PE and PVDF Paints for Color Coated Aluminum

All together there are five paint types for color coated aluminum in the industry. PE and PVDF are two better known and more frequently applied ones. Here we give a brief introduction of the two.
PE is short for polyester, having a weaker hardness in film than acrylic acid but better flexibility and T-bend performance. It adheres onto the surface of colored aluminum sheet metal pieces after being baked repeatedly, forming a solid film of a strong protective and decorative property. It is an anti-UV ultraviolet coating. The polyester resin uses a polymer containing an ester bond in the main chain as a monomer, and an alkyd resin is added. The PE aluminum trim coil stock can be divided into two series based on gloss degrees: matt and high-gloss series.

PE endows rich colors to aluminum products, along with good gloss, comfortable smoothness, superior texture feeling and strong dimensional effects. It protects aluminum objects exposed to the open air from being damaged by ultraviolet radiation, wind, rain, frost, snow, temperature differences, freeze-thaw cycles as well as corrosive gases and microbes.
Better known as fluorocarbon, PVDF is the best paint for color coated aluminium products, boasting excellent corrosion resistance, long lasting weather resistance and strong adhesion. The pvdf color coated aluminum coil resin mainly refers to a composite paint containing vinylidene fluoride homopolymer, copolymer of vinylidene fluoride or fluorine-containing vinyl monomer. The chemical structure of the fluoric acid base is combined by a fluorine/carbon bond. This structure is so stable and firm that the physical properties of fluorocarbon coatings are superior to those of conventional coatings. After baking at high temperatures, PVDF film shows good impact resistance, long-lasting UV resistance and strong weather resistance, especially suitable for color coated aluminum sheets used in hot regions. Fluorocarbon coatings can be classified into conventional fluorocarbon and nano fluorocarbon coatings according to the surface film formation structure.

Slitting of 1mm 2mm 4mm aluminium strip

图片
What kind of machine is used to make aluminum sheets into 1mm 2mm 4mm aluminium strip belts? Many people might think about a shearing device, but they are actually dealt with by a continuous slitting unit of a similar working principle to that of a shearing device. The difference lies in the point that there is no pause of shearing with a continuous slitting unit. Generally, the mother roll, namely, an  aluminum coil  to be slit, is placed. During the slitting process, the coil roll is divided into several belts which are further rolled into narrow aluminium strip rolls. The slitting method of both  1mm 2mm 4mm aluminium strip  or other aluminum strips can be divided into two types: a straight pull type and a loose sleeve type. The straight pull type refers to the method that aluminum strip rolls are kept in tension from being fed into the unwinding sail to being coiled by the coiling machine, and this production method is suitable for trimming and intermediate ...

Diamond Embossed Aluminum Sheet Application

The  diamond embossed aluminum sheet  refers to aluminium sheets with diamond patterns on the surface. In addition to 1000 series, 5005 and 3003 are frequently applied alloys as well. 5005  diamond embossed aluminum sheet s can be used for conductivity materials, cookware, instrument panels, electronic shells and building ornaments. Their anodized film proves to be brighter than that of 3003, and the color matches perfectly with that of 6063 aluminum alloy products. Generally speaking,  diamond aluminum checker plate s are sold by the unit of pieces. In international business the unit of metric ton is frequently used as well. Their thickness ranges from 1.7mm to 8mm, but those between 2mm and 7.75mm prove to be the most popular. The width is from 1010 to 1500, among which 1250 and 1500 are most frequently adopted. Embossed aluminum sheet s with different patterns usually match varied application scope. Five-bar and one-bar sheets are mostly used for anti-skid pu...

Embossed Aluminium Coil Patterns And Applications

图片
If you have ever used an escalator you might have noticed that there are partition panels respectively at the bottom and top of the escalator. These partitions are usually paved with  embossed aluminium sheet  coil that have a good pressure bearing capacity and are made of composite metals. As a matter of fact, there are various patterns and applications of embossed aluminium coil, and here we will give a simple introduction. 　　Patterns 　　Aluminum sheets with patterns on the surface is called embossed aluminum sheets or  aluminium tread plate . Pattern shapes include lentils, diamonds, round beans, and oblate mixed shapes. The market is most common in lentils. 　　Application 　　The aluminium tread plate has beautiful appearance, excellent anti-slip property, enhanced performances, and material-saving advantage in production. It is widely used in transportation, construction, decoration, equipment, floor, machinery, shipbuilding and other fields. Generally speaking,...
