Similarities and differences between fluorocarbon paint and metal paint

Thread Content

Metal anti-corrosion paint, also known as metal flash paint, is a popular type of automotive topcoat nowadays. Fine aluminum particles are added to its paint base. When light hits the aluminum particles, it is reflected back by those particles through the gas film. Therefore, it seems as though the metal is shining. This type of metallic glitter paint gives people a pleasant, lively, and innovative feeling, which is why it is very common these days. By changing the shape and size of the aluminum particles, it is possible to control the degree of shimmer in the metal foil paint film. On top of the metal paint, there is an additional layer of varnish for protection. Fluorocarbon paint is made from fluorocarbon resins, pigments, additives, etc., and it is one of the coatings with the best overall performance available today. Due to the presence of bonds with the highest bond energy among organic compounds within the resin molecules, fluorocarbon paint possesses many special properties that are superior to those of ordinary paints. It is mainly manifested in aspects such as weather resistance, salt resistance, wash resistance, and non-adhesion. All of the above technical specifications are several times higher than those of ordinary coatings. Therefore, fluorocarbon paint is known as the \"king of coatings\".
