| LUMIFLON fluoropolymer resins were developed in 1982 as the first solvent-soluble fluoropolymers in the world. LUMIFLON polymers consist of alternating fluoroethylene and alkyl vinyl ether segments (FEVE). The fluorinated segments provide outstanding UV stability, weather resistance, and chemical resistance, while the vinyl ether segments provide solvent compatibility and cross-linking sites. LUMIFLON resins are used to make ultra-weatherable coatings for architectural, aerospace, automotive, and industrial maintenance markets. LUMIFLON LF-200 is a moderate molecular weight, moderate OH number resin. It is typically used in applications where outstanding weathering is required, but only moderate chemical resistance. Markets include architectural coatings, light duty industrial coatings, and coatings for concrete. Product Characteristics: - Moderate OH functionality
- Excellent weatherability and water resistance, good chemical resistance
- Excellent adhesion to primers, fiberglass, plastics, and composites
- Wide range of gloss possible
- Curable at both ambient and elevated temperatures
- Suitable for shop and field applied coatings
