Manufacturing Process
Mixing Phase
Preheat mixer to a controlled temperature of 25°C.
Combine Fluoropolymer, Silicone Elastomer, and Polyurethane Dispersion at medium speed for 10 minutes using a high-shear mixer.
Gradually add Silica Nanoparticles while maintaining a consistent mixing speed to ensure uniform dispersion.
Solvent Addition Phase
Slowly incorporate Isopropanol into the mixture while stirring at low speed to prevent volatility loss.
Continue stirring until a homogeneous solution is achieved, with no visible particulates.
Quality Control
Check the viscosity using a viscometer to ensure a value between 50-100 cP.
Perform a hydrophobicity test to verify water repellency properties meet industry standards.
Usage Instructions
Apply the coating evenly to the target textile using a spraying technique. Ensure coverage is uniform and allow drying naturally. The recommended application amount is 50g/m². Repeat application bi-annually for sustained performance.
