| Summary: | The report is intended to provide a survey of electrostatic
powder coating principle, the parameters involved and how it
car. be used to give a protective and decorative thin surface
film on printed tinplate, which would in turn withstand a
tooling deformation.
Phenomena associated with electrostatic powder coating are
examined and the principle applications of the process to
film production are described.
In addition to an investigation of the conventional type process
currently used in industry, new developments are discussed.
The application is the hardware range components produced by (/up 10).
Metal Box S.A. Limited, wi.-ch would compete favourably with
plastic products, serving the same market because of a durable,
corrosion resistant, scratch free sru*face.
This survc. will form the grounding work for further investig-
ation into different areas and processes for decorating tinplate.
Assumptions and limitations of the work have been based on
available local and overseas data and estimates of accuracy of numerical result.-, have been reccrdod as - b t .
