Abstract
Abstract Disclosed is a continuous process for replicating interference patterns in radiation curable coating compositions or materials. Radiation curable coatings are brought into contact with interference patterns borne on the surface of an endless belt or revolving drum. The curable coating which may be supported by a substrate or unsupported is irradiated to cure it at least sufficiently so that it can be stripped from the replicating surface.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim
116 words
In a method of forming a plastic film or sheet on or against a release sheet with a pattern, setting the film or sheet, and stripping the set film or sheet from the release sheet to leave the pattern replicated in the film or sheet, the improvement wherein the release sheet comprises a substrate having on at least one side thereof a coating of a radiation curable composition or material which has been cured by radiation, the outer surface of the coating having a light wave interfernce pattern having a peak to valley definition of or less than 7,000 angstroms formed by curing the coating in intimate contact with a replicating surface having the interference pattern.
