Results for tag: "Glass Flake Coating"

Glass flake coating is a type of protective coating used to protect surfaces from corrosion, abrasion, and chemical attack. It is composed of a resin base, usually epoxy, and glass flakes. The flakes are typically made from soda-lime glass, borosilicate glass, or quartz. The flakes are suspended in the resin and applied to the surface in a single or multiple coats. The glass flakes provide a barrier between the substrate and the environment, protecting it from corrosion and other damage. The flakes also provide a decorative finish, as they can be tinted or pigmented to create a variety of colors and textures. Glass flake coatings are used in a variety of industries, including automotive, marine, and construction. They are also used in the oil and gas industry to protect pipelines and other equipment from corrosion. Some companies in the glass flake coating market include AkzoNobel, PPG Industries, Axalta Coating Systems, Sherwin-Williams, and Hempel. Show Less Read more
