PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) coating, known as Kynar coating, is a non-reactive, pure thermoplastic fluoropolymer with several advantages. Because of its low weight and low thermal conductivity, Kynar coating is commonly used on chemical processing equipment. Most chemicals and solvents don’t affect this coating and have exceptional wear and abrasion resistance.
So, Can we paint on the ACP sheet?
PVDF coated ACP sheets are more resistant to solvents and acids than comparable fluoropolymers and have a lower density. Thus, making it the best choice for exterior cladding applications. High-quality PVDF paint is recommended to achieve a long-lasting and durable finish for ACP sheets to withstand harsh weather conditions. Whether you want to add vibrant colors or unique designs, painting on ACP sheets allows you to unleash your creativity and easily customise your space’s look.
Kynar PVDF coatings for steel, aluminium, and other metals have high dielectric strength and excellent weathering resistance in harsh environments. PVDF coatings are a factory-applied, resin-based coating system that supports matte-finish colours and usually has embedded paint pigment particles. They are among the most widely used commercial and industrial coatings available. The most common applications for PVDF coatings are aluminium wall cladding, curtain walls, and roofing sheets.
Recent market trend
The ACP market is segmented by the type of coating materials used. Polyester, polyethene, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), and other materials. PVDF aluminium composite panels are expected to take a significant share of the market in the coming years. These are of exceptional quality, mechanical ability, and durability. They are light, with high rigidity, super peel power, low and high-temperature resistance, and excellent flatness and smoothness on the surface. Polyester exhibits a flawless character when combined with alkyd resins and ultraviolent absorbents, extending the panel’s applications and providing good resistance to weathering, pollution, and chemicals. Durability, fire resistance, sound and heat insulation are only a few of the features they provide. Over the forecast period, these utility characteristics would significantly drive product demand.
Advantages of using PVDF Aluminium Composite Panel
There are some key benefits of using PVDF ACP Sheets:
- PVDF are more environmentally friendly than other dip coatings that contain VOCs
- (Volatile Organic Compounds)
- Sunlight resistant
- Corrosion and chalking resistant
- Wear and abrasion-resistant
- Resist fading and maintain high colour retention
- Long lasting and maintain high-gloss retention
- Highly resistant to chemicals and pollution
- Low maintenance and cost-effective
- Surface flatness and smoothness are excellent
- Can easily be bent and folded
- It is easy to install
PVDF aluminium composite panels can be used in a variety of applications. External curtain walls of the building, renovating old houses, decorating storefronts, Shopping malls, industrial facilities, airports, hotels, bus stations, hospitals, schools, advertisement screens, display systems, and signboards.
Aludecor uses PVDF resin of Kynar 500/ Heyner 5000 in a 70:30 PVDF and Acrylic Resin ratio. PVDF ACP Panels comprises two layers of aluminium skin sandwiching a PE core in a continuous extrusion process. PVDF Kynar 500/ Heyner 5000 fluorocarbon coating is applied to the panel’s outer surface with the help of the Steel Applicator Roll that works towards perfect coating and provides a long-lasting, robust finish and impressive gloss retention. Aludecor also uses Lead-free paints to cover ACP sheets. This safeguards you and your family against carcinogenic lead paint dangers, such as increased risks of nervous system damage and renal failure.
