Recently, the field of superhydrophobic materials has witnessed an innovative breakthrough - IOTA ST6 nano-ceramic resin has attracted attention with its unique properties. Combining nano-ceramic particles and polymer resin, this material creates a microscopic "lotus effect" structure, making the contact angle of water on its surface exceed 150°. Water droplets roll off instantly, achieving a "water-repellent" superhydrophobic effect.
Compared with traditional coatings, IOTA ST6 has significant advantages. It not only resists the adhesion of water, oil stains and dust, but also has excellent high-temperature resistance (-50℃ to 200℃) and scratch resistance. With a coating thickness of only 5-10 microns, it can achieve long-term protection. Currently, the material has been pilot-applied in fields such as automotive glass, electronic device casings and building exteriors. For example, after spraying on automotive glass, it can reduce the interference of rain and fog and improve driving safety; when applied to electronic devices, it can reduce the risk of damage from liquid spills.
Experts stated that the promotion of IOTA ST6 will drive the upgrading of surface protection technology, and it may also expand to high-end fields such as medical equipment and aerospace in the future, bringing new "cost reduction and efficiency improvement" solutions to multiple industries.
