A new range of PTFE water-based coatings systems can provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to solvent-based solid film lubricants (SFLs).
A new range of PTFE water-based coatings systems can provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to solvent-based solid film lubricants (SFLs).
The "green" products, which are manufactured by Morgan Advanced Ceramics Everlube Products Division, have very low levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and are ideal for high volume, commercial grade coating applications.
Markets include the automotive, chemical processing, medical, semiconductor, metal fabrication and industrial sectors.
The new Everlube materials do not require dilution and therefore achieve a higher percentage of solids in the applied coatings.
Benefits include cost-effective and user-friendly application as well as faster coverage and improved productivity.
This next generation of water-based SFLs also offers improved appearance and wetting properties.
Unlike existing formulas they are suitable for dip spin applications and offer better salt spray protection, improved gloss and better solvent resistance compared with similar low VOC PTFE coatings.
There are three products in the range.
Everlube 9500 and 9600 low VOC lubricants provide excellent abrasion resistance and good corrosion and chemical resistance.
They perform best in lighter load-carrying applications such as locking mechanisms, pump and valve components, surgical devices and fasteners.
Everlube 9800 is a thermally cured, low VOC barrier coating with an organic binder system.
It is designed to provide excellent corrosion resistance in a wide variety of environments and may also be used as a primer.
Everlube 9800 also offers exceptional chemical and abrasion resistance while meeting all of the current and proposed low VOC regulations.
Typical examples include valve bodies and pump assemblies in the petrochemical and chemical processing markets.
