In this one-hour course, we will discover the strengths and advantages of FEVE fluoropolymer topcoats. We will evaluate coating performance tests including accelerated weathering and real-time weathering and what the implications are for the life of different coatings. We will explore the many design possibilities that FEVE technology provides and assess the sustainability benefits of FEVE topcoats despite their higher initial cost compared to other topcoat formulations.
Learning Objectives:
- Define FEVE coating technology and examine the forms and finishes available to meet a host of varied application environments safely
- Discuss the characteristics of the four main types of FEVE resins and explain how they are positively contributing to a healthier environment
- Explore how the composition of FEVE promotes sustainability and improved indoor air quality efforts
- Analyze case studies to see how FEVE coatings are helping to reduce hazardous wastes while increasing the life-cycle of buildings.
