Additives to create easy-to-clean laminated surfaces
Innovative Solution
These easy-to-clean (ETC) additives are compatible and crosslinkable with typical aqueous amino resins used for surface layers of low pressure laminates (LPL), high pressure laminates (HPL) and continous pressure laminates (CPL).
Under the right conditions, laminate surfaces with ETC effect and anti-soiling properties with reduced dirt adhesion and improved oil- and water-repellency can be produced which can be used for furniture, desks and kitchen tops.
Sustaintable Solution
With the right combination of all additives for the laminating process, the surface energy of the décor surface can be reduced.
The bonding of the laminate to the board is not affected.
ETC effect is persistant within the typical service life and use of the laminate surface
Safe Solution
FENTAK® SA31705 & SA31708 (easy-to-clean additives) are based on a highly engineered and functionalized modified organopolysiloxane delivered in different solvents with low (SA31705) and high (SA31708) boiling point.
Cost-effective Solution
Enable effortless maintenance and preserve the laminate surface appearance.
Cleaning saving costs: an anti-fingerprint effect can be achieved when laminates with FENTAK® SA31705/SA31708 are pressed using a specially designed press plates.
