The substrate is then rotated at speeds up to 10,000 rpm to spread the coating material by centrifugal force. A machine used for spin coating is called a spin coater, or simply spinner. [1] Rotation is continued while the fluid spins off the edges of the substrate, until the desired thickness of the film is achieved.
The thickness of the metal to be spun can vary from about 0.1 mm (0.004 in) to 120 mm (4 or 5 in) on special machines and with hot material. The most common thickness, however, are 0.6 to 1.3 mm (0.024 to 0.050 in). Maximum thickness and size are limited only by the size of the equipment and the power available to make the metal flow.

A familiar example is the household mirror, which typically has a thin metal coating on the back of a sheet of glass to form a reflective interface. The process of silvering was once commonly used to produce mirrors, while more recently the metal layer is deposited using techniques such as sputtering.
The bars are generally made of stainless steel or aluminum and touch the chart at each end, while the center is slightly raised to a desired height in order to obtain the desired film thickness. [3] As with the charts, the bars have to be especially resistant to corrosion because of the corrosive nature of some coatings. [ 4 ]

The bilayers and wash steps can be performed in many different ways including dip coating, spin-coating, spray-coating, flow based techniques and electro-magnetic techniques. [1] The preparation method distinctly impacts the properties of the resultant films, allowing various applications to be realized. [ 1 ]
Fig. 1. A shear formed product: a hollow cone with a thin wall thickness. Shear forming, also referred as shear spinning, is similar to metal spinning. In shear spinning the area of the final piece is approximately equal to that of the flat sheet metal blank. The wall thickness is maintained by controlling the gap between the roller and the ...
