Polyester resin is commercially available from SK-Ucb, Alkenz, DSM, Solutia, etc., and acrylic resin is commercially available from DIC, Reichhold, Anderson Development, Clariant, and the like.

The powder coating used in the present invention should be well coated with the silver film activation pretreatment agent, and at the same time, the roughness of the powder coating surface should be good so that the silver film can be smoothly formed.

The powder coating surface which satisfies these conditions is achieved by the leveling agent of the present invention.

This invention is a coating film leveling agent containing two or more components as a leveling agent.

The composition of the coating film smoothing agent used in the present invention includes a component having a large polarity and a component having a small polarity at the same time.

The present invention not only achieves the smoothness of the coating film required for silver film coating superior to the conventional powder coating by using the coating film smoothing agent of such a composition, but also can be easily etched on the surface of the coating film by an acidic silver film activator. It became possible.

Specific examples of the coating film leveling agent of the present invention include urea-aldehyde resins and n-butyl polyacrylates. The coating film smoothing agent achieves the etching effect by the silver film active liquid and excellent smoothness and roughness of the coating film surface.

Silver film coating method of the aluminum wheel using the powder coating of the present invention is as follows.

Contaminants (dust, antirust oil, processed oil, etc.) on the surface of the aluminum wheel material 1 are removed using a cleaning agent or the like.

The powder coating material of the present invention is coated on the washed aluminum wheel material to form a powder coating film 2 to ease the uneven surface of the aluminum wheel material to facilitate the formation of a silver film.

A silver nitrate (AgNO ₃ ) aqueous solution, a reducing agent and a surface active liquid are sprayed onto the powder coating film 2 to form a silver film, and the residue is washed with pure water to remove the residue.

The reducing agent used in the present invention is not particularly limited, but an aqueous solution of dextranose is preferably used.

The surface active liquid used in the present invention is used to facilitate the formation of the silver film, and is preferably an aqueous tin chloride (SnCl ₂ ) solution.

A silver nitrate aqueous solution and a silver nitrate reducing agent are simultaneously sprayed on the powder coating film surface formed by using a silver film.

At this time, the silver film formed by spraying pure water is prevented from discoloring.

In this process, in order to form a silver film on the surface of the aluminum wheel uniformly, the wheel is rotated in one direction or rotated in both directions, or the back and forth, left and right reciprocating motion around the wheel to be coated by the injector or Do the silver film coating process while performing the circular motion.

When the silver film formation is completed, remove the water and paint the transparent paint. Due to the coating of the transparent paint it is possible to ensure the weather resistance and light resistance, adhesion and corrosion resistance required for the coating material of the wheel.

Specific embodiments of the powder coating of the present invention are shown in Tables 1 to 4 described above.

Adjust the volume by lowering it to the same ratio.

Hereinafter will be described a process for producing a powder coating of the present invention.

The raw material of the powder coating is weighed according to the purpose, and then put into a pre-mixer, and finely pulverized raw materials of relatively large components such as resins and hardeners, and then other relatively powdery raw materials (e.g., Benzoin, leveling agent, pigment, and the like).

This uniformly mixed starch product is melt-dispersed using a melt kneader (Extruder or ko-kneader, etc.) while applying heat at 80 to 120 ° C, and the chips are passed through a compression roller while cooling the resulting dispersion again. To manufacture).

The chip thus prepared is pulverized into particles having a size of 5 to 105 μm by a mill (mill, grinder, etc.). If the average particle distribution is distributed between 20 ~ 75㎛, it can be applied by electrostatic powder coating machine or triboelectric powder coating machine.

After pre-treatment (alkaline degreasing, etc.) of the powder coating prepared in the above composition on the aluminum wheel to be suitable for powder coating, after coating the powder coating to 40 ~ 180㎛ thickness, 10 ~ at a temperature of 140 ~ 200 ℃ Dry for 50 minutes to cure. The surface active liquid is applied and washed with water so that the silver film is easily formed on the cured powder coating film.

Then, in accordance with the size and structure of the aluminum wheel to be coated with the silver film using an air or airless injector, the spray angle of each injector (or spray gun) is determined in consideration of the rotational speed of the wheel. The amount of silver nitrate solution and reducing agent is sprayed 50 ~ 200ml per wheel for 5 ~ 25 seconds irrespective of the quantity of injector so that the thickness of silver film is 0.1 ~ 0.3㎛. do. At this time, the distance between the wheel surface and the injector is maintained to be about 15 ~ 40cm.

At the same time as the formation of the silver film, the color of the silver film formed by spraying pure water is prevented from being changed, the remaining water is removed, and the transparent film is coated with a thickness of 5 to 30 μm to protect the formed silver film, and at the same time, the coating film performance required for the aluminum wheel.
