描述
Xylan 4090 is a high-performance primer from Whitford Corporation (now PPG), specifically formulated as a foundation layer for Xylan fluoropolymer coating systems . As an authorized distributor and trader, we supply genuine materials with full traceability and direct access to official technical documentation .
Unlike Xylan 1010, 1014, or 1070, which are functional topcoat dry-film lubricants, Xylan 4090 is a specialized primer designed to provide excellent adhesion to metal substrates and dramatically enhance the corrosion protection and durability of the overall coating system .
Xylan 4090 is particularly critical for demanding applications in the oil & gas, aerospace, automotive, and industrial fastener industries, where components must withstand extreme conditions . When used in conjunction with Xylan topcoats (1000/1400 series) and proper substrate pretreatment (e.g., zinc-nickel plating), the system can achieve salt spray resistance exceeding 5,000 hours . The combination of Xylan 4090 primer with PTFE-based topcoats creates a barrier that resists corrosion, galling, abrasion, and chemical attack .

Processing Guidelines for Xylan 4090 Coating
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| Surface Preparation | Degrease → grit-blast (Sa2.5) → apply zinc-nickel or phosphate pretreatment (recommended for maximum corrosion protection) |
| Primer Application | Apply Xylan 4090 by spray, dip, or dip-spin coating |
| Flash-off | Allow solvents to flash off at room temperature |
| Curing | Follow manufacturer specifications; cure temperature depends on substrate and topcoat requirements |
| Topcoat Application | Apply Xylan topcoat (1000/1400 series) over cured primer |
| Final Cure | Complete curing according to system specifications |
| Storage | Store in original, sealed containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Shelf life: 18 months |
Critical Processing Warnings:
Surface Preparation: Proper surface preparation is critical for adhesion and corrosion performance. The recommended pretreatment (zinc-nickel or phosphate) significantly enhances corrosion resistance—salt spray can reach 5,000+ hours .
Primer Application: Xylan 4090 is a primer that requires a compatible Xylan topcoat (1000/1400 series) for the complete protective system .
Curing: Cure parameters depend on substrate material, part mass, and oven characteristics. Always verify with test pieces.
Storage: Store in original, sealed containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
