What is powder coating?
Powder Coating is a finishing process that uses dry particles of pigment and resin, which are electrostatically charged and sprayed onto a part. The particles coat the part and are held in place by the electric charge. The particles are then melted in an oven and fused onto the parts to become a very tough, durable coating.
Powder coating is an advanced method of applying a decorative and protective finish to a wide range of materials and products that are used by both industries and consumers.The powder coating process uses a solvent free dry mix of plastic resins, pigments and fillers that melt and fuse together when heated. The solid particles of coating are electrostatically charged in a spray gun and carried by low velocity air to the surface of the piece to be coated. The electrostatic charge holds the powder particles in place while the part is cured in an oven at the required temperature. The heat of the oven causes a chemical reaction to occur and the powder to cure, creating a highly durable finish.
Powder coating is a dry finishing process, using finely ground particles of pigment and resin which are electrostatically charged and sprayed onto a part to be coated. The parts to be coated are electrically grounded so that the charged powder particles projected at them adhere to the parts and are held in place until they are baked, melted and fused into a smooth coating in the curing oven. Powder Coated parts are baked out at 400 degrees.
Powder coating is an advanced method of applying a decorative and protective finish to a wide range of materials and products that are used by both industries and consumers. The powder used for the process is a mixture of finely ground particles of pigment and resin, which is sprayed onto a surface to be coated. The charged powder particles adhere to the electrically grounded surfaces until heated and fused into a smooth coating in a curing oven. The result is a uniform, durable, high-quality, and attractive finish. Powder coating is the fastest-growing finishing technology in North America, representing over 20% (and quickly growing!) of all industrial finishing applications.
Powder coating is a method of applying a finish to a wide range of materials that are used by both industries and consumers. The powder used is a mixture of finely ground particles consisting of pigment and resin, which is sprayed onto a surface to be coated. The charged powder particles adhere to the electrically grounded surface until heated which cause them to “gel” into a smooth, consistent and uniform coating. The result is a high-quality and very attractive finish.
