Applications

A variety of functions can be obtained with simple coating systems e.g. scratchproof, anti-stick, hydrophobic, sealing, self-cleaning, anti-fogging and coloured coatings can be obtained with liquid-based deposition methods

Hydrophobic Coatings
	Fluor-based layers can minimize the water affinity of your product surfaces to such an extent that they will never be wet again. Moreover, these coatings also exhibit very interesting self-cleaning properties.

Methods

Besides the obvious dip coating method, there are a very large number of deposition methods for solutions and slurries. We have the most common ones at our direct disposal: spraying, spin coating, and screen printing.

Spray Pyrolysis Equipment
	Sol gel layers usually need a thermal treatment after deposition. With spray pyrolysis, it is possible to perform this treatment simultaneously with the coating process. This method also allows obtaining custom designed surface roughness and quality.
Screen Printing Equipment
	Screen printing allows the deposition of thick layers (up to 100 µm). This technology is regularly used in the electronics industry for conducting or functional layers. Our pilot-production scale equipment can print surfaces up to 300 x 300 mm.
