MOULD COATING
Mould coating is FEP based high-performance non-stick fluoropolymer coating used for mould release in demanding industrial applications, including MS and Aluminium moulds, offering excellent release properties, good abrasion resistance, and food contact acceptability, operating at temperatures up to 205°C (400°F). It’s a solvent-borne liquid that provides a durable, low-friction surface, preventing sticking in processes like confectionery moulding, textile drying, and foam production, significantly improving efficiency and part longevity.

Key Features for Thermocol Molds

  • Food Contact Acceptable: Suitable for applications in the food industry, like cake moulds or chocolate trays.
  • Packaging Industry : Suitable for applications of thermocol moulds.
  • Durable & Resistant: Provides resistance to wear, friction, and chemicals, extending mould life.
  • Solvent-Based: Applied as a liquid, it forms a tough, thin film after curing. 

Key Specifications for Mould Use

  • Release Property: Features a very high order of non-stick properties due to its FEP base.
  • Operating Temperature: Typically rated for continuous use up to 205°C (400°F). Some variants may handle up to 230°C (450°F).
  • Food Safety: It is formulated to be food-contact acceptable, making it ideal for the food processing industry.

Typical Applications

FEP  is used to solve “notoriously sticky” release problems in several fields: 

  • Food Industry: Sweet and chocolate moulds, cake trays, and biscuit mould die rolls.
  • Engineering & Manufacturing: Tyre moulds, polyurethane foam release, and dies for plastic moulding.
  • Other: Textile drying rollers and heat-sealing blades.
