The storage conditions for powder coatings should meet the following requirements:
-
Temperature: Store in an environment with a temperature below 35°C, and some special coatings may require an environmental temperature below 30°C.
-
Humidity: Relative humidity should be controlled below 60% to avoid agglomeration of the powder caused by moisture.
-
Ventilation: The storage environment should have good ventilation to avoid dampness and odors.
-
Dryness: Direct sunlight and humid environments should be avoided to prevent moisture absorption and agglomeration of the powder.
-
Keep away from fire sources and heat sources: For safety, the storage area should be kept away from fire sources and heating equipment.
-
Cleanliness: The storage space should be kept clean to avoid the mixing of dust and impurities.
-
Prevent contamination: Powder coatings of different types should not be placed together to prevent mutual contamination.
-
Packaging: Powder coatings should be stored in a sealed condition, using clean, airtight, and moisture-proof packaging bags or drums.
Adhering to these storage conditions will help maintain the quality and performance of the powder coatings, reducing problems caused by environmental factors. References:
