Paint is used in the production of hotel furniture. The average customer may not know the type of paint used by the hotel. Hotel furniture paint coatings are mainly divided into PU paint coating (polyurethane paint), PE paint coating (unsaturated resin paint), UV paint coating (ultraviolet curing paint), NC paint coating (nitro paint), W paint coating (water-based Paint) wait for five kinds. They use different shares in different periods and different types of enterprises.
1. PU paint coating: PU paint is the most commonly used paint variety in domestic enterprises. It has good comprehensive performance, such as: construction performance, filling, fullness, hardness, sandability, scratch resistance, etc. have good performance.
2. PE paint coating: PE primer is the most commonly used PE coating. It is divided into transparent primer and colored primer (mainly white primer). PE primer is a kind of paint with high solid content. It has high hardness, strong anti-sag and fullness, but its construction performance is more complicated and brittle. PE topcoats are only shiny products, and there is no matte surface, so PE topcoats are rarely used in the coating of wooden doors.
3. UV paint coating: UV paint is currently recognized as one of the two most environmentally friendly paints in the world (the other is water-based paint). As a new coating, it has developed rapidly in recent years, and the processes, equipment, and technologies supporting it have become more and more mature.
Among the solid wood furniture manufacturers, the first to use UV coatings were mainly Hong Kong-funded enterprises concentrated in the Pearl River Delta region. They initially used transparent UV bottoms and UV surfaces to make transparent or transparent colored flat wooden door products. With the joint development of UV coating technology and equipment technology, the construction technology of solid color UV products has also been maturely applied. The performance of its coatings is also very good, with good hardness and chemical resistance. High efficiency and low cost are also key factors for the widespread use of UV coatings. Its efficiency is dozens of times of the general coating efficiency, and the cost of the paint used is one third to two thirds of the general coating. If the labor cost is included, the cost savings will be more substantial.
4. NC paint coating: NC paint is a very old paint, and it is also a widely used variety. Its application in furniture mainly includes: transparent nitro paint, colored nitro paint (white, beige). Nitro paint has better application performance and shorter coating process time. Transparent nitro lacquer is commonly used in "open" and "semi-open" coating effects, and has good expressiveness. The solid color nitro paint is mostly used in the effect of fully enclosed coating.
5. W paint coatings: Waterborne coatings have relatively low solids content, thinner paint film, lower hardness, slightly poor water resistance, and high cost. However, with the continuous development of coating technology, these limitations Solved gradually.
Which kind of paint should be used for hotel furniture? It also needs to be rationally selected according to the different positioning of their products and the requirements on the surface effect of the products. The choice of solid wood hotel furniture paint and its process treatment directly affect the problems of texture, feel, moisture resistance, environmental protection, durability, yellowing resistance and so on. Polyester paint is generally used, which has good filling property, thick paint film, soft touch, high hardness and good solvent resistance. However, the preparation of polyester paint is inconvenient. Due to the influence of time, the adjusted paint must be used up within 4 hours, and the construction environment requires high requirements. On the basis of the same production process, the better the paint quality selected, the better the performance of the paint film. For example, under the same sunshine conditions, the bright white topcoat with good yellow resistance has better color retention than the ordinary white topcoat; under the same appearance of the paint film, the wear resistance and scratch resistance of the wear-resistant matte paint are Much better than ordinary matte paint.
