Coatings with
Sol Gel
What is SolGel
A few μm of SolGel provide scratch protection, heat resistance, UV resistance, easy-to-clean, lotus effect, anti-fingerprint, anti-graffiti and much more.
We develop, produce and modify silane-based SolGel paints, which are characterized above all by high surface protection and yield compared to conventional paints.
ADVANTAGES OF SOL GEL coatings
- Corrosion resistance
- Scratch protection
- Heat resistance
- UV resistance
- Chemical and solvent resistance
- Easy-to-clean, lotus effect, anti-fingerprint and anti-graffiti properties
- No layer infiltration
- Non-flammable and therefore no smoke development
EXAMPLE APPLICATIONS
UNSERE STÄRKEN IM BEREICH SCHADENSANALYSEN
Unsere Kernkompetenzen basieren auf erfahrenen Spezialisten mit langjähriger Erfahrung in der Schadensanalytik deren Expertisen für die Ergebnisinterpretation genutzt und somit für eine zukünftige Schadensprävention wertvoll sind.
Die Qualitätssicherung und –optimierung in der Valdierung aber auch aus der Serie sind wichtige Aufgaben in der Schadensanalytik
Dazu gehören eine Vielzahl von verschiedenen Methoden resp. Kompetenzen, die je nach Anwendungsfall und ergebnisabhängig im Ablauf der Untersuchung definiert bzw. für den Kundenauftrag angewendet werden:
- Makro- und Mikrofraktographie
- Gefügeanalysen
- Analyse von Korrosionsschäden aus dem Feld oder nach Korrosionstest im eigenen Labor
- Begutachtungen vor Ort
- Beratung zur Schadensprävention
Architecture
SolGel is used on facades and public areas that are exposed to weathering and vandalism, as well as on fittings and cladding in kitchens and elevators, for example. The coating protects frequently used surfaces from external influences and makes them easier to clean.
- Anti-fingerprint and anti-graffiti properties
- Corrosion protection
- Abrasion resistance
- Lotus effect
- Easy-to-Clean
Automotive industry
SolGel coatings can be used to enhance interior fittings and protect wheel rims and decorative trim parts such as roof rails, trim strips or exterior mirrors. Thanks to its properties, SolGel is also suitable as a robust protective coating in the engine compartment.
- Heat resistance
- Abrasion resistance
- Scratch protection
- Cool-touch feel
- Anti-fingerprint
Solar industry
Weather resistance, long-term reliability and maximum efficiency are of the utmost importance for solar power plants. SolGel improves functionality, facilitates maintenance and protects the solar reflectors from intensive weather exposure.
- High transmission or reflection on high-gloss aluminum
- Corrosion protection
- UV resistance
- Scratch protection
- Heat resistance
Cosmetics industry
In der Kosmetikindustrie spiegeln Ästhetik und Eleganz der Verpackung die Qualität des Produktes wider. Von Parfumflacons über Lippenstifte bis hin zu Etuis, SolGel bietet viele Möglichkeiten, die hochwertige Metalloberfläche von Kosmetikverpackungen zu veredeln.
- Antifingerprint
- Cool-Touch-Haptik
- Abriebbeständigkeit
Processing Sol Gel
A sol gel coating can be applied to metallic surfaces such as aluminum and steel by dipping, spraying or coil coating. Thanks to its various application options and low viscosity, sol gel coating is also suitable for coating complex, geometric shapes. Compared to conventional coatings, a sol gel coating with a coating thickness of 2-5µm has a very high yield. On average, with a coating thickness of 2µm, 1kg of paint is sufficient to coat 100 m2 of surface. The properties of the Sol Gel coating can be adjusted according to customer requirements thanks to the possibility of coating modifications, such as pigmentation and additives.
