VICOTE® - VICTREX® PEEK™ Coating Technology
High Temperature Performance Coatings for Strength and Durability
VICOTE® Coatings, powder and liquid dispersions, based on
VICTREX® PEEK™ polymer offer exceptional scratch and wear resistance, high temperature performance, strength and durability. Eco-friendly VICOTE Coatings were developed to fill the performance gap found in many existing coating technologies today.
VICOTE Coatings provide numerous benefits when used in the coated parts of applications including:
- Improve wear performance
- Extend application life
- Improve product performance and functionality
- Reduced systems cost
- Facilitate design freedom
- Achieve product differentiation
VICOTE Coatings are the right choice for OEMs, design engineers, coaters and processors looking to improve wear performance and the lifespan of the coated parts in their application.
The performance properties of VICOTE Coatings provide many benefits to applications in markets such as:
The main ingredient of VICOTE Coatings is
VICTREX® PEEK™ polymer, a linear, aromatic, semi-crystalline thermoplastic, widely regarded as one of the highest performing thermoplastic materials in the world. It offers a unique combination of properties to help processors and end-users reach new levels of cost savings, performance, and product differentiation.
VICOTE Coatings reduce costs
VICOTE Coatings have excellent substrate adhesion, eliminating the need for a primer during the coating process. The primer-free process, plus the ability to achieve very thin coatings, contributes to reduced system costs.
VICOTE Coatings facilitate application design
VICOTE Coatings can be used as a stand-alone material or as complimentary to other coatings such as
fluoropolymers. Many businesses have experienced the value of VICOTE Coatings in applications such as needle roller bearings, rice cookers, industrial and food processing belts, textile manufacturing rollers, and molds.
Global Application Development Services
To support OEMs and coaters with the development and commercialization of VICOTE Coatings in their application design, Victrex has two application support service facilities; The Asia Innovation and Technology Centre (AITC), located in the Xinzhuang Industry Park in Shanghai, China and the
VICOTE Coatings Application Development Center (VADC), located at Victrex headquarters in Thornton Cleveleys, Lanchashire, United Kingdom. Both centers provide customers with expertise and support in materials specification, training, prototyping, testing, and research.
