Process for monitoring solvent content of green ceramic sheet, and apparatus therefor

摘要

A process for monitoring solvent content in a ceramic green sheet wherein the green sheet is partially supported so that a portion of the sheet is free to sag under the influence of gravity, with or without any additional force to enhance or minimize the sag, measuring the rate of sag of the portion of the sheet free to sag, and comparing the rate of sag to a correlation standard of rate of sag versus solvent content of the green sheet under test to determine acceptability.
