Product Description
Protektor PolyCoat UV is a high-performance photopolymer resin coating specifically engineered to protect metal substrates from corrosion, oxidation, and harsh environmental conditions. It forms a durable, transparent film with excellent adhesion, superior mechanical properties, and chemical resistance.
The coating cures instantly when exposed to a medium-pressure mercury vapor UV lamp, delivering rapid line speeds and high productivity. With a viscosity of 21 seconds (Zahn Cup #4 at 25°C) and density of 1.13 g/cm³, the formulation is optimized for spray, dip, or roller application in industrial settings.
Key Benefits
-
UV Curable: Rapid cure under UV light; improves throughput and reduces downtime.
-
Superior Adhesion: Passes Cross Hatch Test, ensuring excellent bond with metals.
-
Anti-Corrosion Protection: Provides long-term resistance to rust, oxidation, and moisture.
-
High Clarity: Dries clear and does not interfere with visual inspection of underlying parts.
-
Mechanical & Chemical Resistance: Withstands wear, abrasion, and chemical exposure.
-
VOC-Compliant & Solvent-Free: Reduced environmental impact and safer workplace use.
Applications
-
Protective coating for metal tools, fixtures, sheet metals, and machined parts.
-
Ideal for use in automotive, aerospace, industrial machinery, and precision electronics.
-
Suitable for in-line UV cure systems or batch-curing environments.

🧴 Directions for Use
-
Surface Preparation
-
Ensure metal surface is clean, dry, and free from oil, dust, or oxidation.
-
Use an appropriate degreaser or solvent wipe to prepare surface.
-
-
Application Methods
-
Spray, dip, or roll uniformly over the surface.
-
Recommended wet film thickness: 30–50 microns.
-
-
UV Curing Process
-
Use medium pressure mercury vapor lamp (300 W/in; 3 kW total power).
-
Maintain 2-inch curing distance from lamp surface.
-
Pass substrate under lamp at >100 ft/min for optimal results.
-
-
Post-Cure Handling
-
Cured surface is ready for handling immediately.
-
Full chemical resistance may develop within 24 hours.
-
Precautions
-
Store in a cool, dark, dry place away from sunlight and ignition sources.
-
Avoid skin or eye contact. Use appropriate PPE during application.
-
Do not use in confined spaces without adequate ventilation.
-
Ensure UV safety shields are in place to protect operators during curing.
