Performance of ultraviolet exposed epoxy powder coatings functionalized with silica by hot mixing

The effect of hydrophilic nanosilica additions on the (1–3% by wt.) mechanical performance of epoxy powder coatings after UV exposure was investigated in this study. The epoxy coatings were prepared by mixing a commercial epoxy powder with nanoparticles in a hot mixer, an alternative method that is...
