Industrial Coatings

Xylan® coatings provide a thin layer of lubrication to prevent the asperities on mating surfaces from making physical contact with each other. The selection of the best dry lubricant, such as PTFE, moly, or graphite, for these applications depends primarily on the PV (Pressure X Velocity), atmosphere and operating temperature of the application.

Whitford thin-film Xylan® and Xylar® coatings offer key properties:

• Chemical resilience
• High thermal stability
• Low coefficient of friction
• Other high-performance properties

Resilon®: A water-based solution, the Resilon range is used on flexible substrates throughout the automotive industry such as rubber and plastic seals on vehicles to reduce ‘itch and squeak’. Read more...

Coating failures occur for a number of reasons; the below links outline the most common complaints that coating manufacturers have to address, the coating appearance, the probable cause of the problem and suggested solutions to rectify the problems. Read more...

Vortices trailing high-speed impeller blades, impacting gear teeth, bearings spinning in races, slapping piston skirts, plungers sliding against the walls of actuators, reciprocating detents and other sources of vibration are dampened when treated with Xylan. Under impact, noise generation is reduced. Read more...
