Nano-technology? October 02 2014

What is Nano-technology?

In the science world, the word nanometer (Nm) bases itself on the sizes of individual atoms where 1 Nm is a billionth (10-9) of a meter.

Most paint coatings are ground to the micron level (1 millionth of a meter). Nano-particles are thousands of times smaller. That is why they are used to engineer surface coatings like pigments and polymers at a molecular level.

Conventional coatings (without the use of nano-technology) have particles which have spaces between them that are large enough to allow dust, dirt and scratching.  Nano-particles on the other hand are so microscopic that they bond together so closely a type of film is formed which prevents anything from penetrating those particles.

The results?

  • UV resistant
  • Mold resistant
  • Have structural grade adhesion
  • Are color stable
  • Multi-functional  -  fill, bond & color.
