The subject of the invention is a process of continuous coating, with a polymer deposition, of a metallic material in motion inside a chamber under a reduced pressure, in which process the monomer of the said polymer is injected, in the gaseous state, into the said chamber and the conditions for forming a cold plasma are created so as to cause coating of the said material with the said polymer deposition, which comprises, in at least one region of the said chamber, the said material being made to pass through a magnetic field so as to cause a variation in the composition of the said polymer deposition in the said region. The subject of the invention is also a device for the implementation of this process, and a product obtained thereby.

Device for the continuous coating of a metallic material in motion with

A device for low-temperature plasma surface treatment of a stationary metallic material (8) in plate or sheet form, comprising a sealed enclosure (1) into which a plasma-forming gas is introduced, and a suction device (6) for adjusting the pressure of the gas. The enclosure (1) incorporates a support (7) in contact with the material (8) and at least one fixed or movable electrode (10) having an 'active' surface (13) facing the material (8) and defining a space (12) between itself and the surface (9) of the material. The electrode (10) is held at an adjustable distance between its active surface and the surface of the material. A potential difference of given sign and given absolute value is created between the material (8) and the electrode (10), and a low-temperature plasma is generated in the space (12).
