The significant difference between powder coating and solvent based coating is that the
dispersion medium is different. In solvent based coating, organic solvents are used as
dispersion medium, while in the coating, the compressed air is used as a dispersion medium.
The coating is dispersed in the coating, and the particle size of the coating can not be
adjusted. Therefore, it is important to be suitable for electrostatic spraying of powder
particle size. The powder particle size of more than 90 microns, in electrostatic spraying,
particles with charge to mass ratio is small, large particle gravity will soon exceed the
air dynamic and static electricity, therefore, large granular powder has larger adsorption
kinetic energy, is not easy to work.
In the process of using powder coating, there are many
matters need to pay attention to, for example, for powder bucket, spraying room and
recovery system should avoid different color powder pollution, so every time the color
change must be clean and purge. In addition, in order to make the characteristics of powder
coating can fully exert and prolong the service life of the coating film, the surface of
the broken coating is first strictly carried out before the surface treatment. Also, check
immediately after spraying, if found defects should be timely treatment, if after curing
defects are found, the only local small range without affecting, the coated surface
decoration, can use the same color powder and acetone diluted to repair, if the scope is
large and affects the surface quality, use sandpaper, or again. Use paint remover to remove
the coating, re Suo powder.
The application of the powder coating can be done right
guarantee for the safety of construction, in the construction process, we should pay
attention to avoid storage in susceptible to water, organic solvent, oil and other
materials contaminated sites; secondly, to stay away from the fire, avoid direct sunlight,
should be in a well ventilated place in the temperature below 35 DEG C; spraying chamber
the concentration of floating dust, try to control the safe concentration, avoid dust
explosion danger; powder coating after use do not exposed to the air, should be stamped or
turn tightly to prevent debris mixed.
