Product Spotlight: Gellner Industrial’s Acrylic Resin for Wood Furniture Paint
Wood furniture is a common fixture of many households and commercial properties, but it goes through a lot. Beverage stains, cleaning products, scratching, abrasions–our furniture has to deal with many different types of damage, whether it’s household furniture, commercial furniture, or wooden furniture used in industrial environments. And any paint or coating used on wooden furniture needs to resist these various types of stains and damage in order to preserve the aesthetics of the furniture for a long time to come.
That’s where our acrylic resin, Ottopol SF-45 comes in, and that’s what this article is all about.
Ottopol SF-45: A Clear Coating for Wood Furniture Paint
Gellner Industrial’s Ottopol SF-45, a unique polymer that can be formulated into a clear coating for wood furniture. SF-45 is a high-density crosslinking polymer, meaning that it forms extremely strong bonds across its polymer chains. These stronger bonds in turn impart a variety of beneficial properties, such as stain and abrasion resistance, and better durability, The coating itself is also just tougher due to the crosslinking, being much less likely to scuff or flake away.
SF-45 offers all of these properties in a clear protective coating for wood furniture paint. The polymer self-crosslinks when drying at room temperature, making it much easier to apply while still getting the durability necessary to protect the substrate underneath. Like all of our polymers, SF-45 is water-based, meaning that it releases little to no VOCs, and also exhibits superior adhesion to most substrates, including wood. It can be used simply as a clear coating on natural wood, or as a protective top coat on wood furniture that has already been painted.
