You may have heard of the term “super paints.” It is a term often associated with fluoropolymers. The reason is that fluoropolymers are highly versatile and durable. The qualities they possess make them particularly suitable for use in industrial settings where extra protection and durability are needed. Surfaces that receive a fluoropolymer coating in industrial and manufacturing settings are protected against the occurrence of wear and tear. The equipment comprising these surfaces, due to this coating, also how their service lives extended.
Non Stick Coating
A nonstick surface is the result of the application of a nonstick coating. The substances that can adhere to this type of surface are quite minimal, making this coating highly valuable for certain types of applications, including one of the most well-known – nonstick cookware.
The nonstick characteristics of fluoropolymer coating products are quite exceptional and are used in the manufacture of parts that require easy cleaning. These coatings are used extensively in the food equipment industry.
Resistance to Heat
Fluoropolymers also possess exceptional heat resistance. They are able to resist temperatures as high as 500°F (200°C). Due to this capability, they are often used to protect electrical wiring, providing essential insulation against fire. This insulation is important to help prevent short circuits that could lead to a dangerous conflagration.
Emergency responders and firefighters can benefit significantly from the application of fluoropolymer coating products applied to the protective clothing they wear. This coating provides important protection against flames and chemicals.
Resistance to Wear
Fluoropolymer nonstick coating is often applied to underwater cables that are easily subjected to wear and tear as a result of the elements are subjected to on a continuous basis. These cables are protected with fluoropolymers, prolonging their operating service lives while located and operating underwater.
Fluoropolymer coatings are used widely for the protection of equipment the results in reducing repair and maintenance requirements in industrial manufacturing settings. These coatings help ensure that the company’s operations and production capabilities operate smoothly and without unnecessary interruptions due to malfunctioning equipment and parts.
