1 In addition, the dielectric coating must be strong enoughto withstand repeated passes of the stylus without damage to the coating itself or to the variations in the disc, yet the coating must not be so hard as to unduly wear the stylus.
5 Present discs employ polymers such as polystyrene for the -:
thin conformal dielectric coating. However, present dielec-tric coating techniques enhance the roughness of the surface .
of the metalli~ed disc causing the stylus to bounce off and back on the metallized surface. Furthermore, present 10 dielectric coatings have little elasticity thus causing ~-rapid wear of the stylus as well as eventual damage to the groove dimensions as the stylus bounces up and down along its spiral path. A conformal dielectric coating Oe poly-p-xylylene meets all but one of the stringent requirements;
the coating is too soft, being capable of providing only about lO0 plays of satisfactory quality.
In addition, after a polymeric dielectric coating has been applied to a disc by conventional means, e.g., vapor deposition, it is often necessary to further harden the coating without disturbing the structure of the disc.
Hardening a polymeric coating involves increasing the degree of crosslinking in the polymer as well as -the molecular weight of the polymer. The most common technique for hardening polymeric coatings, heating the coating, is unacceptable as the necessary temperature for hardening, about 2looF~ is too high for the vinyl disc to withstand without incurring structural defects. Another technique for hardening polymeric coatings, ultraviolet radiation, is not effective for all polymeric coatings.
