saklaw
1.1 This test method determines the length of time required for a thermosetting coating powder to gel on a polished metal surface at a specified temperature (e.g. 204°C (400°F)). Gel time determination is a very simple method to characterize and quality control coating powders. Gayunpaman, the gel time determined by this method is not directly related to the curing time of coating powder in practical applications.
