Fluorinated resins have been used in architectural coatings and specialty paints for more than 30 years. Solvay Solexis fluoropolymer resins provide the ultimate in weathering and chemical resistance.
Hylar 5000® is a PVDF resin used by paint and coatings manufacturers as a base resin for long-life finishing systems applied to metal substrates. When based on Hylar 5000, these coatings exhibit exceptional color fidelity over a long life of service; they resist degradation by ultraviolet radiation and attack by airborne pollutants, salt, wind-driven sand, and chemicals.
Hylar 5000 PVDF based coatings are coil or spray applied most commonly to aluminum, aluminized steel, and galvanized steel. Hylar 5000 PVDF based coatings are available from licensed coatings manufacturers worldwide.
