Hydrophobic Plastic Sheets
Some of the best hydrophobic coatings offer coefficients of friction in the range of approximately 0 15 to 0 3.
Hydrophobic plastic sheets. These sheets have excellent corrosion resistance and are chemically resistant to most acids alkalis solvents and hydrocarbon based fuels. Hydrophobic sheets are specially formulated to repel liquids. Our sheets can be gamma or ethylene oxide sterilized. Nei s line of nanomyte hydrophobic coatings provide durable protection from abrasion and liquids and can be applied to a variety of substrates including plastics metals glass painted surfaces fabrics and 3d printed parts.
Nanomyte superhydrophobic coatings improve efficiency and save energy. Neverwet makes superhydrophobic coatings for consumer industrial applications. The latter higher molecular ratio arises from the fact. It s anti wetting anti icing anti corrosion self cleaning and oleophobic.
When moistened with water or a saline solution the coated plastic surface adopts the hydrophilic properties of a true low friction surface. Many plastic and filled glass or fiber reinforced plastic surfaces of medical devices can have the low friction surface provided by a bonded hydrophilic coating. Hydrophilic sheets have a strong affinity to liquids and allow wicking of aqueous solutions. Hydrophobic sheets are specially formulated to repel liquids.
Poly methyl methacrylate pmma also known as acrylic or acrylic glass as well as by the trade names crylux plexiglas acrylic acrylite astariglas lucite perclax and perspex among several others see below is a transparent thermoplastic often used in sheet form as a lightweight or shatter resistant alternative to glass the same material can be used as a casting resin or in inks. Material scientists have been working on using various chemicals to alter the surface properties of a surfaces to make them hydrophobic. Aquaglide p for plastic surfaces. Hydrophobic coating diagram coatings tend to be more lubricious.
For example the contact angle of water on lotus is 140 hence that surface is termed superhydrophobic while water on plastic has a contact angle of 90 140 hence that surface is termed hydrophobic. 1 8 inch acrylic sheet clear cast 3mm plexiglass sheet 24x36 transparent acrylic glass 24x24 photo frame replacement pabel 5x7 clear acrylic plexi glass sheet by dycacrlic 39 99 39. Our sheets can be gamma or ethylene oxide sterilized. Nanomyte supercn and supercn plus are applicable to industrial.
Assuming that your 1 10 mix is calculated in weight the concentration is 100 000 µg g or 170000 molecules 1 000 000 molecules of mix. 99 99 99 99. On the other hand hydrophilic coatings that claim to be exceptionally lubricious have coefficients of friction in the range of 0 005 to 0 2.
