1. Mill Finish
B - Disadvantages:
Have a much lower thermal conductivity and coefficient of linear
expansion than aluminium. As a result, the coating will crack (but will
not peel) from thermal stress if exposed to temperatures above 80°C.
Anodized Finish
Anodic films are most commonly applied to protect; Aluminum alloys,
Titanium, Zinc, Magnesium, Tantalum and Niobium.
This process is not a useful treatment for iron or carbon steel because
these metals’ iron oxide (also known as rust) flakes off, costantly
exposing the underlaying metal to corrosion.
A. Application:
Primary areas of application are aluminum extrusions and claddings
for architectural work. When screen-printing or sealants are in use,
we advise separate trials to ensure compatibility and that the
required performance criteria are met.
Super Durable Powder Coated Finish
B. Advantages:
Has an expected lifetime which is 3X as long as today’s high quality
architectural powder coatings. Backed by a 25 year guarantee.
Cost effective compared to expensive fluorocarbon-based wet paint.
Truly environment friendly because it’s solvent free and recyclable.
It surpasses Qualicoat Class II industry requirements.
Available in a wide range of colors and in three gloss levels; high gloss,
reduced gloss and matt finish.
C. Disadvantages:
Shall be keep in a dry cool area. Max 25°C/ relative humidity 60%.
5. Polyvinylidene Flouride (PVDF) Finish
PVDF is a specialty plastic material in the fluoropolymer family; it is
used generally in applications requiring the highest purity, strength, and
resistance to solvents, acids, bases and heat and low smoke generation
during a fire event. Compared to other fluoropolymers, it has an easier
melt process because of its relatively low melting point of around 177°C.
A. Usage:
A fine powder grade, KYNAR 500 PVDF or HYLAR 5000 PVDF, is also
used as the principal ingredient of high-end paints for metals. These
PVDF paints have extremely good gloss and color retention, and they are
in use on many prominent buildings around the world, e.g. the
Petronas Towers in Malaysia and Taipei 101 in Taiwan, as well as on
commercial and residential metal roofing.
Polyvinylidene Flouride (PVDF) Finish
B. Advantages:
Resistant to most acids, alkalis, salts, halogens, alcohols and chlorinated
hydro-carbons
High mechanical strength,
Operating temperature range -20°C to 140°C
Displays high excellent flame retardant properties.
C. Disadvantages:
A strong polarized solvents, such as ketones and esters, can cause the
material to swell.

6. Alodine Finish
Alodine is a coating based on Titanium
Metal Oxide (TiO2) electrodeposited from
the electrical assisted hydrolysis of metal
complexes. The TiO2 Coating provides
superior corrosion and wear resistance for
harsh and demanding applications such as
marine and high temperature engine
environments.
