- admin
A fabric coating may look smooth after drying but develop cracks, whitening or peeling when the material is stretched or folded. In many cases, the problem comes from the balance between film hardness, adhesion and elasticity. The film is too hard A hard coating film can provide good surface strength, but it may not be flexible enough for stretch fabrics. When the fabric moves, the coating must mo...

When UV ink comes off during a tape test, the primer is often blamed first. However, poor adhesion can also result from the film surface, contamination, incomplete primer drying or incorrect UV curing. Here, “adhesion promoter” refers to a primer applied before printing. No single grade is suitable for every plastic film. Choose the Primer by Substrate PET and BOPET films often benefit from a prim...

How to Choose a Waterborne Polyurethane Dispersion for Industrial Glove Coatings
- 2026-08-11 18:51:37
- admin
As global environmental regulations such as EU REACH and OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 become increasingly stringent, traditional solvent-based PU systems face growing restrictions in protective glove manufacturing. With advantages such as low VOC emissions and no DMFa residue, waterborne polyurethane (WPU) emulsions are rapidly becoming a key choice for glove manufacturers transitioning from solvent...

How to Reduce Pinholes in PTFE Coatings with PFA 001 Dispersion
- 2026-09-03 15:43:32
- admin
Poor surface smoothness, low gloss, and microscopic pinholes may occur during the spraying and baking of waterborne PTFE non-stick coatings. These defects can allow steam, fats, and corrosive substances to penetrate the coating over time, increasing the risk of blistering, peeling, and reduced non-stick performance. Why Pinholes May Form Pure PTFE has extremely high melt viscosity and limited flow...

Why PTFE Coatings Release Food but Adhere to Metal: The Role of Primer Resins
- 2026-10-28 17:08:51
- admin
A fried egg slides easily off a non-stick pan, yet the coating underneath remains attached to the metal through repeated heating and cooking. This raises an interesting question: if PTFE is known for its exceptionally low adhesion, how can it form part of a durable coating on cookware? The explanation lies in the difference between the surface that contacts food and the interface that bonds with t...
