Aluminium Coil Coating

08 Sep.,2023

 

Aluminum coil coating is a kind of polyester coating coil. It has the characteristics of high weather resistance, which can effectively improve the anti-ultraviolet ability and prolong the service life of outdoor use.

Introduction of Aluminium Coil Coating

Aluminium Coil Coating is an industrial process used to produce pre-coated aluminum coils. Different types of coatings are available: anodized, painted, liquid or powder coating. This method is used to promote the use of aluminum in most environmental conditions. For this reason, the application of coil coating involves two major industries: architecture and interior design.

Aluminum coil coating is the process of applying a protective layer or coating to aluminum coils or sheets. The coating is typically applied using a continuous coil coating process, in which the aluminum is passed through a series of coating stations on a continuous production line. The coating material is applied to the aluminum using a variety of techniques, such as roll coating, spray coating, or electrostatic coating.

Coatings applied to aluminum coils and sheets serve a number of purposes, including:

  1. Protecting the aluminum from corrosion and other types of damage
  2. Improving the appearance of the aluminum by providing a uniform, smooth finish
  3. Enhancing the performance of the aluminum in certain applications, such as in the construction or automotive industries

There are several different types of coatings that can be applied to aluminum coils, including:

  1. PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) coatings: These coatings provide excellent weathering resistance and are commonly used in architectural and construction applications.

  2. Powder coatings: These coatings are made from dry, finely ground resin and are applied to the aluminum using heat. They are known for their excellent corrosion resistance and durability.

  3. Anodized coatings: These coatings are formed by an electrolytic process that creates a thin, oxide layer on the surface of the aluminum. Anodized coatings are known for their excellent corrosion resistance and durability.

  4. Organic coatings: These coatings are made from a variety of organic materials, such as paints, enamels, or lacquers, and are applied to the aluminum using a variety of techniques, such as roll coating or spray coating. Organic coatings are commonly used for decorative or aesthetic purposes.

In summary, aluminum coil coating is the process of applying a protective layer or coating to aluminum coils or sheets to protect the aluminum and improve its performance in certain applications. There are several different types of coatings that can be applied to aluminum, including PVDF, powder, anodized, and organic coatings.

Advantages of Aluminium Coil Coating: 

1. Light texture, easier to form

2. Corrosion resistance Because its surface has a dense oxide film, it has strong adhesion, anti-oxidation, acid resistance, alkali resistance, corrosion resistance, corrosion resistance, and UV resistance.

3. Good temperature resistance, the melting point of aluminum is 660 degrees, and the general temperature does not reach its melting point

4. The board has extremely high strength and can be cut, slit, balanced, drilled, joined, fixed and compressed at the edges.
