Surface Coating Polymers for the Anti Corrosive Coating Industry
Why use Thermoplastics?
- Commonly referred to as “plastics”
- Melt on heating and re-solidify on cooling.
- Common plastics are polyethylene, polystyrene, polypropylene, nylon, PVC etc.
- Range of properties-from flexible to rigid, high temperature or chemical resistance, toughness, electrical insulation etc.
- On heating, they react with themselves to “cross-link” the molecules into a matrix which solidifies and will not melt again on reheating.
- Barrier Properties
- Vapour
- Liquids
