The curing treatment of PET coated iron wire is a key step in the production process, which determines the bonding strength between the coating and the iron wire, as well as the durability of the coating. The following is a detailed description of the curing treatment of PET coated iron wire:

1、 Curing method

The curing treatment of PET coated iron wire usually adopts heating curing method. Heating curing is achieved by feeding PET coated iron wire into a drying equipment and using the internal heat source of the equipment to heat the wire, causing the PET coating to undergo a chemical reaction at high temperatures, thus achieving the purpose of curing.

2、 Curing equipment

Common curing equipment includes ovens, drying channels, etc. These devices are usually equipped with heating elements (such as resistance wires, heaters, etc.) and temperature control systems inside to ensure the stability and controllability of the heating process. At the same time, good ventilation should be maintained inside the equipment to eliminate harmful gases and volatiles generated during the curing process.

3、 Curing parameters

Curing temperature: Curing temperature is a key factor affecting the curing effect of PET coating. Generally speaking, the higher the curing temperature, the faster the curing speed, but excessively high temperatures may cause coating cracking or burning. Therefore, it is necessary to choose the appropriate curing temperature based on the characteristics of PET material and coating thickness. Usually, the curing temperature is controlled within a certain range, such as 150 ℃ -250 ℃.

Curing time: Curing time is also an important factor affecting the curing effect. Short curing time may result in incomplete curing of the coating, affecting the bonding strength between the coating and the wire; If the curing time is too long, it may lead to excessive aging of the coating and reduce its performance. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the appropriate curing time based on the actual situation.

Heating rate: Heating rate refers to the degree of temperature increase per unit time. Appropriate heating rate helps the coating to solidify uniformly and avoid temperature stress. Generally speaking, the heating rate should be controlled within a certain range to avoid adverse effects on the curing effect caused by too fast or too slow heating rates.

4、 Curing process monitoring

During the curing process, real-time monitoring and recording of equipment parameters such as temperature, heating rate, and time are required. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly check the operation status of the curing equipment to ensure that it is in good working condition. In addition, it is necessary to conduct quality inspection on the cured coating, including testing of coating thickness, adhesion, corrosion resistance, etc., to ensure that the product quality meets relevant standards and customer requirements.

5、 Precautions

During the curing process, it should be ensured that the iron wire is uniformly heated in the drying equipment to avoid local overheating or insufficient temperature. After curing, the wire should be allowed to cool naturally to room temperature to avoid rapid cooling that may cause the coating to crack or peel off. During the curing process, attention should be paid to safe operation to avoid accidents such as burns or electric shocks.

In summary, the curing treatment of PET coated iron wire requires strict control of heating temperature, time, heating rate and other parameters, and the selection of appropriate curing equipment and monitoring methods to ensure the curing effect. At the same time, attention should also be paid to issues such as operational safety and product quality inspection.
