You
may not know what glass resins are, but chances are good that
you have used a product made with them.
Glass
resins are a family of polysiloxane polymers used in a variety
of applications, including.
- Abrasion
Resistant Coatings for Plastics
- Glass resins provide a hard, scratch resistant coating
on a variety of plastic substrates, such as eyeglass lenses,
automotive instrument panel covers, cell phone windows,
face shields, head lamp cover, lamp shrouds, and industrial
visors.
- Electronics
Coatings - Glass resins are used in the manufacture
of microelectronic devices, flame proof coatings for resistors
and circuit board coatings.
- Mold
Release Agents - Glass resins are used to make
semipermanent mold release coatings which enable molders
to get multiple releases on elastomeric parts while running
cleaner and maintaining paintability.
- High
Temperature Applications - Glass resins are used
by formulators to manufacture mold releases for handling
hot glass and as high temperature impregnation coatings
for fabrics to replace asbestos
Glass
resins are manufactured in Perrysburg, OH from high purity
monomered using proprietary technology. They are thermally
curing resins (cured by condensation) with an alternating
silicon-oxygen backbone that yields hard, chemically resistant
films.
The
glass resins operation is designed to allow us to operate
with maximum flexibility. We can manufacture and ship standard
products within days and will modify standard products—percent
solids, solvents, and packaging—to meet customer needs.
