Abstract: The invention relates to three-layer metal pipe coating compositions based on a powder primer, on a thermoplastic hard adhesive and on a polyolefin cladding. The powder primer contains epoxidized novolak resins, phenolic crosslinking agents and fillers based on crystalline silicic acid modifications. The invention likewise relates to a process for the exterior coating of metal pipes by a three-layer method, in which the powder primer described is applied to the metal pipe, a thermoplastic hard adhesive is applied to the powder primer, and subsequently a polyolefin cladding is applied.

Abstract: A method for obtaining a cured multi-layer coating with good intercoat adhesion, comprising the steps of:a) applying to a substrate a first powder coating composition comprisingi) a polyester resin having a carboxyl functionality of less than two,ii) a crosslinker reactive toward the carboxyl groups of the polyester resin selected from the group consisting of epoxy-functional compounds,wherein the ratio of epoxy groups of the crosslinker to the carboxyl groups of the polyester is between 1.05:1 and 1.9:1,b) applying to the first coating layer at least one additional coating composition comprising a clearcoat includingi) a hydroxyl functional acrylic resin andii) a crosslinker reactive toward the hydroxyl groups on the acrylic resin,c) curing the coating compositions together or sequentially.

Abstract: Powder coating, process for the exterior coating of metal pipes, and use of the powder coating for the single-layer exterior coating of metal pipes. The powder coating comprises epoxy resins, phenolic crosslinking agents, catalysts, fillers and additives. The fillers used are crystalline silicic acids modified with glycidyl groups. The invention also relates to a process for the exterior coating of metal pipes and to use of the coatings for a single layer exterior coating of metal pipes.
