Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a curtain coating process for coating substrates with a stable curtain and a uniform coating at low flow rates wherein a free-falling curtain of an aqueous composition comprising a high solids content is coated onto the moving substrate at a flow rate per unit die length value (Q) equal to or inferior to 10-4 m3/(s.m), the said high solids content composition comprising a polymeric rheology modifier and a non-ionic surfactant. The invention relates in particular to a curtain coating process for coating fibrous substrates such as paper or board. The invention also relates to a coated product.
