DSM Desotech’s UVention™ group custom-formulates UV/EB coatings to meet
specialized performance requirements. By synthesizing our own oligomers with
unique structures not commonly available to the marketplace, new combinations
of properties are possible. The use of nano-technology also increases options
for enhanced coating performance in targeted applications.
Below is a sampling of coating properties for highly specialized market
applications.
| Mechanical Properties |
Coatings with desired performance in: hardness, flexibility, toughness, crack
resistance, impact resistance, and low shrinkage.
|
| Surface Properties |
Coatings with scratch-, mar-, and abrasion-resistance. Functional coatings
with anti-fogging, anti-fouling, and easy or self-cleaning surfaces.
|
| Adhesion Properties |
Coatings optimized for adhesion to challenging substrates
|
| Optical Properties |
Appearances ranging from glossy to matt; many colors and special optical
decorative effects. Options for transparency and opacity, anti-reflective and
high reflective coatings.
|
| Corrosion Resistance |
Coatings providing corrosion resistance to salt spray, acidified salt spray,
filiform corrosion, and CASS corrosion for metal substrates.
|
| Flame Retardancy |
Coatings formulated to pass UL1581 and UL94 flammability tests.
|
| Chemical Resistance |
Coatings with oil, solvent, acid, and alkaline resistance
|
| Stability and Aging |
Coatings with heat resistance, hydrolytic and light stability, and excellent
weatherability.
|
| Electrical Properties |
Conductive/dielectric, anti-static coatings
