The environment plays a critical role when it comes to coating processes. This is especially true when it comes to high humidity conditions. Being aware of the issues high humidity can cause when choosing coating products is the first step in choosing a reliable coating product. At Sun Coating Company, we can help narrow down the choices to ensure the one you choose provides the best results.
Effects of High Humidity on Coating Processes
When high humidity is present, the coating on surfaces can be negatively affected because moisture can filter or find its way into the coating. This results in problems, such as corrosion, blistering, improper curing, and weakened adhesion to the surface. The substrate/material may then begin to flake or peel.
Coating Selection
At Sun Coating Company, we are a leader in supplying Teflon® that addresses the many conditions that substrate/surfaces encounter, including high humidity.
When consulting with our experienced staff, they will provide you with information about Chemours Teflon® finishes, and help you choose the appropriate industrial application(s) necessary for your business.
Whether the coating is for metal or non-metallic surfaces, coating products are designed to provide the highest level of adhesion. From aluminum and brass to fiberglass and plastics, Chemours has a high-quality coating.

- Teflon® FEP – superior nonstick properties.
- Teflon® PFA works continuously at elevated temperatures.

Additional Coating Processes
Another coating product supplied by our company is Synoloy’s® weld spatter-resistant coating. For companies involved with welding, spatter is a common occurrence and one that can be costly in both productivity and production costs.
With the application of the spatter-resistant coating, gone are the days of having to scrap and clean equipment. Not only does the coating protect work areas, but it also helps prevent damage to equipment.
Benefits of Weld-Splatter Coatings
For any company, efficient production time, lower maintenance costs, reduced downtime, fewer maintenance calls, better quality, and a more productive and efficient workplace are all on the priority list. For these reasons, choosing Sunoloy® is the right choice.
Sunoloy® coatings also provide the following:
- Better fit-ups (equipping).
- Production costs are lowered.
- Enhanced safety in work areas.
- When equipment is stored, the coating prevents corrosion.
- Protecting the equipment not only extends the lifetime of fixtures and equipment but it also protects your investment.
- Non-migratory, which makes the coating compatible with downstream painting processes.
Appropriate industrial coating is essential for any business involved in providing quality products. Whenever your company has a need for other types of coating services, contact one of our sales representatives about additional Sunoloy® products. These include products such as Excalibur as a highly efficient anti-stick coating or Whitford Xylan® for coatings that are specifically designed to resist corrosion.
