Thermoplastic Coating
Thermoplastic powders are specifically designed to provide a tough, long lasting coating to metals and are suitable for many applications in demanding environments.
Thermoplastic is selected as a coating of choice when products need to be durable, withstand the elements and look attractive.
It is a polymer that has a glossy appearance and it is supplied in many colours.
Thermoplastic coatings outperform other coating materials in terms of performance, durability and environmental impacts. Call Midland Paint & Powder Coaters today on 0121 766 8267.
Thermoplastic has been specifically designed to provide a tough, long lasting coating for exterior applications to mild steel, galvanised steel and aluminium destined for the most hostile of environments.
Thermoplastic is resistant to stress cracking, adverse weather conditions, detergents, salt spray, UV light, acid rain and typical airborne pollutants.
The coating maintains excellent adhesion to the metal substrate without the need for a separate primer. The material also provides good adhesion and impact resistance.
Standard polyester powder is applied at 50 to 100 microns Thermoplastic is applied at 150 to 250 microns in a single application. The thicker coating ensures the edges are well covered.
Thermoplastic coatings are excellent in marine environments with high resistance to sea water which will provide a long lasting coating even in the most aggressive of atmospheres.
It will not leach anything hazardous into the environment and is an ideal coating material for the food and water industries. Accelerated weathering tests indicate that thermoplastic coating will remain in a stable condition for 40 years outdoors in Northern Europe, 30 years in Southern Europe and 20 years in tropical environments.
