UV curable powder coatings combine high performance material chemistry with low energy consuming and high speed finishing technology. UV curable powder coatings are a rapidly developing segment of the coatings industry. Low process temperatures and UV light initiated cure are ideal for substrates such as wood composites, plastics, porous metal materials, and pre-assembled parts with internal heat sensitive components. This paper presents an overview of UV curable powder chemistry and application technology. The paper will focus on how combining UV cured powder coating chemistry with design requirements produce products of exceptional value. |
