Abstract

Abstract Process for enhancing the electrostatic chargeability of powder coatings or powders, and the use thereof for surface-coating solid objects. A process for enhancing the electrostatic chargeability of powder coatings or powders intended for surface-coating solid objects, by homogeneously incorporating at least one triarylmethane, azine, thazine and/or oxazine compound in an amount from about 0.01 to about 10 percent by weight into powder coatings or powders, the compounds mentioned being dissolved or dispersed in the powder coating system or powders.
