What are the characteristics of unsaturated polyester coatings?

Abstract: 不饱和聚酯涂料包括风干型和辐射固化(光固化)两类。其优点是可以制造无溶剂涂料,一次涂装即可获得厚漆膜,涂装温度要求不高,漆膜装饰效果好,坚韧耐磨且易于维护。然而,缺点包括固化过程中漆膜收缩率大,附着力问题,风干型涂料通常需要复杂的抛光处理,而辐射固化型涂料对设备要求较高,不适合小规模生产。这种涂料主要用于家具、木地板和金属防腐等领域。


Unsaturated polyester coatings are also a coating that has developed rapidly in recent years, and can be divided into two categories: air-drying unsaturated polyesters and radiation-curing (light-curing) unsaturated polyesters. The main advantage is that it can be made into a solvent-free coating, a thick paint film can be obtained in one coating, the coating temperature is not high, the paint film has a good decorative effect, the paint film is tough and wear-resistant, and it is easy to maintain.

The disadvantage is that the shrinkage rate of the paint film is large during curing, and the adhesion to the substrate is prone to problems. Air-dried unsaturated polyester generally requires polishing, and the process is cumbersome. Radiation-curable unsaturated polyester has high requirements for coating equipment and is not suitable for small-scale production. Unsaturated polyester paint is mainly used for furniture, wood floors, metal anti-corrosion, etc.
