A method for forming a polyethylene and alumina nanocomposite coating on a substrate is described. The method may use microparticles of UHMWPE with nanoparticles of alumina to form a powder mixture, which is then applied to a heated steel substrate to form the nanocomposite coating. The nanocomposite coating may have a Vickers hardness of 10.5-12.5 HV.

A method for recycling powdered paint waste is provided in which, the powdered paint waste is being treated with the aid of a reactant in such a way that its adhesion to surfaces and especially to metal surfaces is reduced or eliminated. The treatment of the powdered paint waste allows the powdered paint waste to be additionally processed under the influence of heat and to use it as a starting material in various recycling processes or in other processes.
