Abstract

The present invention relates to a skin-feel matte preparation process. A pre-curing lamp device is used to preliminarily cure the paint surface of a workpiece coated with an ultraviolet (UV) skin-feel matte paint, and a final curing lamp device is used to completely and ultimately cure the paint surface of the workpiece coated with the UV skin-feel matte paint. The final curing lamp device includes a skin-feel matte curing lamp with a wavelength of 253-257 nm. The skin-feel matte curing lamp irradiates the UV skin-feel matte paint on the workpiece, causing the UV skin-feel matte paint to contract and form a non-smooth paint surface, thereby achieving a matte effect on the workpiece paint surface. This process uses the skin-feel matte curing lamp with a wavelength of 253-257 nm to irradiate the UV skin-feel matte paint on the workpiece surface, effectively causing the UV skin-feel matte paint to contract on the workpiece surface and form a non-smooth state, imparting a soft, baby-skin-like tactile quality, while also achieving an extremely matte effect of 0.5-5.0 degrees on the workpiece paint surface, with pronounced skin-feel and matte effects.

  • Chinese Patent No. CN202120720678.2 discloses a device for generating a skin-feel using skin-feel UV coating. The device comprises a machine frame provided with a conveying assembly configured to convey plates, and a plurality of sets of UV excimer lamp components arranged above the conveying assembly. When plates are conveyed by the conveying assembly, under the irradiation of ultraviolet (UV) excimer lamps in the UV excimer lamp components, the skin-feel UV coating absorbs nano-ultraviolet light emitted by the UV excimer lamps to form a skin-feel effect. Since the plurality of sets of UV excimer lamp components are all arranged above the conveying assembly, the UV excimer lamps cannot irradiate the lower surface of the plates, resulting in low working efficiency.
  • The reflection effect is poor, and the skin-feel effect is poor.
  • Moreover, the claims state that the wavelength of the UV excimer lamps is 172-185 nm, and nitrogen gas is required to achieve the skin-feel effect, resulting in high production costs and a complex process structure.
