Hydrophilicity and Antistatic Performance
The coat has hydrophilic character which means to be resolved into water easily, which enables to equip self-cleaning function by rain and shower. In addition, it does not leave water drops on the surface and stains because of its lens effect. Oil stains are also removable with water. Furthermore, its antistatic effect keeps dust away.
What is Hydrophilicity?
– Hydrophilicity and Water repellency –
The angle of contact between the base and water changes by the condition of its surface.
Durability and Weatherability
Containing no chemical compound which deteriorates by the ultraviolet radiation, the coating sustains unless deterioration of the basis happens. Under the weather-proof test, it is maintained for more than twenty years without any deterioration and color fading from ultraviolet rays. The coating is preserved after the powerful brushing by the railway car washer. Furthermore, it works well in the hostile environment such as areas with chloride attacks and a factory neighborhood.
Siloxane Bond
Porous SiO2 covers the whole surface of inorganic base.
Safety
The coating is a fully inorganic material being consist of silica and water, which means it is free from surfactant, solvent and alcohol. It does not apply to the PRTR law, and it causes neither soil nor water contamination. In addition, the coating does not corrode cradles and metal frames. Not volatile, odorless and harmless. Since it is nonflammable, you can work safely without worries of ignition and explosion.
- No environmental risk
- No metal erosion
- No volatility
- No risk of explosion and ignition
