Hylar 5000 PVDF is used as a base material for long-life architectural coating systems for metal, glass, and other exterior surfaces. The advanced molecular structure of PVDF endows Hylar 5000 PVDF resin with its extraordinary properties. The combination of the carbon-fluorine bonds, the strongest knows in the chemical world. These bonds create a structure, unique to PVDF, that is particularly suited as a base for the most durable liquid coatings. When based on Hylar 5000 resin, 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 and have a broad useful temperature range.
Hylar 5000 PVDF based coatings are coil or spray applied most commonly to aluminum, aluminized steel, and galvanized steel. It covers a broad range of building types — from residential and institutional to commercial and industrial — and can be used on a wide variety of building elements, from metal roofing to mullions, copings to column covers. Hylar 5000 PVDF based coatings are available from licensed coatings manufacturers worldwide.
