Abstract Blade coating process is studied in a nonisothermal analysis of viscous fluid with temperature-dependent viscosity by employing both plane and exponential coaters. The governing expressions are nondimensionalized and simplified under the assumption of lubrication approximation theory. Then, perturbative technique is used to find the solution for velocity, pressure, temperature distribution, and coating thickness. The influence of dimensionless parameter ε, Graetz number Gz, and normalized coating thickness γ on the velocity, maximum pressure, temperature distribution, and pressure gradient is portrayed through graphs, whereas load and coating thickness variations reported in a tabular manner. It is found that maximum pressure, coating thickness, and blade load decreases for temperature variations in viscosity, which leads to improved efficiency of blade coating process and life of the moving substrate.

To meet the need of optical fiber photoreactor designed by mechanism of TiO2 photocatalysis, nanometer TiO2 was coated on the surface of optical fiber by dipping nude fibers into an Al(H2PO4)3-contained TiO2 slurry. Effects of slurry conditions, including content of TiO2 and addition of Al(H2PO4)3 adhesive, on coating thickness and quality were determined. Coating process, especially the effect of coating times, was also concerned. Based on the experimental results, fitting slurry conditions and process parameters were suggested for obtaining high-quality TiO2 coating on optical fiber surface.
