Globally available cationic UV-curable silicone offers excellent release coating quality
New coating material strengthens Evonik's position in the global self-adhesive market
Continued growth of online commerce increases demand for high-performance label and packaging solutions
Evonik, the expert in UV-curable silicone release systems for over 30 years, has launched its latest release coating, TEGO® RC 1442. The new release coating is based on the existing technology of the RC 1400 series and thus offers customers the usual low release values. TEGO® RC 1442 has been specially developed for fast curing pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) applications and provides excellent adhesion to different surfaces while maintaining stable release values, even over a longer period of time and in high humidity conditions.
"Due to increasing customer demand for globally available, easy-to-apply and high-performance release coatings, we are continuously expanding our portfolio," says Stefan Stadtmüller, head of the TEGO® RC business at Evonik. "This means we always offer our customers the right solutions, for example for the changing requirements for release coatings from the growing online shopping market."
Evonik's TEGO® RC silicones are ideal for use as release coatings and can be used in a variety of applications, including industrial release coatings, self-adhesive labels, graphic products, adhesive tapes, hygiene products, and food packaging and food contact applications.
