Liquid Film Coating

Abstract

Chapter 11 presents pre-metered coating methods for which all the liquid fed into the coating die by a metering device, e.g., a displacement pump, is deposited on the substrate. Therefore, the average wet film thickness H ∞ is predetermined for a given feed flow rate V*, coating width in the cross-web direction, W, and substrate speed, U, and is independent of rheological properties of the coating liquid.
