Abstract
To a substrate such as brass is applied a powder coating comprising a) at least one non-crystalline epoxy resin, b) at least one crystalline epoxy resin such as tetramethylbisphenol diglycidyl ether in an amount sufficient to reduce or eliminate bubble entrapment within the cured coating when cured at a temperature of below about 350° F. (about 177° C.), and c) a curing agent such as dicyandiamide.
Claims3
A substrate coated with a powder coating composition comprising
- a film-forming blend of:
- a) at least one non crystalline epoxy resin;
- b) from about 5% to about 15% by weight of at least one crystalline epoxy resin in an amount sufficient amount to reduce or eliminate bubble entrapment within the cured coating film formed from the powder coating composition;
- and,
- c) at curing agent to facilitate curing of said composition to a thermoset state, wherein incorporation of said crystalline epoxy resin reduces or eliminates bubble entrapment within the cured coating film formed from the powder coating composition when said composition is cured to a thermoset state at temperatures of below about 350° F.

A substrate coated with a powder coating composition comprising
- a film-forming blend of:
- a) at least one non-crystalline epoxy resin having a Tg of greater than about 40° C.;
- b) from about 5% to about 15% by weight of at least one crystalline epoxy resin having a Tm of greater than about 90° C. in an amount sufficient to reduce or eliminate bubble entrapment within the cured coating film formed from the powder coating composition;
- and
- c) a curing agent to facilitate curing of said composition to a thermoset state;
- wherein incorporation of said crystalline epoxy resin reduces or eliminates bubble entrapment within the cured coating film formed from the powder coating composition when said composition is cured to a thermoset state at temperatures below 350° F.
