Thermoset powder coating is a dry coating made from thermosetting resins, curing agents, pigments, and additives that form a strong protective and decorative finish after heat curing. The curing process creates a permanent cross-linked structure that cannot be remelted. Thermoset powder coating offers excellent resistance to corrosion, chemicals, abrasion, and heat while providing long-lasting durability and adhesion. The main resin types of thermoset powder coating include epoxy, polyester, epoxy polyester hybrid, acrylic, polyurethane, and other resin types. Epoxy refers to thermoset resins widely used in powder coatings due to their excellent adhesion, chemical resistance, corrosion protection, and mechanical durability. These coatings are available as standard thermoset powder coatings, low temperature cure powder coatings, textured powder coatings, anti corrosive powder coatings, and specialty powder coatings. They are applied through coating method such as electrostatic spray coating, fluidized bed coating, electrostatic fluidized bed process, and flame spraying methods and are utilized across end use industries including automotive, appliances, architectural and construction, furniture, general industrial, electrical and electronics, agricultural equipment, and others.
