Improved
Wetting and Adhesion
for Plastics and UHMW |
|
Fluoro-Seal's
Adhesion Treatment is a durable surface modification
process for plastic products that permanently increases
adhesion
and wettability properties |
|
- Especially
well suited for three-dimensional products such as
bottles, containers, molded parts, extruded films
and roll goods materials.
- Performed
roll to roll on films and various roll goods and
fabrics
- Facilitates
treatment of a wide variety of plastic and rubber
materials for improved adhesive assembly, decoration
and painting.
- Enables
use of environmentally friendly (and regulatory compliant)
water borne systems.
- Greatly
improves surface acceptance of a wider variety of
adhesives, coatings, and inks
