DIFF Subclass Not Allocatable
B05D

PROCESSES FOR APPLYING FLUENT MATERIALS TO SURFACES, IN GENERAL (conveying articles or workpieces through baths of liquid B65G, e.g. B65G49/02)

Introduced: July 1974

Description

This subclass covers processes and methods for depositing liquid, semi-liquid, or atomized materials onto surfaces through various application techniques. It encompasses coating, painting, spraying, dipping, rolling, spreading, and similar deposition methods, excluding those involving atomization covered by B05B. The classification applies across diverse industries including construction, automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing, where surface treatment, protection, or functional modification is required.
