Abstract: A method and apparatus for powder surface treatment by turning the powder into a fluidized layer while passing gas made, at least partially, of a reactive gas, through the powder, to improve dispersion stability of powder pigments.Since the powder is turned into the fluidized layer by gas made, at least partially, of reactive gas, powder particles are put in close and uniform contact with the reactive gas, ensuring full surface treatment of the powder.
Abstract: An aqueous coating composition comprising from 45 to 98 parts by weight (solids) of aqueous resin(s) and from 2 to 55 parts by weight (solids) of finely divided water-insoluble resin(s), in which at least a part of said aqueous resin is selected from special type of cationic resins. The resins may have mutually reactive functional groups.
Abstract: An aqueous coating composition for formation of a coating film having high corrosion-resistance on a metal substrate which comprises (a) a film-forming polymeric material having at least one hydroxyl group and/or at least one carboxyl group, (b) a zwitter-ion compound and (c) an aminoplast resin and/or an epoxy resin with or without (d) a surface active agent having a hydrophilic functional group and at least one hydroxyl group and/or at least one carboxyl group.
Abstract: A process and apparatus are provided for making polymer plates that inlcude a uniformly thick layer of a resin composition adhering to a base or support plate. The disclosed process includes the steps of applying a resin composition to a base plate. coating the surface of the resin composition with a sheet of thermoplastic material, rolling the covered resin composition and base plate with rollers, cooling the resultant plate, peeling off the sheet material and then drying the resultant polymer plate.
