Momentive's SilFORT™ UV Cured Hardcoats

Momentive’s UV cured SilFORT hardcoats offer a durable, high gloss finish and a long-lasting protective surface to a variety of plastic substrates, including polycarbonate and PMMA. Our SilFORT hardcoats, formulated without PFAS, help enable the use of plastic without sacrificing durability, aesthetics or performance. Our hardcoats are cured by UV light, and crosslinking is initiated by a photochemical reaction. These features allow coated parts to cure more quickly and at lower temperatures, while still receiving the needed protection for a variety of applications.
