An exterior durable powder coating specially designed to withstand high temperatures in the range 250-600°C. Possible uses for the product include: • Gas barbeques • Heat exchangers • Exhaust piping • Cookware <b>Application Details:</b> The system has been designed for electrostatic application. A version for Tribo application is available on request. The product achieves best results when sprayed to a dry film thickness (DFT) of 40µm (microns) or less. A thicker film results in a steady reduction in the adhesion properties of the coating. Care should be taken in the choice of pre-treatment used as the pretreatment itself may degrade at higher temperatures.
From 10 – 14 m2/kg at 50 microns film thickness.
Store between 5°C - 25°C. When not in use, cans must be kept sealed
Store in a dry, cool (<20ºC) environment – 6 months.
General
All tests carried out on degreased and zinc phosphated steel at a coating thickness of 40 microns. Mechanical properties, especially impact resistance, will improve with full curing conditions.
Heat Resistance
260°C for 3 hours – excellent adhesion
400°C for 2 hours – good adhesion†
500°C for 2 hours – excellent adhesion
600°C for 2 hours – excellent adhesion
Please note that the poorer adhesion at 400°C is due to sintering occurring
between 400 and 420°C.
