This second edition of the standard industry text, Powder Coatings Chemistry and Technology contains the latest innovations, trends, and developments which have taken place in chemistry and technology in the last 13 years. With emphasis on the chemistry and film formation of thermosetting powder coatings, coverage includes the parameters that influence powder coatings properties, production and application techniques, potential future developments, improved technology, and the powder coatings market. The coverage of powder coatings has been increased to include super durable and other new resins, the automotive acrylic clear coat, radiation curing (UV and NIR), the coating of wood (MDF), and the replacement of TGIC by alternative crosslinkers. Two additional sections have been devoted to additives for powder coatings and (semi) matte coatings. In addition, the EMB application technology, as well as revised and new production methods, is documented in this volume. The structure of the first edition was retained throughout the update. This is a must have for everyone involved in the powder coatings industry and will remain as the standard text for years to come.
