NANOMYTE® SR-100
NANOMYTE® SR-100 is a two-component liquid coating that provides abrasion and scratch resistance to plastic substrates. It forms a ceramic-like hard surface that is needed in a variety of industrial and consumer applications, such as ophthalmic & sportswear lenses, automobile, airplane windows, and 3D printed parts. SR-100 is thermally cured and can be applied on surfaces using standard coating processes, such as dip-coating, spray coating, and spin-coating.

- Coating Application
It is recommended that coating application be performed in a clean environment to minimize surface defects. To make the coating solution, combine Part A and Part B at 9/1 weight ratio and mix well by stirring briefly. The coating may be applied by spraying, dipping, flowing, brushing or rolling. For spraying, an HVLP spray gun with a nozzle size of <1.0 mm is recommended; and the pressure should be set at approximately 25 to 30 psi. The induction time for spray application is 30 min, i.e., wait at least 30 minutes after mixing before coating application. For other application methods, it is recommended to age the mixed solution for at least 16 hours to obtain a highly transparent coating. For Best Performance : Although the mixed coating solution is stable indefinitely, it is recommended to use the solution within 72 hours after mixing for best results.
- Surface Preparation
Ensure surfaces to be coated are clean and dry and apply a primer if necessary. NEI supplies two primers for polymer substrates: SRP-50 for PMMA and SRP-51 for PC. The primer may be applied by dipping, flowing, spinning, rolling or spraying. For spraying, an HVLP spray gun with a nozzle size of <1.0 mm is recommended, and the pressure should be set at approximately 25 to 30 psi. A single pass of spraying is recommended for the primer. The primed parts should be dried at 80ºC for 10 min before application of NANOMYTE® SR-100.
