Simultaneous formation and deposition of multiple ribbon-like streams

摘要

At least one ribbon-like stream of a first coating composition adjacent to and in edge contact with at least one second ribbon-like stream of a second coating composition are deposited on the surface of a support member by establishing relative motion between the surface of the support member and the ribbon-like streams, simultaneously constraining and forming the ribbon-like streams parallel to and closely spaced from each other, contacting adjacent edges of the ribbon-like streams prior to applying the ribbon-like streams to the surface of the support member and thereafter applying the ribbon-like streams to the surface of the support member.
