As we know, powder coating is now extremely popular and widely used. Because of its hassle-free process and application, it also maximizes the production of your business. It gives a high-quality and durable end product that gives so much worth to your investment. In powder coating, various types of powder are available which can be used. The following are:
- Epoxy powder – excellent solvent and chemical resistance. It has poor tolerance to heat and light.
- Acrylic powder – good gloss and colour retention on exterior exposure.
- Polyester powder – excellent durability and a high resistance to yellowing under ultra-violet light
- Epoxy polyester hybrid powders – have improved resistance to overbake yellowing. Hybrid powders are now regarded as the main backbone of the powder coatings industry.
- Polyurethane powders – provide good all-around physical and chemical properties as well as giving good exterior durability
These types of powder differ from one another in terms of resistance, stability, impact, flexibility, and hardness. In powder coating in Ontario, the following are the types that the fabricators are dealing with. In performing powder coating, there are also things to watch out for. These are:
- Pretreatment chemical, adhesion, and poor corrosion
- In powder application, watch out for lumps, pinholes and uncovers
- When baking at a high temperature, be mindful of the orange peel, gloss variation, and adhesion
These are just a few things that you need to know and consider in powder coating. Knowing all of these is one thing but getting experts in the application is another. If you want to schedule an appointment with us, you may give us a call and our staff will attend to your needs.
