  • Method for producing a polymer coated metal strip and polymer coated metal strip produced thereby
    Patent number: 12042959
    Abstract: A method for producing a polymer coated metal strip in a continuous coating line, including the subsequent steps of: laminating a thermoplastic polymer film onto at least one side of a metal strip to produce a polymer coated metal strip; post-heating the polymer coated metal strip to temperature sufficiently high to melt the thermoplastic polymer film to reduce orientation and crystallinity of the thermoplastic polymer film to target value; cooling the post-heated polymer coated metal strip; in-line illuminating the laminated polymer film with near-infrared light having one or more or all wavenumbers between 3500 and 9000 cm?1; in-line acquiring back-scattered near-infrared light with a near-infrared spectroscopy detector; calculating near-infrared spectrum from the back-scattered near-infrared light; comparing the calculated near-infrared spectrum to a reference material near-infrared spectrum to determine Conformity Index as measure of the laminated polymer film degree of crystallinity and/or molecular o
