Economic advantages of powder coatings
Energy and labor cost reduction, high operating efficiencies, and environmental safety are advantages of powder coating that attract more and more finishers. Great cost savings can be found in each of these areas. When compared with a liquid coating system, a powder coating system has several obvious significant economic advantages. There are also many advantages that may not appear significant by themselves but, when collectively considered, contribute substantial cost savings. Although this chapter will try to cover all cost advantagesRead More …
Advantages of Epoxy Polyester Hybrids
Epoxy powder coatings based on newer technology are known as epoxy-polyester “hybrids” or “multipolymer” systems. This group of powder coatings could be considered simply part of the epoxy family, except that the high percentage of polyester utilized (often more than half the resin) makes that classification misleading. The properties of these hybrid coatings are more closely akin to epoxies than polyesters, with a few notable exceptions. They show similar flexibility in terms of impact and bend resistance, but produce slightlyRead More …

A summary of the key properties of each generic type of thermosetting powder coating
Industrial finishes are custom formulated to individual and end-user requirements. Successful selection depends on a close working relationship between users and suppliers. Selection should be strictly on a demonstrated film performance basis. This is because the film performance of a thermosetting powder coating is completely dependent on the bake it receives in a particular plant, on a particular substrate, with a particular degree of cleanliness, and type of metal pretreatment. Many specialties in the marketplace can cross over the guidelines.Read More …
Repair of parts and hanger stripping in powder coating
The methods of part repair after powder coating can be put into two categories : touch-up and recoat. Touch-up repair is appropriate when a small area of the coated part is not covered and is unable to meet finishing specifications. When hanger marks are not acceptable, touch-up is required. Touch-up also may be used to repair slight damage from handling, machining, or welding during assembly. Recoat is required when a part is rejected because of a large surface area defectRead More …
Why Powder Coating
ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS The excellence of the powder-coated finish is accompanied by substantial cost savings, when compared to liquid coating systems. Since powder contains no VOCs, air used to exhaust the powder spray booth can be recirculated directly to the plant, eliminating the cost of heating or cooling the makeup air. Ovens that cure solvent-based coatings must heat and exhaust huge volumes of air to ensure that the solvent fumes do not reach a potentially explosive level. With no solvent inRead More …
