DEFINITION

Classification: 427/493

Application of plural diverse energy sources to polymerize (e.g., electromagnetic wave plus resistance heat, ultraviolet wave plus infrared wave, etc.):

(under subclass 487) Processes wherein more than one type of energy source is utilized to influence the polymerization of the applied coating.

(1) Note. The multiple energy applications may be used simultaneously or sequentially.

(2) Note. The following is an example of the type of claimed subject matter which is proper for this subclass. a. A claim drawn to a process of polymerizing a coating by employing (1) a form of radiation and (2) resistance heat or (1) ultraviolet radiation and (2) infrared radiation.
