Abstract

Abstract A coating layer of a polymer capable of forming an optically anisotropic melt phase is formed by heat-pressing to a base material a film made of the polymer and having a segment orientation ratio of not greater than 1.3 and then separating the film into two halves so as to leave one of the halves on the base material, thereby obtaining a coated material made of the base material and the thin coating layer. <IMAGE>

Dependent Claim 25 words
A coated material comprising a base material and a coating layer left thereon, which is obtainable by the coating method as defined in Claim 1
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 20 words
The coated material as claimed in Claim 2, wherein the coating layer has a thickness not greater than 15 µm.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 52 words
A coated material which comprises a base material and a coating layer made of a polymer capable of forming an optically anisotropic melt phase and having a thickness not greater than 15 µm for coating the base material, wherein the coating layer has a segment orientation ratio of not greater than 1.3.
