What are the differences between plastic powder and paint?

The difference between plastic powder and paint lies in their production principles and uses. Plastic powder is a mixture of plastic powder and pigment that is sprayed onto the surface of an object, and then melted and solidified at high temperatures to form a tough coating. And paint is a mixture of pigments and solvents applied to the surface of an object, and the solvent evaporates to form a uniform coating. In addition, plastic powder is widely used in fields such as metal products and automotive components, while paint is suitable for fields such as construction and furniture.

Different effects

Plastic powder spraying can achieve good results, low cost, bright colors, and beautiful appearance. In contrast, the cost of paint is expensive and the effect is average, requiring the use of polyester paint or fluorocarbon paint to achieve better results. Generally speaking, when doors and windows are used in environments with low corrosiveness, plastic sealing is sufficient. Paint is only needed in environments with high corrosiveness. The plastic powder spraying operation is simple and generally does not result in uneven spraying. Paint usually needs to be applied thicker, so uneven application is prone to occur.

Different uses

Plastic powder is only suitable for painting metal surfaces, while paint can be used on most workpieces.

3. The nature of environmental protection is different.

Plastic powder is an environmentally friendly material that does not contain harmful gases and is harmless to the body. On the contrary, paint usually has a pungent odor.
