Showcased at ECS 2023 in Nurnberg, coated automobile rims based on EXOCOAT™ technology kept remarkably clean when the rim was smeared with dirt. Applied by simple spray application on a commercial aluminium-based rim suited for a Tesla Model Y, the coating is robust and resistant against chemicals and sustains a CASS (Copper Accelerated Salt Spray) test for more than a week.
This preceramic technology can be adapted for room temperature, forced cure and even for the coil coating application (30 sec, 250oC).
In the domain of industrial finishes, the EXOCOAT™ technology can replace persistent fluorine-based resins such as FEVE, PVDF and PTFE matching their excellent resistance properties. Moreover, with EXOCOAT™’s preceramic technology one may expect better adhesion properties and reduced peel off a typical shortcoming of fluorine resins.
