For surfaces that stand up to scratches
It’s an unforgettable feeling – sitting in a brand-new car with its shiny, flawless finish, or standing outside a building with a perfect facade. Everything is so smooth to the touch. Wouldn’t it be nice if it stayed that way? But just one careless move when getting into a car, and that perfect surface is suddenly marred by small scratches – maybe from a ring on someone's finger, a handbag, or a zipper. With our special coating additives and binders, effective anti-scratch properties can be injected into all kinds of interior and exterior surfaces.
Read on to explore more about our solutions for creating scratch resistant coatings: Durazane® our organic and inorganic Polysilazanes and particle-based additives.
Our solutions that say "keep away" to scratches
Durazane® - Organic and inorganic Polysilazanes
We provide an entirely new class of coating binders that enables you to add long-lasting protection to a multitude of surfaces and protect them from annoying scratches. An anti-scratch coating containing our polysilazanes forms a dense ceramic layer for extra durability, offering excellent anti-scratch properties as well impact and abrasion resistance.
Benefits at a glance:
- Seals surfaces much longer than standard coatings or waxes
- Smoothes surfaces significantly, making them easy to clean
- Reduces need for extensive washing
Areas of application:
- Automotive parts
- Public transport such as trains and trams
- Aerospace components
- Building facades
- Interiors such as kitchens and bathrooms
Suitable substrates:
- Various metals such as steel and aluminum
- Plastics
- Painted surfaces
Our solution for solvent-borne coatings
Durazane® 5500 our particle-based additive
In comparison to the anti-scratch function of our Polysilazanes based binder systems the Durazane® 5500 is used as an additive, which improves scratch resistance at concentrations as low as 1-2.5 % w/w. This makes it ideal for adding scratch-resistance properties to high-gloss, solvent-borne coatings. Our additive delivers these properties thanks to functional particles based on colloidal silica and is particularly useful for preventing micro-scratching for:
- Mobility:
- Automotive interior & exterior
Durazane® 5500 can be used in industries requiring a variety of resistant coatings for:
- Metal
- Glass
- Polymers
- Wood
