RAPID XCEL
1630
Rapid XCEL 1630 is a polyethylene based
free-flowing powder. The key characteristics of this powder are low
melting temperature, and excellent high-gloss coatings.
Low
melting temperatures helps to increase line speeds and lower
energy costs. These powders are generally preferred where both
aesthetic as well as functional properties are desired. In addition
to this, the resulting coating provides excellent edge
coverage and corrosion
protection.
|
POLYMERS
All
powders are manufactured from prime virgin grades of polymers
manufactured by the major polymer producers. All the grades
mentioned have been manufactured from polymers that meet the
requirements to Indian Standard IS:10146-1982 on "Polyethylene
for its safe use in contact with foodstuffs, pharmaceuticals,
and drinking
water"

TYPICAL
APPLICATIONS
These powders are
generally used for coating wire fabricated articles like
scooter/ cycle baskets, car/ scooter back light grills,
refrigerator shelves, kitchen rack/ baskets, hangers, display
racks, formed wire goods, wire baskets, shower caddies, dish
drainer basket, planter
baskets..
|
HOT MELT COMPOUNDED
COLOURS
All the colors are hot melt
compounded in high performance extruders. This ensures a
uniform dispersion of pigments and additives in the resin.
This
enhances the UV stability of the polymer. It also prevents
color variation form product to product, pigment migration and
pigment wipe off.
