High-Temperature Primers for Non-Stick Coatings

Torlon® PAI is available in water-soluble versions that possess exceptional mechanical, thermal, chemical resistance as well as wear-resistant properties.

Torlon resins are inherently non-flammable, have outstanding electrical properties, and possess enormous temperature stability from cryogenic to 300°C and some grades are FDA compliant.

Key Features

• Superior chemical resistance
• Better adhesion in salt water boiling tests
• Lower viscosity for easier processing
• Improved scratch resistance
• Withstands temperatures up to 288ºC

Hyflon® PFA/MFA® powders are designed for electrostatic spray coating. They are particularly recommended for use as a topcoat in non-stick applications, including release coatings for bakeware.

Their usage provide to the substrates the following exceptional properties:

• Outstanding release properties
• Excellent smooth surface finish
• Superior durability
• Wide thermal operating range

The inclusion of Polymist®/Algoflon® L PTFE micronized powders as additives in hollow-ware coatings, such as those applied onto bakeware and cookware, provides:

• Excellent non-stick and anti-friction properties
• Abrasion and corrosion resistance
• Outstanding thermal stability

Fomblin® PFPE fluorinated greases are ideally suited for use as an oven chain and bearing lubricant, especially for high temperature applications. They offer outstanding properties:

• Stable performance in extreme temperatures
• Reduced friction and wear while extending equipment life in severe duty applications
• Approved and registered by NSF International in the H1 category
• Non-toxic, no decomposition and no carbon residue
• Resistant to acidic or caustic cleaners, steam, moisture
• Increased ease of maintenance and reduced service time with less risk of downtime
