Powder Coatings – Foundation for the Novice Formulator

Kevin Biller

Powder Coatings have been the fastest growing finishing technology for the past 30 years. In spite of this tremendous growth and the technology advances that come with it, very few technical tools have been provided for the formulator. Most literature in either dated or focuses on the application characteristics of this outstanding technology. This treatise offers one of the most comprehensive accounts of the basics of powder coating formulation.

Powder Coatings – Foundation for the Novice Formulator presents a logical, methodical approach to building a successful powder coating. Not only are the basics of resin, pigment and additive choices covered, but also the philosophy of constructing a product that meets your customer's needs both practically and economically. A clear concise explanation of manufacturing and quality control is also covered.

Both the novice and seasoned powder coatings formulator will find this manuscript to be an indispensable asset.

New ASTM Manual published

ASTM International has published Manual 46, Metallographic and Materialographic Specimen Preparation, Light Microscopy, Image Analysis and Hardness Testing. With 27 chapters, the manual cover all aspects of the metallographic and materialographic specimen preparation process, light microscopy, image analysis, hardness testing, and directions for establishing and maintaining a modern metallographic/materialographic laboratory.

The manual includes a CD-ROM with document summaries of 87 ASTM standards, as well as E 2014, Standard Guide on Metallographic Laboratory Safety; E 140, Standard Conversion Tables for Metals; and SI Quick Reference Guide: International System of Units (SI).

The manual is divided into six parts with part one being a description of sectioning, mounting, grinding, polishing and etching of specimens. Part two is a hands-on manual, guiding the metallographer and materialographer to the correct preparation method. Part three is a description of, and manual for, the optical reflected-light microscope. Part four is an introduction to quantitative microstructural analysis and automatic image analysis. Part five is a description of the most used hardness methods based on ASTM standards. Part six gives directions on how to establish and maintain a modern metallographic/ materialographic laboratory.
