Industrial Xylan Coatings

Xylan coatings are the most versatile and dependable industrial fluoropolymer coatings on the market. Unlike traditional fluoropolymer coatings, Xylan coatings are composite materials. They combine lubricants with the lowest coefficients of friction with high temperature resistant organic polymers to form plastic alloys with unique properties. Xylan coatings are widely used to reduce friction, improve wear resistance, protect against corrosion and provide a non-stick surface.

Xylan coatings are used extensively in a wide variety of industries, including automotive, aeronautics, commercial bakeware, food processing, electrical, garden tools, machinery, mold release, pharmaceutical, medical, offshore, petroleum, construction, chemical processing, reprographics, water, waste water, personal care items, industrial equipment, and housewares.
