Powder Coating News

Due to the huge environmental pressure, powder coatings continue to replace liquid paint has become the mainstream, as powder coatings and coating technology improvements, powder coating applications. Powder coatings and coating technology improved main source white automobile industry, the appliance industry and general industrial demand growth, including raw materials, milling and coating technology show improvement. Powder coating applications in the automotive industry continues to expand, the car chassis, interior parts, wheels and body powder coating. The technical improvements of theRead More …

Manufacturers may apply an electrostatic powder coating to many types of products. This type of finish is primarily used on metals ranging from steel to aluminum. It’s also used to finish a variety of consumer goods, from wire shelving to lawn furniture. Electrostatic powder coating is also used on cars and other vehicles, and remains a popular method of finishing exterior metal siding. This product may contain a variety of materials, depending on the product and manufacturer. Many include anRead More …

Coating technology, the definition of the concept of the painting process and the thinking of the current argument, I believe that the structure of the the coating technical knowledge system should be the main factors (elements) and a secondary factor; major factors should be divided into five major elements: coating materials (chemical materials and accessories), painting equipment (including tools), the painting environment, painting process, painting Management. Specific analysis and study of the five elements. The coating material is chemical materialsRead More …

Dusting equipment electrostatic powder coating commonly known as “electrostatic spray”. The spray can be manual, automatic or manual + automatic. 100% of the spray material is a solid powder, the free powders can recycle the paint recycling rate up to 98%. Suspension of the transport system, a high degree of automation. The coated microporous less, good corrosion resistance, and can be a thick film. Electrostatic powder coating based on having an atomizing Tsui (the paint atomizing), and the discharge stageRead More …

One of the big advantages of the SC Johnson hydroxy and carboxy acrylics is their compatibility with conventional electrostatic powder coating systems. This makes it possible for custom coaters to use powders formulated with these chemistries on their application lines without fear of major contamination problems. Hydroxy acrylic / IPDI systems can be formulated over a relatively wide gloss range. In lower gloss versions,they easily pass the new weathering requirements of the automotive industry . This makes them the preferredRead More …

TGIC Replacement chemistries Acrylic graft copolymers containing free glycidyl groups These hardeners,which include glycidyl methacrylate(GMA) curatives have recently been promoted as crosslinkers for carboxy polyester. Since the cure mechanism is an addition reaction, film builds that exceed 3 mils(75 um) are possible. So far, accelerated weathering tests of polyester GMA combinations indicate results similar to those of TGIC. Some formulating problems exist when acrylic graft copolymers are used ,for example, flow and leveling properties are relatively poor. New carboxy polyesterRead More …

TGIC Replacement chemistries Tetramethoxymethyl glycoluril (TMMGU) Hydroxyl polyester/TMMGU combinations,such as powderlink 1174,developed by Cytec, may offer an excellent opportunity to replace TGIC in applications that require thinner film builds. As this chemistry’s cure mechanism is a condensation reaction, some of the application problems described in the section on HAA curatives also occur with this curative. However, recent evaluations and data show that pin hole free coatings can be obtained with hydroxyl polyester / TMMGU combinations even when film builds exceedRead More …
