Part Testing Applications:
Powder coatings are composed of polymer resin systems along with curatives, pigments, leveling agents, flow modifiers, and additives. These components are melt mixed, cooled, and ground into a smooth powder. The powder is applied to metal substrates through electrostatic spray deposition (ESD), where a spray gun applies an electrostatic charge to the powder particles, drawing them to the grounded surface. The coated parts are then cured in an oven, where heat triggers a chemical reaction, forming long molecular chains with high cross-link density, rendering them highly resistant to degradation.
Powder coating is a high-quality finish used on many products encountered daily, offering protection to both industrial machinery and household items. It is far more durable than liquid paint, and is visually appealing. Powder-coated products resist impact, moisture, chemicals, UV light, and harsh weather conditions, making them far less susceptible to wear and damage. Not only is powder coating tough and long-lasting, but it is better for the environment as well as humans.
