Both fluorocarbon and polysiloxane have excellent weather resistance when apply in protective topcoat. But the biggest drawback of fluorocarbon is its environmental persistence. It has high fluoro content, and doesn't meet PFAS policy requirements. Quark's polysiloxane resin offers high solids/low viscosity, low VOC, is free of isocyanate, has outstanding weatherability, is safe and eco-friendly, it is the ideal selection to formulate solvent-free or high-solids coatings. 

Absolutely. We recommend to design the coatings system in 2 primer coats + 2 topcoats, 4 coats in total, with a film thickness over 250µm.

Generally speaking, the application solid content of polysiloxane coatings can reach over 95%. For a film thickness of 80-100μm, the spreading rate is 0.16 kg/m², equivalent to 6 m²/kg.

Yes, of course. Applying polysiloxane coatings on wind turbine towers and blades is relatively typical and innovative application. The anti-icing performance is good. We recommend to create the primer-topcoat-in-one coating with polysiloxane resins. 

The adhesion of epoxy polysiloxane coatings on aluminum, galvanized substrates is not very good, it requires pairing with a suitable epoxy primer.

When applied polysiloxane coatings over smooth ceramic or glass surfaces, a primer with good adhesion is required.
