描述
Xylan 8870 is a solvent-based, FEP-based reinforced nonstick coating 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 8870 is part of the Xylan 8800 Series of high-cure fluoropolymer coatings. It is closely related to Xylan 8840, sharing the same FEP-based formulation that provides exceptional nonstick and release properties. However, Xylan 8870 is specifically reinforced for improved abrasion resistance, making it the preferred choice for applications where wear resistance is a primary requirement.
Xylan 8870 offers excellent release properties, is stain, wear, abrasion, household chemical, and high-temperature resistant. Its unique “plastic alloy” structure, formed through composite material technology, delivers ultra-low friction (coefficient as low as 0.02), excellent wear resistance, and all-environment corrosion resistance. The coating is food-contact acceptable, making it suitable for applications requiring FDA compliance.
Typical applications include mould release in a range of industries, heat sealing bars, post or pre-formed cookware, domestic appliances, weld fixtures (to prevent weld spatter from sticking), and epoxy resin moulds.

Processing Guidelines for Xylan 8870 Coating
| Step | Process |
|---|---|
| Surface Preparation | Degrease (acetone or isopropanol) → grit-blast (Sa2.5, Ra 1.5–4.0 μm) → optional phosphate pretreatment for steel |
| Coating Preparation | Low-speed mechanical stirring; dilute with manufacturer-recommended solvent |
| Application | Spray (conventional or HVLP), dip, or dip-spin coating |
| Curing | High-temperature cure; supports curing from ambient temperature to 425°C (800°F) |
| 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. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and properly roughened.
Reinforced Formulation: Xylan 8870 is reinforced for improved abrasion resistance compared to Xylan 8840. Select this grade when wear resistance is a primary requirement.
Food-Contact Compliance: For food-contact applications, ensure the coating meets applicable FDA requirements.
Curing: High-temperature cure required. Cure time depends on 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.
