Coating processes on thermoplastics are multifaceted, and require precise engineering and quality controls. The effects of paint chemistry, plastic compatibility and surface quality are essential for product performance. Single-component lacquer, two-component thermosets and UV coating technologies are effective for painting and coating polypropylene substrates, and they are available in water-based chemistries.
New conductive gelcoats with graphene nanotubes as a protecting layer on top of fiber-reinforced plastics (FRPs) grant engineers and designers the ability to produce special surfaces and uniformly coat all final parts regardless of their conductive and non-conductive nature.
Recent energy-curable resin developments respond to the increasing demand for suitable oligomers for coatings on plastics in different segments such as consumer electronics, cosmetic packaging and automotive interiors for different specifications and aesthetic requirements.
This article will describe the individual properties and coating formulations for each of the three resins in this system before explaining how they can be combined into one innovative coating system that provides exceptional adhesion as well as chemical and scratch resistance.
Traditional two-pack PUR technology combined with surface-modified nanosilica particles results in increased scratch and abrasion resistance in transparent, high-gloss coatings for plastics.
AkzoNobel has completed the acquisition of the coatings business of Korean SSCP. SSCP is a leading Korean specialty plastics coatings company and has a strong position in the Korean mobile phone market and also supplies coatings to the wider consumer electronics industry.
