This manufacturer was facing a problem in the manufacturing process of pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory adhesive patches (wet compresses), where products were sticking to the transport equipment, leading to line stoppages and product defects. The product consists of a three-layer structure, with an effective ingredient-containing paste layered on a supporting substrate and a release film. This paste was coming into contact with the transport guide, causing adhesion, which resulted in line stoppages and product bending defects. In response, we proposed the "MRS Coating," which excels in non-adhesiveness. This coating is effective even against adhesives like those found in duct tape. As a result of evaluations conducted with actual products and samples, it was confirmed that there was no sticking, and it was adopted for use in the actual machines. As a result, the sticking issues were eliminated, leading to a reduction in defective products, an improvement in the good product rate, and a decrease in maintenance time associated with line stoppages. Are you facing similar issues? The "MRS Coating" may contribute to improving the efficiency of your manufacturing line. Please feel free to contact us for more information.

■Chemical Resistance of Fluororesin Fluororesin has high chemical resistance and does not dissolve, swell, or react with most acids, alkalis, and organic solvents. ■Reasons for High Chemical Resistance A major reason for the excellent chemical resistance of fluororesin is its stable molecular structure. Fluororesin is a high molecular polymer with a linear molecular structure formed by the bonding of carbon atoms and fluorine atoms. The bond energy between carbon and fluorine atoms (C-F) is very strong among chemical bonds, and furthermore, the C-C bond sections between carbon atoms are tightly covered by fluorine atoms in a helical manner. Therefore, it remains inert when in contact with chemicals or solvents, and does not degrade or dissolve as a resin, which means it has excellent chemical resistance. ■Applications of Fluororesin's Chemical Resistance - Various gaskets - Packing materials - Piping and hoses - Storage tanks - Reaction vessels - Heat exchangers *For more details, please download the materials or refer to the link below.*

■Corrosion and Insulation of Stainless Steel Stainless steel is known for its resistance to rust, but it can experience galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals. By coating it with a highly insulating resin to eliminate electrical contact, galvanic corrosion can be prevented. ■Highly Insulating Resins In general, plastics (resins) do not conduct electricity. Among them, resins such as fluororesin and polyimide are particularly excellent in electrical insulation and heat resistance, making them suitable for various applications. ■Cautions for Insulating Surface Treatments By insulating the surface of stainless steel with coatings like fluororesin, it is possible to maintain a state where electricity does not flow through the stainless steel surface. However, such coatings may require high-temperature curing and must be free of pinholes. Therefore, considerations regarding the design of the base material (component) and film thickness are necessary, and it is appropriate to consult a specialized contractor. *For information on the electrical properties of fluororesins, please click "PDF Download" or feel free to contact us. If you are considering an insulating coating for stainless steel, please do not hesitate to contact Yoshida SKT.

For preventing the sticking of sticky adhesive substances, which does not work well with Teflon coatings or fluororesin coatings, the following general measures have been taken, but there are limitations. ≫ Silicone release agents These are spray-type agents that can be easily applied by on-site workers and are familiar as release agents for resin molding. → However, they lack durability in their effectiveness, requiring frequent reapplication, and when wiped off with solvents for cleaning, the release agent is also removed. ≫ Surface roughening (physically reducing contact area) By making the surface of the components uneven, it becomes less likely for things to stick. There are many examples where combining this with Teflon coatings enhances effectiveness. → However, there are concerns about the risk of defective products due to the uneven shape being transferred to the product, and the difficulty of wiping or cleaning during maintenance due to the roughness. Our company has further evolved a smooth silicone coating that is effective against sticky adhesive substances and allows for solvent cleaning, tailored to the "troubles" faced on-site. We are currently offering a "feel the effect kit" for free! The "experience kit" can be requested from the official Yoshida SKT website.

The GLC series is a "low-friction coating for rubber" that imparts low friction (slipperiness) to rubber materials with grip. By applying this coating, the friction coefficient of the rubber is significantly reduced. This is because it forms a slippery film on the surface of the rubber, which reduces the friction between the rubber and other objects. The reduction in friction coefficient improves slipperiness, allowing rubber products to move smoothly and function as expected. *For more details, please download the materials and check them.

■Low Friction and Sliding Properties of Fluoropolymer (PTFE) Fluoropolymers have a low coefficient of friction and are used for solid lubrication. PTFE is structured such that fluorine atoms surround carbon atoms without gaps. The free energy of the fluorine atoms on the molecular surface is low, and the molecules have the characteristic of extremely low polarity in their target structure. The low coefficient of friction of PTFE is believed to be influenced by this type of molecular structure. ■Reasons for the Low Coefficient of Friction of Fluoropolymer PTFE - The strong atomic bonds within PTFE molecules reduce the intermolecular forces with the contacting material. - Friction (sliding) causes PTFE molecules to adhere slightly to the counterpart material, resulting in sliding between PTFE molecules. - The surface of PTFE molecules has a smooth structure with minimal irregularities. - The orientation of PTFE molecules makes it easier to alleviate frictional resistance. For these reasons, fluoropolymer PTFE is considered to have excellent lubricating properties. For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

◆Differences Between Frying Pans and Industrial Teflon Coatings◆ Teflon processing for frying pans typically involves products made with PTFE at a thickness of about 20 to 50 micrometers. PTFE is a representative fluororesin and is the first resin developed. Formally, "Teflon" is a registered trademark of the fluororesin by DuPont in the United States, while the general term is fluororesin processing (coating). PTFE not only excels in non-stick and water-repellent properties but also has good heat resistance, making it suitable for frying pans. On the other hand, industrial Teflon coatings not only have the non-stick properties like frying pans but are also used for various applications such as improving slip, protecting substrates from chemicals, and enhancing insulation properties. Therefore, the types of resins used include not only PTFE but also PFA and FEP. Our company can process PTFE coatings, but we also offer Teflon coatings using various materials and technologies. *Note: "Teflon" is currently a trademark of Chemours. Our company has a licensing agreement with Chemours and is capable of processing Teflon coatings in our own factory.

■ What is the degreasing process? It is the process of removing oils, fats, and dirt that are attached to the surface to be coated. ■ Issues arising from insufficient degreasing It can lead to problems such as the coating material repelling, poor adhesion of the paint film, and the occurrence of appearance defects like stains. ■ Types of degreasing methods - Air roasting - Solvent cleaning ■ Air roasting process The substrate is heated in a roasting furnace to a temperature above the coating processing temperature, allowing oils and other substances to be oxidized and burned off. Typically, roasting is performed for several hours at temperatures exceeding 400°C. ■ Advantages of air roasting - No toxic gases are generated during the decomposition of oils, which are broken down into water and carbon dioxide. - It can completely decompose all organic components that could cause problems during the coating firing process. - It can accommodate large products as long as they fit into the roasting furnace. Fluoropolymer coatings, which excel in non-stick properties, adhere firmly to the substrate and perform effectively when a proper degreasing process (surface preparation) is carried out. * For an overview of the fluoropolymer coating process, please download the PDF or feel free to consult us.
