Understanding the Process of Powder Coating

Powder coatings consist of a mixture of polymer resin systems, curatives, pigments, and additives. These pigments are finely ground to a consistency akin to flour. Using an electrostatic spray deposition method through a spray gun, the powder is applied onto the surface. The coated item is then placed in a curing oven, where the heat facilitates the formation of seamless, durable paint layers with elongated molecular structures.

Environmentally-Friendly Innovation

With no use of harsh chemicals or solvents that need to evaporate, powder coating stands at the forefront of green technology. Although often confused with liquid paint, powder coating is applied across numerous applications.

Benefiting from its durable qualities and environmental consciousness, manufacturers have embraced powder coating for an extended period. To gain more insight, contact our team at Specialized Coatings.
