SPS Graphene who sought to create an advanced coating on the market by pushing the bounds of technology, research, and development. Graphene reduces heat on the substrate, making water spotting much less likely and bird droppings come of with ease, without damaging the coating or substrate, unlike ceramic coatings.
SPS continues to develop what is considered to be one of the most advanced protective coatings in the industry. SPS coatings are engineered to increase durability and performance by utilizing advanced nano technology including graphene, the most studied materials since winning the Noble Prize in 2010. SPS works alongside with engineers and scientists to further advance our technology.
Graphene is said to be a miracle material due to an abundance of beneficial properties. Even in it’s simplest form, a thin one atom thick substance, it is the lightest, strongest, thinnest material known to man.
Being a carbon-based material coupled with the presence of oxygen functionalities, graphene oxide can be easily dispersed in organic solvents, water, and polymer matrixes. This compatibility as a filler with polymer coatings (in this case polydimethylsiloxanes) is crucial, as it allows coatings to benefit from its properties.
Graphene decreases water-spotting potential. Stubborn etchings will be less likely to penetrate and damage treated surfaces.
With a low surface friction, and a high contact angle of 125o, Graphene helps resist fine scratching and swirling, all while letting water fly of with ease.
Graphene features an amazing 5 year rated bond with the surface when installed professionally
Graphene ensures bird droppings, tree sap, dead bugs, and harsh chemicals will be less likely to penetrate and damage treated surfaces
Even when stretched in its one-atom thick form, Graphene does not tear due to its high tensile strength. When combined with PDMS coatings, Graphene helps to make for an even stronger coating
Graphene also allows for easier cleaning, provides a wet, glossy look, enhances reflectivity, and has both anti-fouling and UV resistance properties
