Processing

Pre-treatment

The substrate must be free from oil, grease and oxidation products. The pretreatment depends on the type of substrate and the corrosion protection to be achieved. We recommend the following pretreatments:

Aluminium
  • Chromating according to DIN EN 12487
  • Pre-anodization
  • Chrome-free pretreatment according to GSB International and QUALICOAT specifications
Steel
  • Zinc phosphating
Galvanised steel
  • Zinc phosphating
  • Chrome (III) passivation
  • Chromating according to DIN EN 12487

The suitability of the pretreatment method used is generally to be tested by the coater in advance with appropriate test methods. The minimum requirement for aluminium substrates / galvanised steel components is to carry out a boiling water test with a subsequent cross-cut adhesion and tape test. We refer to the guidelines of the GSB International, Qualicoat and Qualisteelcoat certifications. For further information: see also our special leaflet on pre-treatment (IGP-TI 100).


Coating devices
All conventional electrostatic systems with corona charging.
For the construction and operation of powder coating plants, the following regulations must be complied with: ATEX RL 2014/34/EU, EN 50177, DIN EN 16985.
Recommended film thickness
60 μm - 80 μm
With higher layers, the powder coating becomes insulating.
Curing conditions
TObjectminmax
160 °C15 minutes25 minutes
170 °C10 minutes20 minutes
180 °C8 minutes15 minutes
The oven temperature should be limited to 200°C

In order to determine ideal curing conditions, we recommend practical trials with the respective object and curing oven.
Application
A voltage setting of minimum 50kV is recommended for spraying.
Ideally using a discharge ring (“super corona”) otherwise set the current limit to ≥5µA.
Non-consideration may lead to a significant higher gloss level.
Reclaimability
Small portions of recycled powder can be added, automatically if possible, to the fresh powder. Important: Keep overspray to an absolute minimum.

Protection of coated parts
Coated parts should be packed after cooling with suitable materials without plasticizers. They should be stored protected from the weather to avoid the formation of condensation and thus water spots on the coating.

Cleaning
The coated parts must be cleaned according to the directives RAL-GZ 632 or SZFF 61.01.

Paint removal and disposal
After use, coated goods should be supplied to the normal recycling process. The disposal methods for sludges or residual powders must be observed in accordance with the local official provisions whilst taking Waste Code “080201 Coating Powder Wastes” in accordance with the European Waste Catalogue into consideration.
