Do you know what kind of material plastic powder is?

Everyone should have heard of spray painting technology, which involves surface treatment of powder coatings through high-pressure spraying, resulting in products with a more natural surface. During the spraying process, the staff will use plastic powder as a material. What is the difference between it and paint?

Plastic powder and paint are two different processes. The spraying effect is good, the cost is low, the color is correct, and it is beautiful. Paint is expensive and the effect is average. Polyester paint or fluorocarbon paint can have better results. And doors and windows are generally used in environments with low corrosiveness, and the sealing performance of plastic is sufficient. Paint is used in environments with high corrosiveness. The final sprayed product coating is difficult to repair after being damaged, while paint is easier.

Plastic powder is a thermosetting powder coating used for electrostatic spraying.

Phenolic resin, also known as electric wood or electric wood powder. Originally colorless or yellow brown transparent material, it is often sold in the market with coloring agents to appear in colors such as red, yellow, black, green, brown, blue, etc., in the form of particles or powders. Resistant to weak acids and weak bases, decomposes when exposed to strong acids, and corrodes when exposed to strong bases. Insoluble in water, soluble in organic solvents such as acetone and alcohol. Phenol is condensed with formaldehyde. It includes: linear phenolic resin, thermosetting phenolic resin, and oil soluble phenolic resin. Mainly used for producing compression molding powder and laminated plastics; Manufacturing clear varnish or insulation, corrosion-resistant coatings; Manufacturing daily necessities and decorations; Manufacturing sound insulation, thermal insulation materials, etc. Common high-voltage electrical sockets, furniture plastic handles, and other phenolic resins, abbreviated as PE. Phenolic resin is a yellow, transparent, amorphous block like substance that appears slightly red due to the presence of free molecules. It has a specific gravity of 1.25-1.30 and is easily soluble in alcohol but insoluble in water. It is stable in water, weak acids, and weak bases. Resin made by condensation of phenol and formaldehyde under catalytic conditions, neutralization, and water washing. Due to the different catalysts used, they can be divided into two categories: thermosetting and thermoplastic. Phenolic resin has excellent acid resistance, mechanical properties, and heat resistance, and is widely used in industries such as anti-corrosion engineering, adhesives, flame retardant materials, and grinding wheel manufacturing. Phenol formaldehyde resin is the earliest industrialized synthetic resin.

Plastic powder, also known as powder coating, is in the form of a powder. When storing, attention should be paid to waterproofing and moisture resistance, and it is more environmentally friendly to use. After use, the remaining powder coating can still be used well as long as it is well stored for the next time.
