What Are The Advantages Of Fusion Bonding?
The coating application system consists of numerous electrostatic spray guns that uniformly deposit the epoxy powder onto the blast cleaned, chemically treated and preheated surface of the pipe. The correct surface temperature allows the fusion of the powder and assures the polymerization process, which is completed with a final cooling stage. Once applied and cured, the epoxy powder achieves an extremely hard surface with excellent adhesion to the steel surface. Manufacturing Process: The process of applying fusion-bonded epoxy coating to steel reinforcement involves four major steps: surface preparation, heating, powder application and curing. Epoxy coatings are environmentally friendly materials. Unlike many paints, the fusion-bonded epoxy coatings used for steel reinforcement do not contain appreciable solvents or other environmentally hazardous substances. Systems used to apply the coating are very efficient, resulting in little material loss to the atmosphere and little waste dis
