Prime/Paint

Marsam Metal Finishing Company’s prime and painting process include  functional organic & epoxy coatings designed to protect metal components from corrosion and harsh environmental conditions.  C.A.R.C. paint is also a subset of this group. The prime and painting systems we apply can also add lubricity or other engineering characteristics such as lubricity, high pressure wear, or protection from harsh environmental service conditions.  Marsam Metal Finishing Company applies numerous coating systems from a broad number of suppliers.

PTFE

PTFE is a fluorocarbon solid, as it is a high molecular weight compound consisting wholly of carbon and fluorine. PTFE is hydrophobic: neither water nor water-containing substances wet PTFE, as fluorocarbons demonstrate mitigated London dispersion forces due to the high electronegativity of fluorine. PTFE has one of the lowest coefficients of friction of any solid.

PTFE is used as a non-stick coating for pans and other cookware. It is nonreactive, partly because of the strength of carbon–fluorine bonds, and so it is often used in containers and pipework for reactive and corrosive chemicals. Where used as a lubricant, PTFE reduces friction, wear, and energy consumption of machinery. It is commonly used as a graft material in surgical interventions. It is also frequently employed as coating on catheters; this interferes with the ability of bacteria and other infectious agents to adhere to catheters and cause hospital-acquired infections.

Powder Coating

Powder Coating works by applying an electrostatic charge to the powder. Which is then applied to a grounded part via a spray gun. After the powder coating is applied the part is then cured using heat from a specialized oven. While the powder cures the pigments mixed with resins within the powder chemically react. This creates the hardened, durable coat to a part.

Powder coating creates a durable finish that is unmatched using liquid finishing techniques. As a result, powder coated finishes provide excellent protection against physical and chemical degradation. This increases the durability of the item coated for longer continued use.
