Solvent Screening Studies
By Derek Hammill, Defect Analyst
Contract coating manufacturers possess a wide range of expertise and tools to conduct the complex processes required for roll-to-roll coating. Among the specialties involved in roll-to-roll coating, solvent screening studies require a skill set and enhancement by experience across a number of markets and solvents, plus a deep knowledge about its impact on coating and drying. Whether a customer presents a polymer for advice on how to dissolve and coat, or provides a target solvent or solvents for the contract manufacturer to dilute into a better fit for a coating model, there are several variables to determine how it works.
