Thermoforming

Posted

Thermoforming Thermoforming is the process by which a piece with a certain shape is obtained. It starts with a sheet or plate of semi-finished thermoplastic which, by applying heat and using a vacuum with a mould or die, softens, and adapts to the shape of the mould. The heat applied must be the correct one […]

Cataphoresis

Posted

Cataphoresis Cataphoresis is a method of coating by immersion that consists of the contribution of a solid component with an electrical charge and in dispersion on the surface of the object to be coated with an opposite electrical charge. In this process, cathodic electrodeposition occurs, where the charged particles move within an electric field towards […]

Fluoropolymer

Posted

Fluoropolymer A fluoropolymer is a fluorocarbon-based polymer with multiple carbon and fluorine bonds. It is characterised by a high resistance to solvents, acids, and bases. Fluoropolymers share the non-stick and low-friction properties of fluorocarbons. Thanks to the multiple carbon and fluorine bonds, they are mechanically characterized as thermoset or thermoplastic. They can be homopolymers (macromolecules […]

PTFE PTFE or Polytetrafluoroethylene is a fluorine-based polymer discovered in 1938. Thanks to the replacement of hydrogen atoms by fluorine atoms, it is an inert material that is highly resistant to chemicals. It is the fluoropolymer with the lowest coefficient of friction and the highest resistance to temperature, with a great impermeability and maintaining its qualities […]
