Xylan XLR® Coating Applications
Xylan-XLR® is the extra-long release version of the brand name fluoropolymer coating line created by the Whitford Worldwide Company/PPG in 2010. It is a two-coat, liquid system that has excellent non-stick properties. A heavier primer is available for better abrasion-resistance. We, at Coating Solutions, want to offer some product knowledge about Xylan XLR and hear about how you think we can work together to come up with a solution that works for you.
Anti-Corrosion Coatings
The Xylan line encompasses a range of fluoropolymer coating materials, all of which are designed to enhance the performance and/or extend the service life of a variety of industrial and consumer products. They can be made from various wear-resistant fluoropolymer composites, including polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), perfluoroalkoxy alkane (PFA), and fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) reinforced with binder resins and other agents. The result is high-performance coatings that can significantly improve the surface quality of components to boost functionality and/or longevity in demanding operational and environmental conditions.
Key Properties Of Xylan Coatings: Some of the key properties Xylan coatings provide to coated components include non-stick ability, a low-friction surface, chemical and corrosion resistance, extreme weather resistance, high heat resistance, UV resistance, and wear resistance.
Xylan-Coated Applications: Due to their many benefits, Xylan coatings are used for a variety of industrial and commercial parts and products. Typical applications include:
● Bakeware/cookware: ideal for coating pots, pans, and other cooking and baking instruments, due to a non-stick and heat-resistant surface.
● Food processing equipment: Food-grade Xylan coatings are applied to the surfaces of food processing equipment to decrease friction, stopping food materials from collecting on the surfaces.
● Machined components: Xylan is commonly used to coat machined components for applications requiring dry lubrication and non-stick; it is often utilized on applications with tight tolerances (e.g., aircraft and automobile).
● Medical instruments: Xylan can be used on medical instruments utilized for diagnostic and exploratory testing operations.
● Tooling: Xylan coated tooling is perfect for use in extreme environments (e.g., involving high temperatures or strong chemicals).
