  • ACOUSTICAL BONDING OF EFFECT PIGMENTS
    Publication number: 20240010845
    Abstract: A method for producing a powder coating that can include receiving effect pigment particles and powder coating particles, mixing the effect pigment particles with the powder coating particles where the mixing includes imparts acoustic energy to the effect pigment particles and the powder coating particles, heating the effect pigment particles and the powder coating particles where the heating bonds the effect pigment particles to the powder coating particles, and cooling the bonded effect pigment particles and the powder coating particles.

  • Coating Compositions, Dielectric Coatings Formed Therefrom, and Methods of Preparing Dielectric Coatings
    Publication number: 20220073781
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a powder coating composition for preparing a dielectric coating. The powder coating composition includes: (a) an epoxy functional polymer; (b) a poly-carboxylic acid functional polyester polymer reactive with the epoxy functional polymer and which has an acid value of less than 100 mg KOH/g; and (c) a poly-carboxylic acid functional (meth)acrylate polymer reactive with the epoxy functional polymer. Further, if a colorant is present, the powder coating composition comprises 35 weight % or less of the colorant, based on the total solids weight of the coating composition.

  • Coated Substrates and Methods of Preparing the Same
    Publication number: 20210332251
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a substrate having (a) a first material applied to at least a portion of the substrate, and (b) a coating layer deposited from a liquid coating composition including a film-forming resin, and optionally a crosslinker that is reactive with the film-forming resin, in direct contact with at least a portion of the substrate to which the first material has been applied. The first material is (i) a catalyst that catalyzes cure of the liquid coating composition, (ii) a component reactive with the film-forming resin and/or the crosslinker of the liquid coating composition, and/or (iii) a rheology modifier.
