描述
Xylan 88-040 is a PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) powder mid- or topcoat from Whitford Corporation (now PPG). As an authorized distributor and trader, we supply genuine materials with full traceability and direct access to official technical documentation.
Xylan is a family of thin-film fluoropolymer coatings originally developed by Whitford Corporation, now part of PPG Industries. Built from materials such as PTFE, PFA, and FEP, Xylan coatings form a durable dry-film barrier that helps reduce friction, resist corrosion, and protect surfaces against wear, adhesion, and chemical attack. Xylan coatings provide a 10%–67% reduction in coefficient of friction and corrosion resistance tested to AMS 2438 per ASTM B-117.
Xylan 88-040 is a PFA powder coating offering thick film builds, resulting in better release and longer life. It is designed for high-release applications where superior nonstick performance and chemical resistance are critical. PFA provides enhanced chemical resistance and high-temperature performance compared to other fluoropolymers, making it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
