Protective UV
Reflective Paint

Back to UV Curable Coatings

Q:  We are looking for reflective UV protecting paint to coat nylon or polyester fabric to be used as a shade for windows.  Can you recommend the type of paint, method of application and vendors that manufacture this type of paint?

A:  I can remember years ago formulating a window shade coating using a vinyl resin.  We were not concerned with UV properties at the time.

Today, however, I would suggest using a butyrate resin and incorporate UV absorbing surfactants.  To get started, check the web site at Tennessee Eastman.
