INFORMATION ABOUT POWDER COATING YOU SHOULD KNOW
Although we frequently hear about products with electrostatic paint in our daily lives, not all of us are familiar with this type of paint. Adorn Museum will therefore explain powder coating technology and its use in the process of finishing interior products to readers in the article below.
1. What is electrostatic paint (powder coating)?
A common coating technique today is powder coating, which uses electromagnetic principles to strengthen the bond between the paint film and the coated metal surface. Iron and steel are the only conductive metal materials that can be coated with powder. because the metal surface has a negative charge and the powder coating is applied with a positive charge. According to the electrical current theory, when positive charges (+) and negative charges (-) come into contact during painting, they will link together and help the paint adhere firmly and uniformly to the metal surface. As a result, powder coating will have higher quality than traditional manual painting techniques.
2. Compare powder coating and regular paint
|
Criteria |
Powder coating |
Regular paint |
|
Expense |
Cost reductions due to effective operations, lack of additional labor or material costs,... |
The procedure of applying paint is frequently less effective. The cost of handling the extra color falls on the customer. |
|
Safety |
Workers are shielded, provided with a spray gun, and kept away from the paint |
It is simple to adhere to the paint color because the installer paints directly on the product's surface using a brush or brush |
|
Environmental sensitivity |
Contains no organic chemicals or solvents, making it environmentally safe |
Ingredients with high solvent content pollute the environment |
|
Efficiency |
Products with powder coating provide more uniform, thick, and durable protection |
The paint finish is frequently thin and uneven |
|
Color |
The color is conventional, lovely, and unaffected by UV light |
Over time, color fading is simple |
|
Reliability |
Since modern technology is intimately related to powder coating, it is challenging to peel and scratch for a long time |
Environmental influences are easily felt and easy to peel |
3. Use of electrostatic paint in the manufacture of furniture
Although numerous metals can be coupled with powder coating to increase quality, consumers "favor" three "basic" materials: powder-coated iron, powder-coated aluminum, and powder-coated stainless steel.
- Powder coated iron
Iron is the main component of powder-coated iron, which has a paint outside coating. This is one of the most often used building and decorating materials. Tables and chairs for the dining room or outdoors are frequently made of iron that has been powder coated. These products have incredibly varied designs, and are incredibly durable, respectably certain, and extremely safe.
- Powder coated aluminum
Due to the exceptional benefits of powder-coated aluminum, replacing conventional materials like natural wood, original iron, or plastic with this material is a trend that many homeowners adore. The powder-coated aluminum panels meet the strict aesthetic criteria and deliver ideal quality thanks to their firm, lightweight, durable aluminum core on the inside and thin, lovely, super-sticky coating on the outside. Aluminum that has been powder coated is frequently utilized to make doors, completing the interior of the structure.
- Powder-coated stainless steel
Construction companies are quite interested in the alloy inox, also referred to as stainless steel. The appearance and quality of the stainless steel sheet are substantially enhanced when it is heavily powder coated, making it one of the most popular materials at present. Users rely on these products when selecting them to embellish their homes. Examples include powder-coated stainless steel doors, gates, shelves, and shelves. The appearance of stainless steel furniture and equipment that has been electrostatically painted provides the area with a fresh, distinctive, and more "quality" look.
