PLASTISOL DIPPING
In Plastisol dipping a heated part is dipped into a tank of
liquid plastic. The heat of the part causes the plastic to
"Jell" on the surface. The part is removed from the tank and
cured in an oven to provide the final material characteristics. The
thickness of the coating is controlled by the heat of the metal, the
length of time the part is immersed in the tank and physical
characteristic of specific plastisols.
If the part to be coated is cleaned and a primer is applied prior to
coating, A very strong bond will form between the metal and the coating
resulting in a very durable coating with a strong adhesive bond. This is
called Plastisol Dip Coating
If a metal part is not primed prior to coating, and the geometry of the
part is not complex, the coating on the finished part can be removed. This
makes it possible to cast plastisol shapes and remove them from the metal
"mold". Plastisol Dip Molding
