During storage, transportation and application, coated fiberglass mesh may require a balance between surface properties, water resistance and blocking resistance.
The coating formulation can be designed according to the required combination of:
The formulation may contain a polymer binder together with selected additives and, where applicable, a crosslinking system.
The final result can be influenced by both formulation design and production conditions.
Important process parameters may include:
Laboratory evaluation can be combined with production trials and storage simulations to assess the behavior of the finished coated mesh.
RUI CO develops water-based polymer systems for coating applications where a balance of adhesion, flexibility, water resistance and surface properties is required.
