Powder coating is a dry finishing process, using finely ground particles of pigment and resin, which are electro statically charged and sprayed onto a part to be coated. The charged particles adhere to the parts until melted and fused into a trough, even coating through the application of heat and energy.
This application method uses a spray gun, which applies an electrostatic charge to the powder particles, which are then attracted to the grounded part. After application of the powder coating, the parts enter a curing oven where, with the addition of heat, the coating chemically reacts to produce long molecular chains, resulting in high cross-link density. These molecular chains are very resistant to breakdown. This type of application is the most common method of applying powders. Powder coatings can also be applied to non-metallic substrates and whichever application process is utilized, powder coating is easy to use, environmentally friendly, cost effective, and long lasting.
It provides a more durable finish than liquid paints can offer, while still providing an attractive finish. Powder coated products are more resistant to diminished coating quality as a result of impact, moisture, chemicals, ultraviolet light, and other extreme weather conditions. In turn, this reduces the risk of scratches, chipping, abrasions, corrosion, fading, and other wear issues.
Powder coating is opted than others, for its high-quality, durable finish, allowing for maximized production, improved efficiencies, and simplified environmental compliance.
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 charged powder particles adhere to the electrically grounded surfaces until heated and fused into a smooth coating in a curing oven. The result is uniform, durable, high quality, and attractive
