FluorN 1740G is a fluorosurfactant additive that provides low surface tension in solvent-based products, enabling better wetting, spreading, leveling and other beneficial properties in coatings, paints, inks, cleaning products, conditioners, polishers, etc. At very low concentrations, FluorN 1740G can deliver great wetting power.

FluorAcryl 1939 is a bifunctional perfluoropolyether (PFPE) urethane acrylate. FluorAcryl is a surface modifier that improves gloss. It is compatible and miscible with low molecular weight reactive UV-curable diluents and acrylic monomers. Some of the properties of FluorAcryl 1939 include good release agent, good water and oil repellency and good chemical resistance. As a surface modifier this also offers good hardness, substrate-wetting and flow-properties. Recommended dosage is between 0.5–5% w/w. During application and UV light curing, FluorAcryl blooms quickly and effectively on the surface of the coating, imparting low surface energy and non-stick E2C properties. FluorAcryl is made for UV curable coatings use.

FluorAcryl 3298 is a hydrophobic and oleophobic acrylate that produces hard scratch resistance coatings. This oligomer is compatible with UV/EB curing. FluorAcryl has a high Tg, good water resistance, high impact strength and good solvent resistance.

FluorAcryl 7298 is a perfluoropolyether (PFPE) used as an additive in other UV curable coatings to reduce surface tension and improve water, oil and stain resistance. Films and coatings with 7298 may be expected to provide anti-fouling and easy cleaning from fingerprints and other contaminants. FluorAcryl 7298 is compatible with many monomers, such as TMPTA. With or without pigments and other particulates, 7298 rapidly UV cures in the presence or absence of oxygen.

FluoroCoat MH, S and U-series thixotropic inks are screen printable coatings used in manufacturing hydrophobic and super-hydrophobic diagnostic microscopy slides, microarray plates and microfluidic devices. The MH-series inks are PTFE-based, heat-curable, super-hydrophobic and solvent resistant. The S-series inks are smooth and hydrophobic. U-series inks are screen-printable UV-light curable inks that are water, oil and chemicals repellent. FluoroCoat series inks are translucent or pigmented. After proper curing, masks have contact angles to water between 115 - 150° and have great chemical and solvent resistance. These inks are available in a wide variety of colors including black, white, red, blue, yellow and a wide variety of others. Custom color-matching and optimization for other properties is also offered when needed.

FluorN 2900 is a 100% active, non-ionic, alkylphenolethoxylate-free (APEO), PFOA/PFOS-free, perfluoropolyether (PFPE) fluoro-surfactant that at low concentration reduces the surface tension of aqueous and polar solvent formulations sufficiently to permanently wet and provide smooth, pinhole-free films on PTFE and other low energy surfaces. FluorN 2900 provides for excellent substrate wetting, leveling, stripping, re-coating, anti-fogging, anti-blocking, cleanability, and open time extension. In aqueous and polar solutions, it is low or non-foaming.
