METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING THERMOPLASTIC ELASTOMER FILM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To manufacture a thin thermoplastic elastomer film excellent in thickness uniformity and reduced in shrinkage or warpage by molding the thermoplastic elastomer film on release paper by direct coating without using a solvent. SOLUTION: In a method for manufacturing the thermoplastic elastomer film, a molten thermoplastic elastomer is supplied to a die coater equipped with a gear pump, and release paper is coated with the thermoplastic elastomer from the die coater.
