DuPont™ Teflon® Powder Primers - Saving You Time and Money

In order to provide a complete powder system, DuPont has a powder primer offering for PFA and FEP as well as ETFE.  The systems are easy to use, with improved efficiency and reduced processing time:
  • Powder primer allows for two coats to be applied with only one bake- saving time
  • Powder primer goes on thicker, achieving film thickness quicker- saving money
Compared to traditional liquid primer, powder primer allows for thicker application per coat.  For example, PFA liquid primer 420G-703 goes on at .4 mils per coat, whereas, PFA powder primer 532G-42551 can be applied at 2-3 mils per coat.  Not only does the complete powder primer offering save time and money but is environmentally sound.  The chart below gives some additional benefits of DuPont™ Teflon® powder primers.
