It is to provide a production process by which gelation can be prevented,
in a case where a solvent is removed from a curable fluororesin to obtain
a chief material resin, and then coating additives such as a curing agent
are mixed to produce a powder coating composition, or in a case where a
curable fluororesin, a curing agent and various additives are dissolved
or dispersed in a solvent to prepare a raw material solution, and the
solvent is removed from the raw material solution to directly produce a
powder coating material.To a solution or dispersion of a curable
fluorinated copolymer (A), a gelation inhibitor (B) is added, followed by
mixing, or a gelation inhibitor (B), a curing agent (C) and as the case
requires, various additives (D) are added, followed by mixing, and the
solution or dispersion is supplied to a thin-film vacuum evaporator to
remove the solvent.
