These materials are used for some food contact applications, playground equipment, shopping carts, hospital shelving and other applications. Few of the thermoplastics have the broad range of appearance properties, performance properties and stability that are required in applications that use thermoset powders. Thermoplastic powders are typically high molecular weight materials that require high temperature to melt and flow. They are commonly applied by fluidized bed applicationRead More …
