Protective coating ALUCOMAT® EZ CLEAN

exterior wallfacadeweather-resistant

In the tropical and subtropical regions, the climate conditions are mostly strong sunshine, high temperature, frequent rainfall, high humidity and serious air pollution with dust particles in the air. The appearances of exterior walls of buildings exposed to such environment get dirty easily and require frequent cleaning and maintenance. However, in case of high-rise buildings, cleaning is difficult, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and incurs extra expenses. ALUCOMAT® EZ Clean is a new product launched in 2020. Its surface is finished with the functional coating that perfectly combines the "Nano Easy-clean Technology" developed in cooperation with our national research institute, ITRI, and the new generation of fluorocarbon Lumiflon® FEVE paint, which is an ideal solution for exterior wall claddings that get dirty easily due to air pollution problems. Nanometer (abbreviation: nm) is a unit of length. One nanometer is equal to one billionth of a meter, which is about one-hundredth of average human hair diameter. Materials with any external dimension in the nanoscale (1-100nm) are defined as nanomaterials. Generally speaking, substances at nanoscale exhibit physical, chemical or biological properties that are completely different from those of bulk materials at the macroscopic scale. We use nanomaterial-grade particles to develop the Nano Easy-clean technology to achieve low surface tension and hydrophobicity.
