In the spraying process to produce “three wastes” is inevitable, which is the main part of the “three wastes” spraying exhaust gas. Spraying exhaust from the thinner volatilization, organic solvents will not be attached to the surface of the paint with the paint, in the spraying and curing process will be released, the formation of…
DetailsSpraying voltage1.1 In a certain range, when the spraying voltage increases, the powder adhesion increases, but when the voltage exceeds 90KV, the powder adhesion decreases with the increase of voltage.1.2 When the voltage increases, the initial growth rate of the powder layer increases, but with the increase of the spraying time, the effect of voltage…
