Nano-ceramic coating technology / TPU PPF
Nano-ceramic coating: a surface-protection technology route
Nano-ceramic coating protects the surface of aliphatic TPU.
The coating is a semi-finished material. Finished-film performance and warranty follow the model specifications, test results and contract terms.
Exploded view / conceptual layer architecture
Nano-ceramic coating architecture
The illustrations show the nano-ceramic coating, its interface with aliphatic TPU and the functions of the coated surface.
Nano-ceramic coating network
Nano-ceramic materials form the protective surface in this conceptual structure.
Surface hardness, abrasion resistance and chemical-barrier design.
Microsmooth surface layer
The coating uses a smooth surface design to reduce microscopic irregularities.
Optical appearance and gloss retention.
Coating–TPU interface
The coating and the TPU substrate form a self-crosslinked interface without the use of solvents or accelerators.
Self-crosslinking reaction.
Aliphatic TPU substrate
A flexible substrate contributes to the film’s mechanical and optical behavior; its properties must be assessed within the full construction.
Impact, yellowing and surface-recovery performance are model-specific.
Surface coating
The coating is applied evenly over the exposed aliphatic TPU surface.
Uniform surface coverage.
Coated surface maintenance
Prompt removal of surface contaminants helps maintain the appearance of the coating.
Routine care for the coated surface.Four performance areas
Assess the coating route on the finished film
Coating parameters describe the performance of the coating itself. For finished-film performance, see the specifications and test results for the corresponding model.
Surface abrasion resistance
The nano-ceramic coating helps resist light surface abrasion during routine use and cleaning.
Surface smoothness and gloss
A smoother coating surface can help control diffuse reflection. Assess gloss and its retention on the selected film and finish; Gloss values do not apply automatically to Matte or Satin.
UV-barrier design
The coating helps protect the surface by blocking at least 99% of UV radiation.
Resistance to environmental contaminants
A protective top coat can help limit surface staining. Resistance to bird droppings, acid rain, resin and insect residue must be tested for the product and exposure conditions. Prompt cleaning remains necessary. A hydrophobic version is available.
