Powder coatings are created using polymeric resins that are combined with pigments, curatives, flow modifiers, leveling agents, and additional additives. They are both solvent- and water-free systems.

Editor’s Note: The following is based on the first half of “Batch versus Automated Finishing Systems,” presented at FABTECH 2023 in Chicago by Nick Dawson, sales account manager at George Koch Sons ...

Powder coating is a finish you’ll find quite often, as it’s no stranger to components exposed to the harshest environments. Hitches, suspension pieces, wheels, and even engine parts are all familiar ...

Powder coating is now preferred over liquid coating and has also been extensively employed in numerous industries due to its negligible VOC (volatile organic compound) emission, high solid content, ...

Powder coating is the process by which certain types of metal are coated with paint in a powder form. The part is sprayed with or dipped in the powder, which is electrostatically charged. The parts ...

With the environmental regulations becoming more stringent and awareness of consumers increasing to protect environment, an urgent problem is to reduce the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

You may be curious about colors and outcomes, but it’s all just gibberish if you don’t know what powder coating is. So, let’s start at the beginning. What is powder coating? Powder coating is a dry ...

For parts with lower temperature thresholds, such as composites, an ultraviolet (UV) curable powder coating can be an ideal solution. Source (All Images) | Keyland Polymer From aerospace and ...

The authors experiment with a resonant acoustic mixer as a method for dry powder coating. Efficient handling and transport of fine-particle powders can be difficult because of the highly cohesive ...

[Pete] had a friend who would powder coat metal parts for him, but when he needed 16 metal parts coated, he decided he needed to develop a way to do it himself. Some research turned up the fluid bed ...
