Abstract
A non-contact electrostatic liquid dispensing system and method for dispensing continuous, high viscosity viscoelastic nonconductive liquid strands in a controlled manner onto a substrate. An applicator or gun having a charging electrode introduces an electrostatic charge to the high viscosity viscoelastic nonconductive liquid and as charged continuous fibrous strand of high viscosity viscoelastic nonconductive material. One or more electric fields are generated about the discharge path to impart a variety of movements or patterns to the charged continuous fibrous strand of high viscosity viscoelastic nonconductive liquid.
