MACDERMID ENTHONE INDUSTRIAL SOLUTIONS

INDUSTRIAL SOLUTIONS

For generations, MacDermid Enthone Industrial Solutions has been at the forefront of creating new standards for advanced surface preparation technologies for the world’s most critical metal and plastics finishing applications. Examples include hexavalent chromium and cobalt-free anti-corrosion finishes for brake calipers and fasteners. Our recent technology developments, such as our dark satin decorative chromium for exterior trim and lead / cadmium-free wear resistant coatings for power train, address environmental issues.

PERFORMANCE MATERIALS

Cars and chromium have been linked together for decades. Reaching its peak in the flamboyant styling of the 1950’s, chromium wheels, trim and accents have historically been used by car designers to help impart a distinctive look to their cars. With the move to lighter vehicles, plastic replaced much of the metal trim. MacDermid Enthone chemists were the pioneers of plating on plastic for decorative automotive applications and for decades ‘bright chromium plate’ was the finish of choice. Extensive choice of color, gloss levels and Electrolac UV enables designers to deliver a contemporary coating onto both plastic and heat sensitive substrates. This coating can be applied over bright and satin nickel.

DECORATIVE COATINGS

ZINC-NICKEL FINISHESZinc-Nickel finishes, at 12%-15% nickel by weight, are widely used for both interior and exterior applications. Enviralloy and Kenlevel zinc-nickel systems are optimized for applications such as brackets, brake calipers, door strikers and latches, fasteners and fluid transfer tubes.

TOPCOATS AND SEALERSAll fasteners need to meet a designed maximum proof load. Creating the correct torque-tension relationship allows designers to achieve maximum joint security without exceeding the proof load of the fastener.

Zinc and zinc alloys demonstrate a relatively high and variable coefficient of friction. This can adversely affect the torque-tension properties of fasteners. If fasteners are used without friction control fluid, the increase in friction results in lower bolt tension for a given torque, resulting in a joint weakness, which leads to poor clamping, insecure joints the possibility of premature bolt fatigue failure. Conversely, too much can lead to bolt fracture and thread stripping. These factors become even more crucial in safety critical applications, such as wheels, seat belts, steering and suspension component systems. The solution is lubricated topcoats that provide both a lower friction coating than simply metal to metal joints and also ensure more predictability, avoiding too low or too high clamping forces.

ZinKlad is the premier global auditing program for hexavalent chromium-free zinc-based automotive anti-corrosion coatings. MacDermid Enthone ZinKlad coatings have provided hexavalent-free coatings for automotive applications for over 15 years. During that time, ZinKlad evolution enabled many global OEM’s to specify higher standards than had previously been achievable.

Today, ZinKlad represents more than just hexavalent chromium free coatings:

Approved ApplicatorsApplying coatings to an audited standard ensures the same coating performance throughout the applicator base.

High PerformanceZinKlad exceeds the corrosion resistance of hexavalent chromate systems with exceptionally consistent torque and tension characteristics.

Global ConsistencyWherever ZinKlad coatings are applied, applicators benefit from the predictability of identical high performance products.

Compliance with legislation, such as ELV & RoHS, continues to be an essential requirement. ZinKlad delivers on all of these needs.

KEY FEATURES• Approved Applicators • High Performance• Global Consistency

Film Insert Moulding (FIM) is a versatile and cost effective method of decorating and manufacturing plastic parts. It is an advanced form of In Mould Decoration (IMD) or In Mould Labelling (IML). To begin, the flat film is reverse decorated (normally screen printed), then optionally formed, cut and finally back injection moulded.With FIM you can easily integrate components such as lens and body into a single unit using just one piece of our formable hard coated film.

KEY BENEFITSCost effectiveness and manufacturing efficiency Integrating many components into one single part saves on tooling and assembly costs. Our hard coated films are also available with a matte base finish which improves robotic handling during automated stacking and feeding operations.

Wide spectrum of decoration effectsDepending on the specific film, products can be moulded to almost any shape and depth. Use AutoForm™ for shallow parts or XtraForm™ for ultimate deep forming. These films can be decorated using a wide range of printing techniques, most commonly screen printing.

Create custom texturesFototex 3D™ lacquers are intermixable allowing an infinite range of bespoke finishes and enabling designs to incorporate different blocks of textures on a part to create detailed fine lines or text. Fototex 3D uses a hybrid cure technology (solvent and UV) that creates an incredibly hard, abrasion and solvent resistant finish that exceeds the latest OEM specifications.

Extreme durabilityOur unique hard coated films offer excellent hardness, abrasion and chemical resistance. The films are reverse printed thereby protecting the decoration without requiring spray painting or any other post mould process. Our films meet the specifications of the automotive, appliance and telecoms industries.

Automotive Todays markets expect a smooth, high quality finish to the surface area of car interior trim and decorative parts. At MacDermid Autotype we can deliver these finishes with our FIM processes and XtraForm, a formable, hard coated polycarbonate film with a deep, high gloss finish. Designed to be UV cured, these provide maximum formability, with scratch and chemical resistance. The durability of the surface produced makes for an attractive long lasting quality component. In addition, Fototex 3D texture varnishes offer a cost effective method of adding selective surface texture or antiglare effects to a part such as instrument clusters, HVACs, radio bezels, touch screens, touch panels, PRNDL and trims.

Telecoms MacDermid Autotype hard coated films can be used for In Mould Labelling (IML) to create lenses, housing and keypads and even offer the possibility of integrating the housing and lens, for example outer casings for mobile phones. The films offer unrivalled pencil hardness, scratch and abrasion resistance.

Appliance Flat or formed control panels with domed switches and lenses can be integrated into one component using MacDermid Autotype hard coated films. The films’ resistance to scratch, abrasion and harsh chemicals provides superior control panel durability for demanding domestic appliance applications.

It takes more than innovation, high performance products and superior technical service to help our customers compete and win in today’s global market place. It takes a total commitment to understand their needs and the ability to provide the right solutions – every time.
