Fluorinated resins have been used in architectural coatings and specialty paints for more than 40 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.
