Abstract
Abstract A process for curing a coating of plastisol or organosol on a hollow massive object by maintaining sufficient concentration of latent solvent in and near the coating to permit coalescence of the coating at temperatures above the boiling point of the latent solvent. Internal heating of the object is used.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
75 words
A process for coating a hollow object with a plastisol or organosol coating composition containing a solvent wherein the hollow object is coated on the outside with the composition, the object is heated internally so that the object itself reaches temperatures for curing the coating before or not later than the outer layers of the coating, and an atmosphere of latent solvent is maintained in contact with the coated surface of the object during curing.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
75 words
A process for coating a hollow object with a plastisol or organosol coating composition containing a solvent wherein the hollow object is coated on the outside with the composition, the object is heated internally so that the object itself reaches temperatures for curing the coating before or not later than the outer layers of the coating, and an atmosphere of latent solvent is maintained in contact with the coated surface of the object during curing.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
14 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the internal heating is done by hot gases.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
14 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the internal heating is done by electrical means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
The process of claim 1 wherein latent solvent evaporating from the coating is maintained in contact with the coated surface by a sealed enclosure having surfaces proximate to the coated surface.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
39 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the heating is done in an enclosure and the latent solvent is maintained in contact with the coated surface by adding latent solvents to the atmosphere in the enclosure from an external source.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
15 words
The process of claim 1 using an organosol which comprises polyvinyl fluoride and latent solvent.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
15 words
The process of claim 1 using a plastisol which comprises polyvinyl fluoride and latent solvent.
