Benefits & advantages of Nanotechnology for glass

Updated: Jun 11, 2019

Water repellent (hydrophobic) and dust repellent.
Protects glass from corrosion (acid rain, calciuim deposit, soap resiude etc)
Easily applied by spraying, polishing, immersion, smearing etc
Optically colourless/transparent.
Cures at room temperature.
Stable at various temperatures.
Low Cleaning and Maintenance requirements.
It retains the quality of the surface.
Ecologically beneficial & biologically safe.
Resistance against dirt, algae, scales etc
It saves time and money through self-cleaning effect.
Environmentally friendly product as it reduces the use of chemicals and saves water.

The nanoparticles are incorporated into an ethanol base, the ethanol acts as a carrying agent in spreading across the applied surface. Over the curing period, nanoparticles self-assemble across the surface and bond with the surface. The ethanol evaporates over the curing period leaving only the nanoparticles that form a uniform thin layer of 50 – 60 nm over the surface. They create a strong uniform bond with the glass. The life of the coating is very long and visibly active on a building facade for up to 5 years. (Longer on new glass)
Windows and glass coated with Nanotechnology become superhydrophobic with rain and water beading and rolling off the surface taking away with it dirt, grime and other contaminants.
This glass coat is optically neutral and completely transparent.
Because of anti-adhesive properties, surface dirt does not adhere to the surface. It is easy-to-clean and remains stain-resistant.
Nanotechnology coated windows become anti-corrosive and highly resistant to acidic & alkaline solutions. It protects corrosion of glass from acid rain and also prevents the growth of algae and scales.
It’s highly resistant to scratches & abrasion.
