SOREA’s color products offer a very high cross-linked coating system that have excellent long term value. The most critical difference between high and low crosslink coating systems is the actual number of chemical bonds holding the molecules together. The higher the cross linked density of a coating, the higher the overall film toughness and chemical resistance. Because Sorea’s color products are very high cross-linked, they offer the best long term value and overall quality.
The color products we use today were first introduced to the U.S in the 60’s primarily for the Aerospace industry to protect surfaces that were subjected to sand and ice particles at hundreds of miles per hour. Sorea’s Color products are the most resilient of color systems available.
The impact durability of our color products are superior to other types of coatings and rate a 10 in scruff and mar tests. This durability translates to a tough coating that takes constant abuse with a minimum wear.
A distinct advantage of a high cross linking color product, like Sorea’s, is the rich wear layer that forms at the surface during the curing cycle. This layer provides long term protection for the pigment particles, improves color and gloss retention and gives that deep, rich gloss associated with high quality urethanes.
In addition to providing aesthetic qualities, this rich wear layer also provides a versatile barrier to all forms of punishment from caustic acids, abrasives, solvents in cosmetics, dyes, etc.
Sorea’s color products have ultra-violet light screening agents U.V.R and ULTRABLOCK protecting the surface against harmful light radiation which will turn many coatings, particularly epoxies, prematurely yellow. These products can be used indoor or outdoor, dry or wet environments.
