Abstract
Pigmented powder coating products based on low melting point fluorine-based terpolymers, preferably on those made from a majority of vinylidene fluoride copolymerized with tetrafluoroethylene and hexafluoropropene, are capable of providing coatings with controllable gloss properties. The process for preparing coatings from the powders is essentially characterized by the selection of the temperature at which the desired gloss can be obtained, from low to high, without degradation of the mechanical properties.
