Abstract

<PICT:0869140/IV (a)/1> A composite film is formed on the surface of a continuously moving support by continuously extruding a solution of a film forming material from a stationary hopper on to the surface of the moving support, the viscosity of the dope and the distance of the outlet of the discharge slot of the hopper from the support being such that a layer of dope issuing from the slot forms a self-sustaining and unsupported ribbon bridging the distance between the slot and the support, forming a bead of coating solution against one surface of the ribbon in spaced relation with the support across and in contact with which the ribbon moves in passing to the support, the coatting solution having a viscosity sufficiently low to permit the ribbon to pick up a layer of the coating solution on its surface by a bead action as it moves thereacross, and continuously feeding fresh coating solution to the bead at a rate commensurate with the rate at which it is taken from the bead on the surface of the ribbon to maintain the bead at a given size. As shown in Fig. 2, a high viscosity film dope 11 which is to be cast is extruded under pressure from a hopper (not shown) from a narrow extrusion slot 13 in the form of a ribbon R on to a supporting surface 14, such as a chromium plated wheel or an endless band, continuously moving across the exit end of the hopper. The exit end of the slot 13 is preferably at least 0,030 inch from the supporting surface, and a spacing of 0,060 inch has been found satisfactory. A low viscosity coating solution 21 is allowed to flow by gravity from a second hopper (not shown) through a metering slot 22 which is inclined towards the slot 13 and whose exit end is spaced from and connected to one edge of the exit end of the slot 13 by a wall or surface 24. A bead 23 of the coating solution 21 issuing from the metering slot 22 is formed and maintained in contact with the upper surface of the ribbon R by surface tension forces between the solution and the surface 23 and the lip 25 of the metering slot. In a second embodiment of the invention the coating solution is supplied to the lower surface of the ribbon R and directly engages the supporting surface 14, while in a third embodiment both surfaces of the ribbon R are supplied with coating solution simultaneously.
