Publication number: 20140193583Abstract: A method and device for coating with polyimide solution are provided. The method includes the following steps: placing a glass substrate onto a support surface to form a face contact therebetween; heating the glass substrate to a preset coating temperature through the support surface; and coating the glass substrate with the polyimide solution. With the glass substrate heated before being coated, the polyimide solution diffusion and solvent evaporation during coating can be accelerated, which is conducive to controlling the temperature uniformity and consistency and preventing the cloud-like spots. The glass substrate in face contact with the support plate is more conducive to being fully heated, and can prevent the glass substrate from being heated non-uniformly due to the contact of the glass substrate with the supporting legs, thereby preventing the foot-like spots.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2013Publication date: July 10, 2014Applicant: Shenzhen China Star Optoelectronics Technology Co., Ltd.Inventor: Ming Liu

Publication number: 20140178600Abstract: The present disclosure provides a coating method and a coating device. The coating method includes: heating a to-be-coated area of a to-be-coated member; and coating the heated to-be-coated area of the to-be-coated member. Therefore, by pre-heating the to-be-coated area of the to-be-coated member, the temperature of the to-be-coated area of the to-be-coated member is increased to reduce the temperature difference between the to-be-coated area of the to-be-coated member and the coating air flow, which prevents the mixture contained in the coating air flow from generating crystalline material on the to-be-coated area of the to-be-coated member. Thus, the coating layer can be stuck to the to-be-coated area directly and tightly without block from the crystalline material located therebetween, and is prevented from falling off easily to improve the success rate and stability of the coating operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 26, 2012Publication date: June 26, 2014Applicant: SHENZHEN CHINA STAR OPTOELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventors: Wenda Chen, Chujen Wu
