描述
Xylan 8530 is a food-grade, PTFE-based low-friction coating from Whitford Corporation (now PPG), part of the Xylan® 8500 Series. As an authorized distributor and trader, we supply genuine materials with full traceability and direct access to official technical documentation.
Developed by fluoropolymer coating specialist Whitford Plastics, Xylan 8530 is currently being used on knife blades where it provides a low-friction, non-stick finish that is corrosion resistant and fully acceptable for food use. Once treated with Xylan 8530, a knife cuts quickly and easily thanks to reduced resistance, and is also more easily cleaned after use.
The Xylan 8500 Series is distinguished by striking colors, including bright white and metallic finishes, and low processing temperatures of 525°F (275°C). These coatings are versatile as they bond well to steel and aluminum and require minimal surface preparation. The cured film is stain-resistant and unaffected by cooking oils, dishwasher detergents, and many household chemicals.
