■What are the issues with release agents? Release agents are known to be applied in industrial fields to improve the separation of molded products from molds. In addition to facilitating mold release, release agents also need to have properties that make them resistant to degradation from heat during molding and minimize contamination of the mold. Silicone is often used as a release agent because it has high heat resistance, does not easily degrade with repeated heating during molding, has low surface tension which provides good wettability to the mold, and can reach every corner of the shape. While silicone release agents have excellent effects, they can also impose a burden on the working environment, increase the effort required for mold cleaning, and lead to variations in the amount applied by workers, which may negatively impact the final product. ■Silicone Coating Technology Silicone coating technology balances release properties and maintenance, leading to solutions for release agent issues. ▼For more details about the coating, please click the URL below or contact us.

Wear refers to the phenomenon where one or both of two objects in contact and moving against each other become abraded. There are two main types of wear that can occur in manufacturing environments. One type is "rough wear," which occurs when surfaces are abraded and eroded due to contact with rough surfaces or particulate matter. The other type is "thrust wear," which happens when surfaces adhere due to frictional heat and are worn away by the opposing material. The appropriate surface treatment varies depending on the type of wear.

■Concerns to be resolved and goals to be achieved We received an inquiry about wanting to apply an anti-static coating to thin aluminum parts used in semiconductor equipment. The conventional fluorine-based anti-static coatings required high firing temperatures, which raised concerns about distortion in the aluminum parts. We were looking for a coating that could provide anti-static properties and was less prone to distortion even for thin aluminum parts. ■Coating adopted Saflon LF+ ■Effects achieved Among the Saflon series, Saflon LF+ has a low minimum firing temperature of below 100°C, which is expected to reduce distortion caused by firing, so we proposed it. We confirmed the provision of anti-static properties and resolution of distortion issues through tests and prototypes, leading to its adoption for product coating. The newly developed Saflon LF+ is an anti-static fluororesin coating that can accommodate various environments and applications of our customers.

◆What is Super Alloy Coating◆ Super Alloy Coating is a surface treatment that covers soft substrates such as plastics and rubber, as well as lightweight metals like aluminum and thin sheets, with an alloy that has a hardness of Hv 600 or higher, while also providing flexibility. It effectively prevents dirt on various manufacturing equipment and components, reduces maintenance tasks such as the peeling of adhesive materials, and exhibits excellent mechanical strength and durability. The surface of the coating has rounded protrusions, which minimizes scratching of contact objects. Additionally, despite being a metal coating, it has the ability to conform to slight bends and can accommodate curved surfaces. It allows for excellent release properties from adhesive materials and strength while maintaining the flexibility of the processed material. 【Features】 ■ Non-adhesive convex surface formation ■ Alloy coating with Hv hardness of 600 ■ Excellent mechanical strength and durability ■ Minimization of scratches on contact objects ■ Processable with various materials *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
