  • Common additional measures for earthing poorly conductive substrates are, for example, applying an electrically conductive layer such as conductive solutions or conductive varnish to the surface of the substrate or heating the substrate to reduce the surface resistance. It is also customary to deposit the substrate with an earthed, conductive layer of metal foil, conductive solution or conductive lacquer in order to enable charge transport to the ground via charges influenced on the back of the substrate.

  • the oppositely charged particles stick to the substrate surface because they attract each other through the substrate due to Coulomb forces.
  • Polarizable portions in the substrate are aligned in a preferred direction, which contributes to particle adhesion. This effect does not occur in the case of coating processes of the prior art, since the charges applied to the substrate should flow away as quickly as possible via the substrate earth so that the layer structure is not adversely affected.
  • Free-flowing bulk goods as well as ceramic powders such as enamel are suitable as coating media or cement, powder coatings such as epoxy, polyester or acrylate powder or other powder substances such as sugar or salt as well as liquid wetting substances such as wet coatings, slurries, dispersions, water, inorganic solvents, organic solvents or mixtures of at least two of these components.
