(Seoul=NSP NEWS) = KCC has developed a post-coating powder coating that halves the painting process, targeting the secondary battery(EV·ESS) and electric/power components markets. The key feature is that it can achieve a coating thickness of 250㎛ or more, previously requiring two coats or a preheating process, with a single electrostatic coating.

The new product utilizes technology that controls electrostatic repulsion, achieving a film thickness of up to 250㎛ with a single coat. This achieves the insulation, flame retardancy, and high corrosion resistance required for secondary batteries and power control devices. Leveling technology, which maintains paint film smoothness, also enhances quality stability.

Accordingly, powder coating companies can lower production costs by shortening processes and saving energy during preheating and curing. The reduced process time also reduces exposure to external contaminants, and the reduced energy consumption is expected to reduce carbon emissions.

A KCC official said, “In the electric vehicle market, the demand for insulation and heat resistance in batteries and power components is increasing, and manufacturing process efficiency is becoming a key factor in competitiveness,” and “This new product is an example that demonstrates KCC’s technological capabilities to respond to these market changes.”
