Abstract
A abstract is coated with a coating material by rubbing substantially dry discrete particles of the coating material across the surface of the substrate with a sufficient rate of energy input to cause them to adhere. Preferably, the particles are carried on the surface of a soft, resilient buffing wheel rotating sufficient rapidly to give peripheral speeds of from 2 to 200 m/s. Exemplified coating materials include metals, metal oxides and plastics.
Claims2
A method of coating a paper, fabric or plastic substrate with a material other than PTFE, comprising rubbing discrete substantially dry particles of the coating material with a rotary applicator, which is in sliding contact with the substrate, across the surface of the substrate with sufficient force and at sufficient speed relative to said surface to cause the material to become deposited on the surface of the substrate in an adherent film, which film is non-microporous and is non-granular in appearance.
