Fluororesin Coating: "What is the Water and Oil Repellency of Fluororesin?"

What are the typical characteristics of Teflon fluoropolymer coating, specifically "water repellency and oil repellency"? Let me introduce the mechanism.

■What is the "Water Repellency" of Fluororesin? "Water/Oil Repellency" refers to the property of a material's surface to repel water and oil. A well-known example that illustrates this property is the lotus leaf. The lotus leaf utilizes this water repellency to keep itself clean and less prone to wetting, allowing for smooth photosynthesis. Teflon fluororesin also possesses this "water/oil repellency." For instance, even if a liquid tends to spread on a material, applying a Teflon fluororesin coating to the surface can impart water/oil repellency, causing the liquid to bead up and reducing its tendency to spread.

basic information

Fluororesin coating is a functional coating that possesses excellent properties such as: - Non-stick - Water and oil repellency - Heat and cold resistance - Low friction - Chemical resistance - Electrical properties Yoshida SKT has been engaged in fluororesin coating since 1963. In 1968, we signed a licensing agreement with DuPont in the United States. Among industrial fluororesin coatings, only manufacturers certified by Chemours (formerly DuPont) are allowed to process coatings named "Teflon (TM) Coating." At Yoshida SKT, we provide coatings that maximize the properties of fluororesin according to our customers' needs. We flexibly accommodate from single items to mass production. Whether it's mass-produced items or a single part of a machine that exists only in a factory, we propose processing tailored to the application and usage environment. We can handle everything from fine precision parts to large tanks. We can process a variety of items, from precision parts active in cutting-edge fields to tanks with a depth of 6 meters, using our own equipment. *For more details, please visit our official website.
