The property of good repellency creates water resistance and release properties. MRS further imparts solvent resistance and hardness, among others.
The main reason why silicone coatings excel in release properties is their "excellent repellency (low surface tension)." This property exhibits "water repellency" against water and "release properties" against sticky substances. Because silicone has low surface tension, it does not easily adhere to other materials, resulting in superior release and water-repellent properties. MRS coatings are an innovative coating that leverages these silicone properties while incorporating characteristics such as solvent resistance, high hardness, and high heat resistance, which were difficult to achieve with conventional silicone coatings.
basic information
■Reason: Low surface tension (property of repelling well) ■Against water: Exhibits water-repellent properties ■Against adhesive materials: Exhibits release properties ■Mechanism: Low surface tension makes it difficult to blend with other substances ■MRS Coating: Utilizes the properties of silicone while providing solvent resistance, high hardness, and high heat resistance *Characteristics vary by product number.
