Developed by Plascoat, the world leader in thermoplastic powder technology, Plascoat PPA 571 is amongst the most versatile and durable coatings available on the market today. Plascoat PPA 571 will outlast most, if not all, traditional coating powders in providing long-term protection for metal against demanding environments without damaging the environment. It has a proven track record of unbeatable performance in a wide range of applications.

Developed by Plascoat, the world leader in thermoplastic powder technology, Plascoat Talisman is a high performance coating powder that is comparable to nylon powder. In many aspects Talisman outperforms nylon and is a popular choice with industries looking to reduce their material costs but at the same time improve the quality of their coated products.

Plascoat Talisman 10 has been designed exclusively for the coating of wire dishwasher baskets. Its many benefits and features include:

Coating process

• Lower application temperature and therefore lower energy usage than nylon
• Better adhesion than nylon

Operational

• Higher resistance to staining and yellowing than nylon
• Will significantly outlast nylon in terms of dishwasher wash cycles
• Excellent resistance to dishwasher chemicals and salt spray
• Complete EU and FDA (Food and Drug Administration) food contact approval
• RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) compliant

How is Plascoat Talisman 10 applied?

Plascoat Talisman 10 is applied by the fluidised bed method. Free on site advice and technical support is available.

Developed by Plascoat, the world leader in thermoplastic powder technology, Plascoat WireGuard F40 is amongst the most cost effective alternative for companies wanting to move away from PVC coatings. WireGuard F40 has been specifically developed for wire products and is ideal for the fluidised bed coating of wirework products which will be exposed to sunlight, humidity and airborne pollutants for prolonged periods of time. Examples of products coated with WireGuard F40 include fixed mesh fence panels, continuous fence mesh, external air conditioning fan guard grills and electrical garden equipment.

Switching from PVC to WireGuard F40 can reduce your total material costs due the fact WireGuard F40 is a lower density powder and does not require a primer. Other benefits include:

• Cost savings in processing temperatures
• Will not crack, chip, flake or fracture
• Easy to apply, pinhole free coating
• Excellent salt spray and UV resistance
• Superior low temperature properties
• No primer requirement means lower costs and fewer production steps required
• No need for extra ventilation, WireGuard F40 emits no hazardous fumes during application

Oil and gas product range

Plascoat Oil and Gas pipeline coatings have been developed so they can be applied:

• as a single coat directly onto steel
• as a combined adhesive and top coat in a 3 layer system

Which products should I use?

For flame spray equipment Plascoat recommends the Spartacus Coating System from Tecno Supply SRL

We have datasheets available for download for PE09, PE10, PP10, PP20 and L.E.S Epoxy Primer

Plascoat® L.E.S™
(Low Energy System)

The Plascoat® L.E.S™ system is a complete field joint coating system for polypropylene 3 layer coated pipes. The system includes a liquid epoxy primer followed by a functional polypropylene top coat. The easy to use epoxy will provide excellent anti-corrosion performance and the polypropylene layer will have excellent adhesion to the epoxy layer and will also fuse to the polypropylene on the pipe body. Plascoat® L.E.S™ has the following features:

• less energy usage as pre-heat temperatures are much lower compared with conventional FBE systems
• less time to apply as the field joint can be coated in minutes using this system
• less cost as the system requires no expensive investment in heavy equipment
• more confidence in a system that will provide a close match to an extruded 3 layer system and give outstanding long-term performance

Speciality PPA’s

Plascoat has developed a range of powder coatings for specific industrial uses. For some of these industries Plascoat products have become the industry standard and are widely specified around the world. Plascoat is able to develop bespoke coatings to meet the needs of your industry. Please call the above number for more details.

Plascoat PPA 665 and PPA 665XL have been specifically developed to coat the inside of liquid-filled fire extinguishers. Plascoat PPA 665 has been used for many years and is widely specified by the fire safety industry. Plascoat PPA 665XL was developed more recently to make the application process even easier and quicker and to allow a new application method of spray lining to be used. PPA 665XL can also still be applied by the standard spin coating method. Plascoat PPA 665XL delivers the same performance as PPA 665 with additional application benefits included.

Plascoat PPA 665XL key features and benefits

• Best service life
• Wide coating window
• Easy to achieve good coating integrity
• Resistance to AFFF’s
• Ability to coat up to 360 cylinders per hour
• Long-term adhesion and protection of the metal
• Conformity to requirements of EN3
• Coating powders that can be applied by Spin coating (roto-lining) or Spray lining methods.
