Nanotechnology Causes Disruption - Cross Industry
BRIGHTON, Mich., Jan. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- Nanotechnology can be described as
the science of molecular engineering, and is currently changing the way many
industries think of surface coatings. Imagine a scratch-free automotive
finish, a barnacle-free boat hull, a self-cleaning aircraft or a wheel without
brake-dust. This vision has become a commercial reality using nanotechnology
materials and concepts. Nanovere Technologies based inBrighton, MI has
developed market-ready nanocoatings to significantly reduce OEM surface
scratching by over 50% and reduce surface cleaning by 60%.
The nanocoating platform is named Zyvere, and was specifically developed
to prevent surface scratching including car keys and to significantly reduce
surface cleaning and maintenance. Zyvere nanocoatings also improve fuel
efficiency for aircraft, improve wind turbine efficiency and reduce barnacle
adhesion on boat hulls. With all of these capabilities, you would expect a
dramatically higher price point. Not true. Zyvere nanocoatings are
competitively priced with other industry leading OEM coatings, but with far
greater performance.
What is so unique about Zyvere nanocoatings? According to Nanovere's
Chairman and Principal Scientist Thomas Choate, "Nanovere has developed a
complete line of patent pending 1K and 2K nanocoatings based on
nano-structured materials and concepts. Zyvere nanocoatings provide extreme
crosslink dense films with remarkable flexibility, and were designed to resist
scratching, improve clean-ability and improve UV resistance. Even after 5
years, our Nanovere nanocoatings have 100% gloss retention, a feat just not
possible with conventional clear coating finishes."
Nanovere works closely with global Automotive OEM's to improve gloss
retention from long-term car washing, prevent scratching, reduce vehicle
weight using Zyvere over polycarbonate (in place of glass), and to reduce the
unsightly appearance of brake dust on wheels. Nanovere's latest automotive
coating technology includes an eco-friendly 100% solids UV cure clear coating
with 7H pencil hardness and self-cleaning dirt release properties. By using
ultraviolet light energy to instantly cure the applied coating, significant
cost and energy savings are realized vs. conventional thermal cure systems.
Nanovere also works closely with aerospace leaders to improve fuel efficiency
and reduce deicing materials needed on the runway.
About Nanovere
Nanovere focuses on the research, development, manufacturing and licensing
of 1st to market nanocoating formulations with remarkable physical properties
including car keying resistance and self-cleaning properties. Nanovere has
developed a complete line of commercially available ambient cure, heat cure
and 100% solids UV cure nanocoating formulations serving the automotive,
aerospace, marine and industrial markets.
