•General introduction

Art coatings, such as wrinkle, hammer, webbing, alligator crack and metallic coatings, can be produced by changing the types and additions of resins, curing agents, colorings, extenders and additional agents. Matt and texture coatings are also available.

Wrinkle coatings can make a coating surface with wrinkles, from tiny wrinkles on synthetic leather to wrinkles on flint paper. They are widely used on mould or hot-rolled steel articles which have hidden defects.

Hammer tone coatings can make tiny and intimate grains and are used on cast or spot welded articles. They are suitable for outdoor performance coating.

Alligator crack coatings can combine winkles, hammer tones, metallic effects in one coating, and are also applicable to coats of wrinkle and hammer coatings.

•Product series

Wrinkle, hammer, webbing, alligator crack, semi-gloss, texture, and metallic powder coatings are available.

Special grain powder coatings are available.

•Powder Physical characteristics

S. G.: 1-1.7 (varies according to different color, gloss and fineness)

Particle size distribution: varies according to different grain patterns.

Leveling: varies according to different grain patterns.

•Advantages and disadvantages

1.        can make coatings with various color and grains.

2.        coatings have both decorative and protective use.

3.        physical and mechanical performances are not so well as other coatings.
