Akzo Nobel showcases functional powder coatings

AkzoNobel has created a new dedicated microsite and resource centre for customers and specifiers of functional powder coatings to guide them through the selection process. 

Customers can discover how new technologies including single layer, dual layer and multi-layer powder coatings can be used. They can learn how different “Resicoat” products can address specific needs, such as on the inside and outside of pipelines to protect the integrity of drinking water, or to insulate electrical systems on the latest generation of electrical vehicles. 

They can also discover how combinations of coatings can be used to provide high levels of corrosion protection, reduce ongoing maintenance costs, and ensure the safe and efficient performance during the Engineered Design Life of each project.  

Functional powder coatings can be used to protect against extremes of hot and cold and an excess of pressure. They protect oil, gas and petrochemical pipelines from chemicals and corrosion, and provide a smooth and sealed surface to the valves and fittings that regulate the flow of water in our modern distribution networks. They insulate the rotors and stators to keep vehicles and electronics running safely, and deliver the ultimate insulation to the busbars an electric vehicle relies upon.
