Abstract
High performance fluoropolymer resin systems for coatings applications have been commercially available for years. These technologies provide the owner a coating system that will far outperform other coatings in terms of exterior performance, most notably in chalk and fade retention. This paper will discuss the chemistry of the two primary types of fluoropolymer resins utilized in the protective and architectural coatings markets and explore the mechanisms by which they provide improved exterior durability. Additionally, the benefits of fluoropolymer coatings will be explored in specific applications.
