This configuration provides unique characteristics, such as strong adhesive properties that can improve bonding to various structural materials and to coatings and surface films for increased design flexibility compared to traditional boat building and assembly methods.

The new materials also provide up to 35% lower scrap rates by enhancing coating consistency, which reduces material bridging and part defects.

Treat the film and then spray a coating onto its surface after extrusion. 2. Spraying a coating on a film’s surface requires an investment in capital equipment and use of a secondary process in a film manufacturing line. Whether a surface coating or an additive concentrate is selected, the anti-fogging system balances the differences in surface energies by increasing that of the film to meet that of the water.
