  • Method and apparatus for coating fusible interlinings
    Patent number: 4144538
    Abstract: A fabric substrate is passed through an electric field in order to set up a charge on the surface of the substrate and to thereby cause a particulate adhesive material stored in a container over which the substrate passes to be attracted to the surface of the substrate by electrostatic attraction. The coated substrate is subsequently heated to melt the adhesive material so that it agglomerates and adheres permanently to the substrate, thus forming a fusible interlining.
