Powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing,
dry powder. The main difference between a conventional liquid paint and a
powder coating is that the powder coating does not require a solvent to
keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form. The
coating is typically applied electrostatically and then cured under heat
to allow it to flow and form a "skin." The powder coating process is
used to create a hard finish that is tougher than conventional paint,
making it more resistant to scratches, chipping, and fading. It is
commonly used on metals, such as aluminum, steel, and iron, as well as
on household appliances, automotive parts, and outdoor furniture. Powder
coating is an environmentally-friendly option as it produces less waste
and emissions than traditional liquid coatings. Powder Coating,Galvanized Iron Sheet,Sheet Metal,Decorative Metal Sheets Suzhou Gold ant Precision Sheet Metal Co.,Ltd , https://www.jmysheetmetal.com
