ELECTROCOAT CLINIC

摘要

Wehave seen /heard that e-coat is being used for the coating of steel reinforced mesh for use in concrete in the US for the prevention of concrete cancer. We are an Australian company based in Sydney supplying e-coat as a service to industry and xve would like to see E-coat included into the Australian standard for this application. Do you have any info on this topic or know of someone who would? A. My experience in coating mesh for concrete reinforcement was many years ago and used the same yellow-green epoxy powder used on re-bar. It is my understanding that the re-bar produced in the US goes from "scrap cars to coated re-bar" in a single process. The same yellow-green epoxy powder is used but is cured as it exits the steel manufacturing process using residual heat from the steel. This process would make e-coat fairly hard to compete with powder as a continuous process.
