NewPro NANOFLEX VP 20
HIGH QUALITY SIO2- COATINGS BASED ON NANO-TECHNOLOGY FOR SMOOTH GLASS AND GLAZED CERAMIC SURFACES
NewPro NC Flex VP 20 gives non-absorbent, mineral surfaces such as glass, ceramic or polished natural stone a reliable non-stick performance, particularly against limescale, urine scale, soap residues and other hygiene products.
Its water and dirt-repellent properties extend the scope of application to automotive glass, solar and building protection.
The strong chemical bond to the OH surface groups guarantees outstanding permanence to weather resistance, as well as mechanical and chemical durability.
Through the intelligent arrangement of hybrid (organic and inorganic) structures, NewPro NC Flex VP 20 constitutes concept.
EXAMPLES OF USE:
• Gel coat of boats
• Plexiglas
and other plastic surfaces
PRODUCT PROPERTIES:
• Glass surfaces in sanitary areas (showers, mirrors)
• Glazed ceramic surfaces (toilets, sinks, glazed tiles)
• Window glass + construction glass (conservatories, high-rise buildings)
• Automotive glass (front + side windows)
• Solar panels
PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS:
• Strong hydrophobicity
• Strong anti-stick properties
• Excellent easy-clean performance on contamination and lime-scale
• Food-safe (inert)
OTHER PROPERTIES:
• Invisible to the human eye (coating thickness: 100-150 nm)
• Permanent (UV-stable, enormous abrasion-resistance)
• Resistant to temperature change
• Breathable
• Simple application (do-it-yourself)
• Chemical-resistant (except for pH value of 13 or 14)

APPLICATION:
Simple do-it-yourself application makes it suitable for end-customers as well:
1. Manual: Application with circular motion using a clean paper, linen or microfibre cloth.
2. Industrial: Available as polish-coat systems or spray-coating systems.
This SiO2-coating is completely networked and hardened after 24 hours. The easy-clean effect can only be tested after this hardening phase.
STORAGE STABILITY:
Unopened original containers can be stored for at least 2 years.
Recommended storage- and transport temperature: -3 to 30°C
CONSUMPTION:
Manual: 5-10 ml/m², Industrial: 10-15 ml/m²
ADVANTAGES OF SIO2-COATINGS IN COMPARISON WITH COMPETITIVE PRODUCTS:
• Permanence and longevity:
UV-stability enables functionality for a number of years, approximately the lifetime of the coated surface. Many competitive products are damaged slowly by sunlight.
• Abrasion-resistant easy-clean effect
A permanent chemical bond with the substrate enables excellent abrasion resistance.
Many competitive products can be easily removed by abrasion.
• Chemical stability
The product is resistant to almost all standard household and industrial cleaners (with the exception of concentrated lye).
Many competitive products must be reapplied after cleaning the surface.
NewPro NC Flex VP 20 is also available in VP 16, VP 12 and H9 quality grades. A fluorine free version can be supplied. These formulae contain a lower percentage of active components. The product is ethanol-based and a hazardous material according to ADR and IATA, however, it can be shipped as a solvent-free liquid concentrate.
Please observe the relevant safety data sheet when using NewPro NC Flex VP 20.
