Scratch Resistant Coatings

Formulated into radiation cured or water-based OPVs, NanoArcĀ® aluminum oxide dispersions provide mar and scratch resistance for thin, transparent overprint varnishes. Functioning differently than conventional additives, NanoArcĀ® aluminum oxide dispersions are active at low loading levels and do not adversely effect gloss. Since they do not migrate to the interfaces, they provide long-term scratch resistance without negatively impacting slip or coefficient of friction. read more

Aluminum Oxide

100% crystalline, non-porous, non-agglomerated Al2O3 nanoparticles produced in a variety of sizes from 20 to 800 nm. Nanomaterials are available in monomers, solvent, aqueous, and customized nano dispersions to meet your scratch resistance and transparency requirements. NanoArcĀ® dispersions are active at low loading levels and do not adversely effect gloss or mechanical properties of the firm. Since they do not migrate to interfaces, they can provide long-term scratch resistance and increase pencil hardness without negatively impacting slip, gloss, or re-coatability. read more
