Poor Chemical Resistance
Problem: The film
of your powder-coated part has poor resistance to chemicals. How can you stop
this from happening again?
Origin/Cause: This lack of resistance could be a result of either unsatisfactory cleaning, poor pretreatment, or a mixture of both.
Solution: Assess the conditions and the chemicals of the cleaning, rinse, and pretreatment stages.
Second Origin: It is also possible that a change has been made in the substrate but not to the process.
Solution: Contact substrate suppliers to find out if any changes to the substrate have been made.
Third Origin: Under-cured films will usually exhibit low adhesion.
Solution: Modify the cure conditions by increasing both the temperature and dwell.
