This book was released on 2003 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book addresses recent developments which have contributed to powder coating's ever-increasing favorability over liquid coating. Since the publication of the last edition, this process has been adapted to a wider range of applications, notably for high-temperature and temperature-sensitive products. Equipment has been greatly improved, achieving faster color change, increasing transfer efficiency, and reducing overall powder usage. Environmental requirements have prompted many companies to switch to powder coating. 'Users Guide to Powder Coating, Fourth Edition' combines information on the latest breakthroughs in the industry (notable ultraviolet-curable materials for plastic and wood products, and improved systems) and tried-and-true guidelines from the previous edition (including factors like material selection, design considerations, surface preparation, quality control and testing, trouble shooting and safety, and more), so you can achieve superior finishes with efficiency.
