INFRALIT PE 8640-00
Low temperature curing polyester powder
- Low-temperature curing
- Powder coating
INFRALIT PE 8640-00 is a TGIC-free powder coating based on solid high quality polyester resin. At elevated temperature the powder will melt, cure and form the final paint film.
INFRALIT PE 8640-00 is suitable for steel and aluminium constructions in objects where good weather resistance is required. INFRALIT PE 8640-00 forms a mechanically and chemically resistant paint film which has good corrosion resistance and good colour stability and gloss retention also in outdoor conditions. APPROVALS: NFPA 130:2020 Standard for Fixed Guideway Transit and Passenger Rail Systems, Chapter 8 - Vehicles - ASTM E 162:2016 Standard Test Method for Surface Flammability of Materials Using a Radiant Heat Energy Source - ASTM E 662:2017 Standard Test Method for Specific Optical Density of Smoke Generated by Solid Materials
Surface preparation
Storage
| Practical spreading rate | 6 - 10 m²/kg depending on the film thickness. |
|---|---|
| Spraying | TRIBO/CORONA |
| Curing time | 10 min/160°C (metal temperature) |
| Colours | By agreement. |
| Packages | 15 kg or 20 kg according to the density of the powder. |
| Safety markings | See safety data sheet. The powder itself is non-flammable, but with air it can form an explosive mixture that in presence of adequate ignition energy ignites. The lower explosion limit of typical powder coatings is between 20 g/m³ and 80 g/m³ (CEPE, Safe Powder Coating Guideline 8th Edition, 2020). Ventilation of the spray booth should be adjusted so that the concentration of powder in the air is less than 50% of the lower explosive limit value. On calculation of the powder concentration in the spray booth, the powder deposited on the workpiece is not taken into account. In order to avoid the discharge of powder from the booth into adjacent working spaces, the speed of air flow in the apertures of the booth must not fall below 0.5 m/s. Spray painters should wear dust masks and protective gloves. Any spatter of powder on the skin should be washed off with water and soap. |
