Powder coating is a dry finishing process that has become extremely popular. Powder coating is used on a wide array of products. More and more companies specify powder coatings for a high-quality, durable finish, allowing for maximized production, improved efficiencies, and simplified environmental compliance. Used as functional (protective) and decorative finishes, powder coatings are available in an almost limitless range of colors and textures, and technological advancements have resulted in excellent performance properties.
Advantages over other coating processes
1. Environment friendly. Powder coatings contain no solvents and release little or no amount of volatile organic compounds (VOC) into the atmosphere.
2. More thicker coatings without running or sagging than conventional liquid coatings.
3. Perfect color consistency. Powder coated items generally have fewer appearance differences than liquid coated items between horizontally coated surfaces and vertically coated surfaces.
4. A wide range of speciality effects are easily accomplished using powder coatings that would be impossible to achieve with other coating processes.
5. Curing time is significantly faster with powder coatings compared to liquid coatings especially when using ultraviolet cured powder coatings or advanced low bake thermosetting powders.
Powder Coating Process
The Powder coating process involves three basic steps: raw material preparation or the pre-treatment, the powder coating application and curing.
Powder Coating Substrate Considerations
Before applying the powder coating material, you must first consider the substrate material that you will be coating. It is very important to have a clear understanding of the true composition of the surface of the part.
ALUMINUM:
ALUMINUM CASTING
COLD/HOT ROLLED STEEL
CAST IRON
BRASS
COPPER
ZINC
STAINLESS STEEL
Powder Coating Properties:
Coating Properties
Mechanical Properties
Pencil hardness GB/T 6739-1996 H-2H
Adhesion (cross-cut method) GB/T 9286-1998 Grade 0
Bending test GB/T 6742-1986 ≤ 2mm
Impact test GB/T 1732-1993 ≥50kg.cm
Cupping test GB/T 9753-1988 ≥7mm
Corrosion Resistance
Salt spray test GB/T 1771-1991 >500 hours,
no change, crossion width at crossing ≤ 2mm
Damp heat test GB/T 1740-1979 >1000 hours,
mild loss of gloss
Temperature resistance 100°C/48 hours, excellent gloss retention
Powder Coating Colours
RALAL Range, Pantone Range, and other Natural Colour Systems (NCS)
If you have a Powder Coating Colour requirement that we do not stock we are usually able to source powders from the above ranges within 48 hours.
Powder Coating Gloss Level
Gloss is measured as a percentage.
1. Matt Powders are between 20% and 30% gloss.
2. Semi-gloss Powders are usually around 60-65% gloss.
3. Gloss Powders at least 80% and can be 85%.
Powder Coating finishes
1. Textured Powder Coating:
2. Ripple/Leatherette Powder Coating.
3. Hammerite Finish Powder Coating.
4. High Temperature Powder Coating.
5. Anti-Bacterial Powder Coating.
6. Clear or Tinted Powder Coatings.
Application Field
1. In automotive applications:
a) some primers used on bodywork have converted to powder. This has given improved coating quality and provided ecological advantages.
b) where a functional as well as a decorative finish is desirable powder coatings are being used increasingly eg.
i. - wheels,
ii. - bumper bars,
iii. - mirror frames,
iv. - oil filters,
v. - battery trays,
vi. - coil springs and
vii. - heads.
2. Appliances
a) Specially formulated, hard and scratch resistant powder coatings are replacing the energy-intensive porcelain finishes on washer tops and lids.
b) Powder coatings are being used on range housings, freezer cabinets, drier drums, and microwave oven cavities.
c) Outdoor furniture, farm and garden implements and garden tractors also are being finished with powder coating materials. - Interior fluorescent light reflectors are coated using a highly reflective, very thin powder coating.
d) Exterior lamp housings on highway and parking deck fixtures are coated with specially formulated powder which give ultra violet light protection and added corrosion protection

The air-conditioner clutch drive disc bolt of the imported Acura MDX car in this recall has poor manufacturing, which may cause the bolt to loosen and break, causing the air conditioner clutch drive disc to fall off, resulting in failure of the air-conditioning refrigeration function and at the same time due to the drive disc falling off. The drive plate will fall from the bottom of the vehicle to the outside, which may affect the normal driving of the rear vehicle and pose a safety hazard. Honda Techno Industry (China) Investment Co., Ltd. will replace the improved air conditioner compressor drive plate bolts for all recalled vehicles free of charge. If the drive discs fall off and replace the drive discs, the safety hazards will be eliminated.
Honda Technology Industrial (China) Investment Co., Ltd. or Yingge Special Service Store will take the initiative to notify all involved users, and at the same time, the dealership will notify you by telephone, SMS, etc., to arrange inspection and confirmation and software upgrade. Users can also call the Honda VIP service hotline 800-810-8856 (mobile phone dial 400-650-8856) for consultation, to know the details of this recall, or visit the AQSIQ website import and export commodity inspection column (jyjgs.aqsiq .gov.cn), the AQSIQ Defective Product Management Center website ( ) and the WeChat Public Account (AQSIQDPAC) for more information. In addition, you can also call the Quality and FAQ of the Defective Product Management Center of the AQSIQ or the quality hotline of the local entry-exit inspection and quarantine institution: 12365 (switch No. 2), reflecting the problems in the implementation of the recall activities or submitting defects.
