adhésif d’épargne

English translation: adhesive mask

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
French term or phrase: adhésif d’épargne English translation: adhesive mask Entered by: B D Finch

French to English translations [PRO] Science - Chemistry; Chem Sci/Eng
French term or phrase: adhésif d’épargne Patent to do with preparation of an organic film on a support... "Parmi les différentes techniques d’application envisagées telles qu’enduction avec un stylo, enduction avec un pinceau, enduction avec un rouleau, (micro)tamponnage, pulvérisation, brumisation, jet d’encre ou dépôt de taches, certaines offrent la possiblité de structurer le film organique greffé. Ainsi, c’est notamment le cas dans la technique de jet d’encre au travers de la programmation du fonctionnement des buses, le tamponnage au travers de la fabrication des motifs du tampon. En variante, cette structuration peut être obtenue, dans le cadre de la présente invention, en utilisant un adhésif d’épargne du type pochoir ou des méthodes habituelles de photolithogravure." ... "Ce traitement localisé de surfaces de verre est mis en œuvre par un procédé de type pochoir où des zones sont épargnées par un adhésif vinyle." I googled "masking adhesive" but this came up only with phrases such as "masking adhesive tape". So I wonder whether anyone knows what this might be?

Tony M France Not so sure... 10:35 Aug 8, 2013  It sounds to me altogether too informal, and possibly even on an inappropriate scale, for what seems to be being discussed here. kashew France Bashiqa's 10:29 Aug 8, 2013  "masking tape" sounds fine. Bashiqa France 10:21 Aug 8, 2013  masking tape or stencil masking film should be ok. Automatic update in 00:
