Electrostatic painting is a process that uses specialized equipment for electric charging and fluidization of powder pigment and sprays particles as a coating on the surface. "Dry painting" is classified and removes volatile organic compounds (VOCs), hazardous pollutants (HAPs) and solvents often found in other painting processes.
How does powder painting work?
From the beginning to the end of the electrostatic painting process, the operator uses specialized equipment to atomize the paint and control the connection and flow between it and the target field. Be known especially for the colors used. Specific electrical resistance shows the measure of the material's resistance to electric current. Color with low resistance easily allows the movement of electric charge. Conductivity indicates the mutual value of specific resistance and the ability to conduct electric current. In some projects, water-based paints may be too conductive and not suitable for electrostatic painting equipment.
In powder coatings, conductive agents are not as necessary; Because the electrostatic paint gun nozzle atomizes the particles. Therefore, conductive factors are less involved in reducing or eliminating pollutants.
A few superior advantages of electrostatic paintings
1. Reducing paint wastage
When you sit down with painting and restoration professionals talking about the electrostatic painting process, you'll often hear them refer to paint as a "coating." You will notice this when you watch the electrostatic painting process and the way the paint particles are covered when the spray moves around the corners and bends. Reduce the amount of paint left on the target surface. Transfer efficiency, or the percentage of paint used without wastage, is a high percentage of the amount loaded into the spray.
2. A smooth and even surface painted with an electrostatic method that looks brand new
The quality of finish achieved using electrostatic painting can give a device that has been used for years a new look.

3. Faster painting and less drying time means less downtime for your work.
Similar to air spraying methods, electrostatic painting speeds up the painting process. The applied paint dries faster than liquid spray methods and does not require heat ovens. You no longer need to wait weeks for smoke evacuation or spaces that are temporarily unused. Normal jobs can be resumed within a few days.
4. A durable finish for heavy-duty, high-traffic applications
Adhesion properties created in the electrostatic process result in high protection against corrosion, weather wear and heavy use. High durability is especially important when your assets are exposed to indoor and outdoor moisture.
