Light Fixture Thermoset Powder Coating Antique Copper Appearance CE Standard

RAL1034 Pastel yellow electrostatic thermoset powder coating for Light Fixtures

Antioxidant—A compound that reduces polymeric degradation caused by heat. The thermal degradation of a polymer can cause discoloration (typically yellowing) and a reduction in coating durability and mechanical performance. Antioxidants can be primary or secondary. Primary antioxidants can be used alone or with secondary antioxidants.

Binder—The resinous component of a powder formula that provides the film-formation of the coating. The binder is comprised of the resin, crosslinker and binder additives such as catalyst, flow agent, and degassing agent.

Catalyst—A compound that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without being consumed by the chemical reaction. Also described as an accelerator. Catalysts are used to lower the cure temperature and/or cure time of a thermosetting powder coating.

Colorant Pigment—A material comprised of insoluble particles that provide color and opacity. Pigments produce color by inherently absorbing certain wavelengths of visible light (ranging from approximately 380 to 730 nanometers). This absorption is observed then processed by the human eye and is interpreted by what humans describe as color.

Crosslinker—A relatively low molecular weight oligomer possessing two or more chemical groups capable of reaction with thermosetting polymers. Crosslinker is synonymous with “curing agent” and hardener.
