Fluorolink® products were specifically developed for surface treatment in which the PFPE structure delivers these beneficial properties:

  • Reduction of surface energy
  • Water and oil repellency
  • Stain and soil resistance

These characteristics such as stain resistance and water repellency are important qualities in the production of textiles and leather goods. Fluorolink is a water-based dispersion system, PFOA-free that will not degrade to PFOA.  Fluorolink products are based on the perfluoropolyether structure rather than perfluoroalkyl and they have a much higher molecular weight. Another characteristic of the Fluorolink chemical structure is the ability of the functional groups present in the chain to facilitate interaction with the substrate.

Fluorolink is the ideal treatment for apparel, wallcoverings and home furnishings textiles where enhanced stain repellency and easy care are desired. Stains from coffee, red wine, chili and soy sauce can be avoided by simply blotting the surface with an absorbent cloth or paper towel.
