We would like to introduce the "Super Water-Repellent Coating Agent" from Stof Japan LLC, which we handle. As a general rule, it exhibits performance without the need for a primer in a single layer. A thickness of about 1 micron is sufficient. Therefore, it features easy and quick application, the possibility of re-coating, and high light transmittance (although some haze may occur). There are two types: impregnating type and film type. The impregnating type is used for materials that absorb water, such as paper, wood, and concrete. The film type is used for materials that do not absorb water, such as glass, metal, and plastics. 【Features】 ■ Water contact angle ⇒ 165-170° (PTFE: 114°) ■ Water droplet fall angle ⇒ less than 1°. ■ Water-repellent function superior to fluororesin (fluorine-free) ■ UV resistance: Yes ■ Saltwater resistance: Yes *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
