Panacol has launched Vitralit® 2028, a new UV curable coating that is resistant to chemicals. It is a flexible coating material that can be cured in two ways, UV or heat.
Flexible Protective Coating Suitable for Autoclaving
Vitralit® 2028 is transparent and suitable for autoclaving. This material is ideal as a protective coating for wires in coil windings as well as other applications requiring protective coatings.
The epoxy Vitralit® 2028 is easy to dispense because of its low viscosity. The newly introduced material is ideally suited as a flexible protective coating enabling a clean edge to finish without bleeding. Vitralit® 2028 can be cured with light energy in the UV range from 320nm to 390nm.
UV curing devices from the UV equipment manufacturer Dr. Hoenle are particularly suitable for an optimal UV curing process. The special feature of the coating is its thermal initiator, which allows secondary curing of shadowed areas using an oven. The coating surface is dry after UV curing, so coated components can be processed immediately. The final strength of the UV coating is achieved when it cools down to ambient temperature.
