Summary of System II - UV Urethane Acrylate
1. All of the coatings prepared with fluoroalkyl silicones had reduced COFs and increased mar resistance.
2. Gloss is reduced by all FS and FA types but not the FPE types, indicating a compatibility problem with FS and FA types.
3. Performance in stain resistance is similar in all.
4. FA 3ACR, FPE 1 and FPE 2 give relatively high ratings for gloss, mar and stain resistance.
5. FS 2, FA 4 and FA 3ACR give the best finger print resistance. The better performance of FS 2 to FS 1 is surprising because the
latter has higher CF2 content and was expected to perform the best.
6. FA 4 - which has a balance of silicone, %CF2, and %CH2 contents in the structure - gives a very good balance of properties.
