  • Process and apparatus for the curing of coatings on sensitive substrates by electron irradiation
    Patent number: 4246297
    Abstract: This disclosure deals with a new process and apparatus for using a critically adjusted electron beam to cure protective and decorative coatings, including opaque, heavily pigmented coatings, on paper, fabric and other thin substrates which are sensitive to heat or various forms of radiation. The process utilizes restricted dose, energy and process rates to obviate degradation of the substrate during curing and to achieve previously unattainable line speeds in the curing of coatings on products of web, sheet and filamentary geometry.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 6, 1978
    Date of Patent: January 20, 1981
    Assignee: Energy Sciences Inc.
    Inventors: Sam V. Nablo, Alfred D. Fussa
  • Process for curing of adhesives for flocking and texturing on heat-sensitive substrates, by electron-beam radiation
    Patent number: 4100311
    Abstract: The disclosure herein is concerned with critical electron-beam radiation parameters and beam-passage rates and adjustments that have been found to enable high-speed curing of adhesives used to bond flock and similar materials to heat-sensitive substrates that otherwise inherently limit the degree of thermal curing that may be employed as by other means, and consequently limit the speed of curing.
