The CeRam*Kote 54^® patented coatings technology, ceramic particle loading, results from Freecom's unique ability developed over fifteen years and the trial of hundreds of formulae. Ceramic particle loading is the addition of a complex series of ceramic particles into a resin solution which causes the resin solution to out-perform its basic chemistry.

Since originating the concept of ceramic particle loading in 1985, Freecom has used this unique technical know-how to produce multiple formulation of CeRam*Kote 54^®. Future product development will identify resin solutions that perform in areas outside the performance capability of the existing CeRam-Kote family of coatings and enhance their performance with ceramic particle loading.

THE "BE THERE" PROPERTY:

Adhesion: measured at >4,000 psi (27.98 Mpa) over carbon steel with very high adhesion values on most substrates. CeRam*Kote 54^® also provides excellent adhesion over hydro-blasted surfaces.

MECHANICAL PERFORMANCE PROPERTIES:

Abrasion resistance: CeRam*Kote 54^® will either solve the abrading problem or deliver four (4) or five (5) times the abrasion protection of competing thin-film coatings.

Flexibility: measured at 15% elongation

Lubricity: measured at a static coefficient of friction value similar to Teflon (PTFE) coatings materials, which when coupled with its toughness and extremely high adhesion, creates a performance property delivering Teflon-like lubricity for service in all tough and abrasive working environments.

CORROSION RESISTANCE PROPERTIES: TOP OF THE SCALE

OTHER PERFORMANCE PROPERTIES:

Dielectric strength: measured at >1750 volts per mil (>68 volts per micron).

Surface burning characteristics: Class 1 Fire and Smoke Rating over steel.

Field repairable: CeRam*Kote 54^® chemically bonds to itself with minimal surface preparation.

Machineable: When cured, CeRam*Kote 54^® can be honed to achieve tight tolerances.

Time-saving application: CeRam*Kote 54^® is a one-coat, two-pass, ambient cured system which is applied directly to the properly prepared substrate without need of a primer.
