Color Coated Coil: Comprehensive Analysis Of The Basic Knowledge Of Color Coated Coil Deutschland

In the application of modern industrial materials, color coated coil has become one of the core materials in the fields of construction, home appliances and transportation with its excellent anti-corrosion performance, diversified appearance design and wide processing adaptability. As a product that perfectly combines functionality and decoration, color coated coil not only meets people's pursuit of beauty, but also provides efficient and environmentally friendly solutions for industrial manufacturing.

What Is Color Coated Coil?

Color coated coil is a specially treated metal sheet coil. Its production process is to coat the surface of the metal substrate with multiple layers of coating, and then cure it at high temperature to form a protective film and a decorative film. Its substrate usually includes galvanized steel coil, cold-rolled steel coil or aluminum coil. Color coated coil combines the mechanical strength of metal with the corrosion resistance and aesthetics of coating, and is a material that is both functional and decorative.

Basic Composition Of Color Coated Coil：

The performance of color coated coil is determined by its substrate and coating system.

Substrate:

The substrate of color coated coil is the core supporting part of its performance, which directly affects the durability and applicability of color coated coil. The main substrates include:

Hot-dip galvanized steel coil (GI)

         - The surface is coated with a zinc layer, providing excellent corrosion resistance.

         - Suitable for general construction and home appliance applications.

Alu-zinc steel coil (GL)

        - The aluminum-zinc coating is more corrosion-resistant than hot-dip galvanizing, especially suitable for harsh environments.

        - Commonly used in outdoor buildings and industrial facilities.

Cold-rolled steel coil (CR)

        - The surface is smooth and flat, but the corrosion resistance is weak.

        - Need to be used with high-performance coatings.

Aluminum coil

        - Lightweight, strong corrosion resistance, suitable for weight-sensitive or humid environments.

Coating System:

Coating is the key to the function of color-coated coils, which are usually divided into primer, topcoat and backcoat:

Primer: Provides coating adhesion and enhances the corrosion resistance of the substrate.

Topcoat: Provides color, beauty and protection functions, and determines the final appearance and performance of the color-coated coil.

Back paint: prevent back corrosion, some products are used for double-sided decoration.

Manufacturing Process Of Color-Coated Coils:

Pretreatment:

Before manufacturing color-coated coils, the substrate needs to be surface treated to ensure coating adhesion and coating effect. Surface treatment includes the following three steps:

- Degreasing and cleaning: remove grease and impurities.

- Pickling: remove oxides and expose the metal surface.

- Chemical treatment: improve coating adhesion through phosphating or passivation process.

Coating process:

The coating process of color-coated coils includes the following steps:

- Primer coating: - The primer is evenly applied to the surface of the substrate through precision roller coating equipment.

- Topcoat coating: - The topcoat determines the color and protective effect, and advanced equipment is used to ensure uniform coating.

- Back paint coating: - Apply a thin layer of paint to prevent back corrosion.

Curing and molding:

- The coated substrate needs to be cured at high temperature, usually around 200°C, so that the coating and the substrate are firmly bonded.

- The cured material can be directly processed by cutting, bending, etc.

Application Areas Of Color Coated Coils:

Construction industry: Roof panels, wall panels, ceilings

Home appliance industry: Refrigerator, washing machine and air conditioner shells

Transportation: Car body shells, ship decks and railway bodies, etc.

Packaging and other fields: Colored metal packaging boxes, billboards, furniture finishes, etc.
