Objective The projects aims to the development of environmentally friendly multilayer coil coated products by combining conventional and novel coating and application techniques, the focus being on the reduction of the production costs via energy savings and efficient use of materials by increasing the product recyclability. Improved mechanical properties and durability will be achieved by three layer thick film coatings. Depending on placement of an additional intermediate organic layer, the coil will serve either as a corrosion inhibitor, barrier for gases, or as a top or a clear coat . Potential replacement for conventional thermal curing may be offered by electron beam or ultraviolet curing, possibly in combination with pre- or after heating the paint film by induction heating.
