SURECO™ AF Series is a surface coating agent containing a fluorinated polyether. Excellent water and oil repellency, as well as anti-fouling properties, are achieved without altering the appearance, by forming a thin monomolecular layer on a surface such as glass. SURECO™ AF Series is suitable for wet coating, spray coating, dip coating and spin coating.

Properties
Processing Method
Pre-Treatment
Degreasing Treatment: Clean the substrate with a suitable solvent such as an alkaline cleaning agent and rinse the substrate surface with de-ionised water
Drying Treatment: Optionally clean the substrate surface with corona or plasma
Coating Types
Baking
Baking reduces the adhesion reaction time:
Examples: 120°C, ~10min / 80°C, ~15min / 60°C, ~2hrs / 25°C (Room Temperature), 40% Relative Humidity (RH),
~24hrs
Rinsing
If the surface is uneven, optionally wipe with a soft cloth or rinse the glass surface with a fluorinated solvent such as ASAHIKLIN™ AE-3000 or de-ionised water.
