- Aluminum adhesion of metallized films in laminations
For many years, it has been apparent to film manufacturers, converters and metallizers that there is a wide range in film behavior when it comes to metal adhesion. The largest differences are between substrate types, but there can be variations within substrate families, and with the same substrate between metallizing ......
- Inks, adhesives & accessories
Automatic viscosity controller The Meiseivce automatic viscosity control and measurement system, Model GP-10 Type, reportedly provides ink-consumption savings of 20 percent or more, allowing a rapid return on investment. The unit performs four functions: ink circulation, agitating, viscosity measurement and viscosity control for improved printed and coated products. Its automatic ......
- When the going gets tough, the tough use super durable
powder.
As powder coatings technology advances, the requirements of the end users also change. The demands of coating on aluminium have forced the industry to set extremely tough weathering standards. Thermosetting powders were been developed in Europe around 1964. At that time, only a few epoxy resins were available for the ......

- PVC powder.
Q. Could you please tell me if there is a PVC powder coating that can be used to coat a piece of metal using the same equipment (guns, ovens, etc.) as used to do regular industrial powder coating on metal parts? Are the procedures the same? M.S. A. There are ......
- Effect of plasticizer on the thermal, mechanical, and
anticorrosion properties of an epoxy primer.
The influence of the glass transition temperature and the mechanical and anticorrosion properties of factors such as the amount of plasticizer added to an epoxy primer were investigated by DSC (differential scanning calorimeter), DMA (dynamic mechanical analysis), stress-strain tests, salt fog spray tests, accelerated tests, and electrochemical tests. The addition ......
- Pretreatments: the next generation: emerging technologies can save energy, ease environmental concerns.
Concerns over rising energy costs and tightening environmental discharge limitations have driven research and development of alternative pretreatment technologies. These products may be identified by specific trade names or by general descriptions such as nanotechnology, silane technology or phosphorus-free pretreatment. Most of these emerging technologies react similarly because they contain ......
