XYLAN COATING
APPLICATIONS –
- Xylan is generally used to reduce friction, improve wear resistance, and for non-stick Additionally, it canbe used to protect a metal from corrosion. The most commonly known application is in non-stick cookware but Xylan coatings have also been used extensively in the automotive industry and for corrosion protection in the oil and gas industry.
- Xylan is the umbrella trademark for most of the Whitford Corporation fluoropolymer coatings Xylan is made of low friction, wear resistant composites of fluoropolymers and reinforcing binder resins. Xylan coatings can be one-,two- (primer and top-coat), and three- (primer, mid-coat, top-coat) coat conventional and reinforced (filled) coating systems.
- The fluoropolymers utilized in Xylan coatings consist of PTFE, PFA, and
- The properties of fluoropolymer-based coatings make them a preferred option in a variety of Among the most common ones are:
- Medical – their biocompatibility and low friction make them ideal for a variety of medical machines as well as forspecialised bags, fluid containers, and many more.
- Any other production industry or business – many business owners don’t know that their processes and the quality oftheir products can significantly improve with the help of industrial coatings. Call us, and we will help you find out how your company can improve too.
BENEFITS OF XYLAN COATINGS
- Control friction and lubrication – Preventing friction is especially important for the lifespan extension of manymachine parts. Even simple things like bolts and their fasteners last much longer if they are protected by a thin film of Xylan industrial coating.
- Corrosion protection – The environment influences all surfaces and materials and lowers their That is why one of the main benefits of the fluoropolymers family is their ability to protect from corrosion and to provide chemical resistance. Some formulas have enhanced properties in that field and give increased conservation to materials exposed to hard conditions such as acid rains, salt waters, and other chemicals naturally found in the environment.
- Wear resistance – With rubbing surfaces and parts, it is very important to have good wear resistance in order toextend their lifespan. That is where the fluoropolymer-based coatings can help. They are especially good for settings in which the usage of oil or other lubricants is not an option.
- Heat resistance – Even though most formulas can protect items in high-temperature settings, some Xylan coatings are specifically designed to have increased heat resistance.
- Non-stick properties – Thanks to the fluorine, these polymers are electrically That is why they don’t bondwell with other materials, which offers another benefit-they have excellent non-stick properties. In our daily lives, we witness the advantage of such properties when we use fluoropolymer-coated cookware.
