  • Water based crackle finish and a method for application thereof
    Patent number: 5601876
    Abstract: A water based crackle finish for surfaces includes a base coating having a low molecular weight polymer dissolved in an aqueous solution. Disposed on the dried base coating is a coating having an aqueous emulsion of a high molecular weight polymer which is dried. If desired, a stain coating, a sealer coating and a glaze coating and combinations thereof may be disposed on the surface under the base coating. Also, if desired, a fly-speck coating and a top coating may be applied over the crackle coating. A method of applying the coating is disclosed.

  • Process for preparing polymeric materials for application to printed circuits
    Patent number: 4937121
    Abstract: A process for preparing curable, aqueous strippable, polymeric materials for application, in succession, as masks, to a specific area of each of a plurality of printed circuit boards that is to be protected from the stripping and plating processes associated with gold finger plating, during the fabrication thereof, includes forming a coating of substantially identical, uniformly spaced, areas of polymeric material on a continuous length of carrier web, applying a cover coating over the carrier web and the uniformly spaced areas of polymeric material with the cover coating having a width substantially the same as that of the carrier film, and winding up in a roll the continuous length of carrier web and the cover coating with the uniformly spaced polymeric material sandwiched therebetween.
