Powder Coating Application

It is wise to discuss methods jointly with the powder coating applicator. First, the materials used must withstand temperatures of circa 220°C. Second, some commonly used jointing materials are incompatible with all pretreatment systems.

Applications of supercritical fluids for coatings and impregnation of porous and fibrous substrates (e.g., polymer fibers, wood, composite materials) with various chemicals are discussed in a number of articles (50-52). Mandel and Wang (53) reported the use of a solution of polymers diluted with SCCO2 for powder-coating applications. They reported that Ferro Corporation has developed the so-called VAMP process used in the production of powder coatings, new polymers and polymer additives, and various biomaterials, with good potential for productions of pharmaceuticals. 

The utility of the bis cyclic ureas for curing of coatings was demonstrated by dispersing them in a functional acrylic polymer formulated for powder coating application, or by using them as additive in solvent based coatings or in aqueous polymer emulsions for electrocoating. 

Powder coatings are formed of powdery compositions based on synthetic film-forming polymers and technological additives in solid and liquid phases. The methods of powder coating application analyzed from the viewpoint of monitoring Cl concentration on a given coating area are presented below. 

In powder coating applications, one or more coating components are delivered in powdered form during the process. The powder accretes to the particle surfaces in a controlled manner as liquid coating components are applied. 

Aliphatic isohexide polyesters have been studied with various types of applications in mind. Noordover et al. described co-polyesters of succinic acid with combinations of isosor-bide/isoidide and various other diols for powder coating application [35]. Depending on... 

The bisphenol A terminated hardeners are produced using liquid epoxy resins and excess bisphenol A in the resin advancement process. They are essentially epoxy resins terminated with bisphenol A. They are popular in epoxy powder coating applications for rebar and pipe, providing more flexible epoxy coatings than the novolacs. 

The emergence of 1C0% solids, powder-coating applications has led to the development of low and medium molecular weight sol id epoxy resins that exhibit good flow and fast reactivity with solid hardeners for decorative and functional applications. 

The product has established a position in the market due to the weatherability of the resin as a cross-linker for carboxyl-containing polyesters in powder coating applications. 

DR pigments are used in paint applications where their properties are required, such as high-temperature paints and coil-coating paint systems based on fluoropoly-mers, silicone-polyester, and plastisol. The NiSbTi and CrSbTi DR pigments are used in trade sale paints including acrylic house paints, general industrial paints in polyester systems, and fleet colors in thermoset acrylic, thermoplastic acrylic, and polyurethane systems. They are also used in polyester-based powder coating applications. 

In particular, fumed alumina and fumed silica products provide tribo-charging, free-flow, fluidization and anti-blocking in powder coating applications. Typically, fumed alumina is used for tribo coating processes and either fumed silica or hexamethyldisilazane treated fumed alumina is selected for corona coating processes (3).
