Calyshield™
A range of lubricants
CalyShield™ is a PFAS and silicone replacement designed to overcome key challenges in coatings and elastomers. Traditional lubricants play a crucial role by reducing friction and wear yet they often face issues such as poor matrix compatibility, coating adhesion difficulties, regulatory restrictions, fogging, yellowing, and the loss of lubricant properties through leaching and washout.
CalyShield™ addresses these challenges by encapsulating lubricants, ensuring controlled release, enhanced abrasion resistance, and long-lasting performance, while fully protecting the lubricant throughout processing. It is compatible with solvent-based, waterborne, hybrid coatings, and powder matrices, making it highly versatile across industries.
Benefits:
- Full protection of functional materials against degradation, hydrolysis, oxidation and cross reaction even in demanding conditions
- Long-lasting performance during use of your products
- Full compatibility of functional materials within your polymer matrix or formulation
- More durability, longer service-life, and consistent high quality of your products
