5-S BASEÔ Sol-gel Thin-film Coating


5-S BASE Sol-gel on  Black Crystal Surface

5-S BASEÔ Sol-gel Coating is a thin-film,  silicone based,  polymeric coating specially designed to protect sensitive surfaces from damage.  5-S BASEÔ is capable of withstanding heat loads up to 325C with little or no thermal breakdown.  5-S BASEÔ is commonly used in applications which require the following properties:  transparent infrared reflection,  high solar spectrum absorptance,  low thermal emissivity,  encapsulation coating,  moderate to high heat load capacity,  controlled porosity,  surface protection,  anti-corrosion and dielectric applications.  Other applications for this coating are continually investigated.
Some very interesting applications which are currently being investigated are as follows: 
Doped 5-S BASEÔ films for aerogel fabrication,  doped 5-S BASEÔ conductive films,  doped 5-S BASEÔ for luminescent, photochromic, and photoelectric films,  semiconductor-doped sol-gel optics,  and doped 5-S BASEÔ for ferromagnetic films.
