A
hydrophobic paint is a thin
layer of nano particles which can be applied to surfaces and make them water
repellent. It causes an almost imperceptibly thin layer of air to form on top
of a surface. At Protexion, we have
developed a family of super hydrophobic
paint for both consumer and industrial indoors and outdoors — that
completely repels water and heavy oils.
The
super hydrophobic paints are also
found in nature; they appear on plant leaves, such as the Lotus leaf. This
paint can be sprayed onto objects to make them waterproof. The spray is
anti-corrosive and anti-icing; it has the ability to clean; it can be used to
secure circuits and grids. The paints also make removal of salt deposits
possible without using fresh water. Furthermore, superhydrophobic paints have the ability to harvest other minerals
from seawater brine with ease.
How
hydrophobic paint can be applied?
There
are so many different ways to apply hydrophobic paint to make it
water repellent. Spray-on and wipe-on methods are used mainly for the
automotive market. The chemical ingredients can also be added to a material or
product before, during or after production.
Protexion offers the right solution for every situation. From
ready-made products to concentrates or raw-materials: you can add our
hydrophobic paint whenever it best fits your requirements.
Super
hydrophobic paints rely for their repellence on a delicate micro or nano structure —
this structure is easily destroyed by abrasion or cleaning; thus, the paints
are often used on items like electronic components that are not susceptible to
wear. Objects subject to constant friction, such as hulls of vessels, will
require constant re-application of such a coating to maintain a high degree of
performance.
The
best thing of this hydrophobic paint is you don’t even see it; it is totally
transparent and does not affect appearance of the surface. The hydrophobic paint can be
sprayed on objects to make them waterproof. This paint used for concrete
substrates probable to reach highest compound growth rate in forecast period.
Industries where hydrophobic coating used
Outdoors
or indoors – a hydrophobic paint can
be used in both domains.
1. Construction: Keep
synthetic, metallic and other building materials clean and safe from corrosion
by applying a durable water repellent.
2. Food-industry: Keeping
high-touch surfaces like doors, furniture and work-utensils clean is vital for
the wellbeing of workers, patients and/or guests. Hydrophobic paint makes it easier to clean and disinfect, but can
also keep germs and bacteria at bay.
3. Automotive industry: When it
comes to hydrophobic paint, vehicles of all kinds offer many possibilities for
application. A durable water repellent does not only keep cars, boats and
planes safe from water and dirt, it also preserves the pristine look of a fresh
paintjob and protects the surface from scratches, UV-rays and corrosion. Ceramic
coating has been one of the most common applications of nano safety for
automobile, boat, and aircraft.
4. Textiles: It is made to repel water and dirt.
Workwear, sportswear or everyday clothing – Protexion offers durable water repellent for creating smart
textiles that are made to last. The paints are suitable for glass and
plastic surfaces such as windows, to keep them last longer clean.
Protexion is a
specialist when comes to hydrophobic paint and industrial coatings and paints manufacturer &
supplier across all over India. For different applications we develop and
manufacture the huge range of industrial coatings and primers, powder coatings,
floor coats, paint finishes and coating materials. We provide protective and
