Patent ID: 7525720

Claim:
A process of producing a sheet for electrophoretic display in which a layer containing a microcapsule for electrophoretic display is formed on an electrically conductive layer of a substrate sheet with the electrically conductive layer formed on a substrate film, the process comprising: coating, on a strip-shaped substrate sheet in which an electrically conductive layer is formed on a substrate film, a coating solution containing a microcapsule for electrophoretic display by using a coating apparatus of a kiss•reverse coating system having a coating roll in which a gravure pattern is discontinuously formed in an axial direction of an external circumferential surface; and after the coating of the coating solution, drying the coating solution to form a layer containing the microcapsule on the electrically conductive layer to obtain a sheet for electrophoretic display in which a microcapsule supporting part on which the microcapsule is supported and an electrically conductive layer exposing part on which the electrically conductive layer is exposed are alternately arranged in a width direction of the sheet, the strip-shaped substrate sheet being moved during at least a part of a period in which the coating of the coating solution is carried out.
