  • Publication number: 20070212492
    Abstract: A method for producing a coated sheet which involves an application step of applying a fluid containing a resin material and a solvent on a traveling base film continuously, and a drying step of drying a coating film applied on the base film in the above application step, wherein the above application fluid has a viscosity of 70 to 8,000 mPa sec, and the fluctuation rate for the speed of the traveling of the above base film is controlled to 3.0% or less. The above method can be suitably employed for forming a coating film being free from the failure in its appearance and having a uniform thickness.
