-
It is recommended to operate the coater under a fume hood. (Click Pic.3 for detail.)
-
May need a vacuum mixer to remove air bubbles inside slurry to make uniform coatings (Click Pic.4 )
-
You may need a Slurry Viscosity Tester to make coatings consistent (Click Pic.5 for detail.)

Application Note
|
-
Coating thickness is not dependent on or equal to the gap between the slot die head and substrate.
-
Usually, the gap shall be larger than the coating thickness. Coated thickness is strongly dependent on slurry viscosity, coating speed, and flow speed. ( Lower viscosity, low flow rate, and low speed will result in a thinner film Please practice finding the best parameters which suitable for you
-
Example 5% carbon+ polymer, viscosity: 500mPa·s, substrate: Al foil of 16 um,
-
Gap: 200 um, Slurry feeding rate:: 0.1 ml/minute , Coating speed: 12mm/s
-
Coated film thickness: 10 um +/- 2 um
