- Benefits
Coatings produced from IsoCoat 401 provide :
- Excellent thermal stability (polymer will typically withstand temperature excursions up to 240°C).
- High level of chemical resistance.
- Good abrasion resistance.
- FDA compliance.
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
- Applications
IsoCoat 401 is typically used in the following applications :
- Temperature resistant coatings.
- Binder for high temperature resistant fiber reinforced plastics.
- Bonding agent for high temperature applications up to 240°C.
- FDA compliant coatings.
- The excellent chemical resistance of these polymers leads to applications in container coatings, “non-stick” cookware, electronics, and other areas.
- Coatings can be produced from IsoCoat 401 that meet requirements of FDA regulations 177.2450 and can therefore be used in the manufacture of cookware coatings.
Further Dilution
- Use de-mineralized or distilled water as required.
- Processing
- IsoCoat 401 is supplied as a solution, care must be taken to enable the solvent to be removed slowly to avoid blistering of the film.
- During curing, the temperature of the object should be increased slowly up to the final cure temperature to avoid blistering of the coating due to final release of solvent.
- Final cure temperature of >220°C is required.
- It is advised not to mix used material with unused product for storage, although topping-off the process tank with fresh material is acceptable.

Regulatory & Compliance
- Certifications & Compliance
- Chemical Inventories
- Regulatory Information
- This product meets the definition of a polymer under REACH, and its components are preregistered as substances.
- The material, or components, is either on the TSCA inventory list or is exempt from the requirement to be listed.
Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 18 months
- Storage
- In the original sealed container these products have a shelf life of 18 months when stored below 35°C.
- Solution viscosity may change over time from the value reported on COA.
- The rate of change depends upon solvent, % solids and storage conditions.
- The change in viscosity does not affect polymer performance and the material can be used with no performance loss.
