Vitraflon 700™ - Fluropolymer Based Finish


Excellent Weather Resistance

After being exposed to a 12,000 hour accelerated weathering test using the sunshine Carbon Arc Weatherometer, Vitraflon™ will retain more then 80% of its original gloss. Vitraflon™ not only protects substrate materials for years but also secures the long lasting beauty of their colour surfaces.

Colour Adaptability

Now architects can exploit fluoropolmer's unique weathering performance in the colour or colour combination of their choice.

Use Areas

Vitraflon 700™ is applicable on exterior cladding panels wherever long-term maintenance-free life is an essential consideration. Where the best quality polyurethane may be expected to contribute aesthetically to a structure for in excess of 10 years, the life expectancy of Vitraflon 700™ is at least 40-50 years. It is available in gloss, satin, metallic or pearl. The satin (45 ±5% gloss) is preferred for building exteriors to minimize glare.

Abrasion Resistance

Excellent resistance to scrubbing and sand abrasion

Chemical Resistance

Excellent resistance to organic and inorganic acid. Good resistance to alkalis. Excellent resistance to water-splash and immersion. Excellent resistance to solvents, petrol and oils.

Flexibility

Permanent flexibility has been built into the fluoropolymer. It will never embrittle.

Dirt Pick-Up

Vitraflon 700™ has very low surface energy consequently dirt does not readily adhere.
