ARC Technical Data Sheet
Kynar Aquatec® ARC latex is a hybrid dispersion containing, on polymer solids, 70% (wt) Kynar® PVDF resin, and 30% (wt) proprietary acrylic resin, produced without any fluorinated surfactants or alkylphenol ethoxylate (APEO). After more than 14 years of south Florida exposure, waterborne coatings based on Kynar Aquatec® ARC latex confirm weathering performance comparable to 70% Kynar 500® PVDF finishes, similar to those used in OEM baked metal finishes. Kynar Aquatec® ARC is highly reccomended for applications of field applied topcoats for metal roofing and façade restoration where the highest UV performance is required.
