THE METHOD OF FORMING ADHERENT, CORROSION RESISTANT COATINGS TO SOLID PARTICLES WHICH COMPRISES THE SEQUENTIAL STEPS OF: (1) FORMING A FLUIDIZED BED OF A FINELY DIVIDED MATERIAL CONSISTING ESSENTIALLY OF A THERMOPLALSTIC GRAFT COPOLYMER OF (A) 75 TO 98 PERCENT BY WEIGHT OF POLYPROPYLENE AND (B) 25 TO 2 PERCENT BY WEIGHT OF ACRYLIC ACID; (2) PREHEATING SAID SOLIC ARTICLE TO A TEMPERATURE BETWEEN ABOUT 250*C. TO 400*C.; (3) PLACING SAID SOLID ARTICLE IN SAID FLUIDIZED BED FOR A PERIOD OF UP TO ABOUT 7 SECONDS; (4) REMOVING SAID SOLID ARTICLE FROM SAID FLUIDIZED BED; AND (5) POST-HEATING SAID SOLID ARTICLE AT A TEMPERATURE BETWEEN ABOUT 150*C. AND 180*C. FOR A PERIOD OF BETWEEN ABOUT 5 AND 10 MINUTES TO PROVIDE UNIFORMLY SMOOTH, ADHERENT COATINGS OF SAID THERMOPLASTIC GRAFT COPOLYMER ON SAID SOLID ARTICLE.
