Abstract:
Process of powder coating a substrate (1) having at least one part of reduced thickness (5, 6), such as a raised edge. After application of a powder coating material, the substrate is heat cured. During heat curing, the substrate is locally shielded from the heat source (18) at the position of the part of reduced thickness, e.g., by means of a heat shield (2). The heat shield can for example be a perforated plate. Powder coating facility comprising an overhead conveyer with a plurality of jigs (3) for supporting such heat shields.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for coating metal substrates are provided. The methods and systems include sequential application of low flow and high flow powder coatings followed by a single heating step to provide a cured coating. The methods and systems include a marker that allows coating uniformity to be monitored and assessed during application. The described methods provide coatings with optimal surface smoothness and edge coverage.
Abstract:
To lower electrical resistance by increasing the interfacial surface area and the adhesion between a current collector and an active material or an electrolyte, or between the active material and the electrolyte in an all-solid-state battery. In addition, to improve battery performance by eliminating or minimizing residual carbon originating from a binder. A slurry, composed of an electrode active material and a solvent, and a slurry, composed of electrolyte particles and a solvent, can be impacted against a target and thereby attached thereto to form a high-density layer and improve adhesion. Moreover, residual carbon is eliminated or minimized by eliminating or minimizing the content of binders, thereby improving battery performance.
Abstract:
In a powder coating process, a primer step is implemented prior to electrostatically applying the powder coating, either in advance of preheating the object to be coated or subsequent thereto, depending upon the selection of materials used in the object to be coated, the primer material being diluted fabric softener applied in a fine mist spray or fog to the object.

Abstract:
Apparatuses and methods related to improving environmental protection and waste collection from application of deposition material using portable systems that are easier for operators to use on surfaces such as ship hulls are provided. Embodiments include a portable and repositionable deposition material applicator enclosure and application system for applying deposition material on a substrate employing non-adherent deposition material waste removal and selective enclosure coupling and decoupling structures or systems employing magnetic and suction or differential pressure based forces.
Abstract:
This flocking powder coating method comprises: a powder coating attachment step for attaching a powder coating to a base material; a flocking step for attaching, by electrostatic force, a flocking organic filler to the attached powder coating layer; and a fixing step for forming a coating film by curing or hardening a resin included in the powder coating and thereby fixing a portion of the flocking organic filler to the coating film. According to this flocking powder coating method, coating and flocking can be performed without the use of an adhesive.
Abstract:
This invention relates generally to flocked articles and methods for making the same, more particularly to flocked products having a silicone adhesive and methods for making and using the same.
