In the application field of amusement facilities, powder coatings are mainly used for coating slides, climbing frames, swings, slide platforms, surfaces of children's amusement facilities and other parts. By choosing the right powder coating and coating process, you can provide long-lasting, beautiful and safe protection for your amusement equipment. The advantages of powder coating application in amusement facilities mainly include the following aspects:
- Excellent weather resistance and environmental stress cracking resistance: Powder coatings, especially epoxy resin/polyester powder coatings, have excellent weather resistance and environmental stress cracking resistance. This means that in outdoor environments, powder coating-coated amusement equipment can maintain its bright colors and intact appearance for a long time, resisting erosion by natural factors such as ultraviolet rays, rain, weathering, etc.
- High adhesion and flexibility: Powder coating has high adhesion and flexibility, which can ensure that the coating is closely combined with the surface of the amusement equipment and is not easy to peel off. At the same time, its flexibility makes the coating less likely to crack or break during use of the amusement equipment, thereby extending the service life of the amusement equipment.
- Non-toxic and environmentally friendly: Powder coating is non-toxic and environmentally friendly, meeting modern people’s requirements for health and environmental protection. Applying powder coatings to amusement equipment can not only provide a safe and healthy playing environment for children, but also reduce environmental pollution. High-temperature treatment process: The powder coating is melted and colored in the box equipment at a high temperature of 180 degrees for 30 minutes. This high-temperature treatment process makes the product's paint surface smooth and colorful, with effects that traditional paint cannot achieve. At the same time, high-temperature treatment can further improve the adhesion and weather resistance of the coating.
- Antibacterial performance: Some high-performance powder coatings, such as Axalta’s Alesta™ AM antibacterial powder coating, not only have the above advantages, but also meet high antibacterial standards. This kind of coating can be used in public places such as hospitals, public transportation, and playgrounds to effectively resist bacterial invasion and protect the hygiene of the coated surface.
- Good color stability: Powder coating-coated amusement equipment can maintain its color without fading for 3 years and without obvious fading for 5 years under strong ultraviolet radiation. This excellent color stability allows the rides to always maintain a bright appearance and attract visitors' attention.
Powder coatings have significant advantages in the application of amusement facilities, including excellent weather resistance, high adhesion, non-toxic and environmentally friendly, high-temperature processing technology, antibacterial properties and good color stability. These advantages make powder coatings ideal for painting amusement rides.
