In a precision workshop of a southern electronics factory, technician Li observed a striking contrast: after three years of service, equipment shells in Zone A with conventional coating showed oil penetration and oxidation stains, while those in Zone B treated with Chemi Tech's water-based repellent remained pristine. This comparison experiment is rewriting industrial protection history.
Modern manufacturing faces more complex protection demands: resisting long-term erosion from coolants/lubricants while preventing rust in humid environments. Traditional solvent-based repellents have oil resistance but emit VOCs; ordinary water-based versions struggle against oil penetration. This dilemma keeps maintenance costs high.
A new energy vehicle battery plant's case is telling: due to coating failure, their production line required four annual shutdowns, with single-event losses exceeding $300,000. "We need solutions that are both eco-friendly and high-performance, not compromises," stressed their equipment director.
Inspired by lotus leaves' hydrophobicity and fish scales' oleophobicity, Chemi Tech developed a water-based repellent with "dual-network structure." This innovation forms a nano-scale 3D protective layer: tightly arranged hydrophobic molecules (110° contact angle) on top, with oil-repellent groups chemically anchored to substrates.
Tests at a southern port machinery factory showed: key components of gantry cranes treated with Chemi Tech's repellent maintained over 98% surface integrity after 18 months of salt spray and hydraulic oil exposure. "It's like giving steel equipment an 'invisible protective suit'," remarked field engineers.
In Chemi Tech's simulation lab, the 7th-gen product undergoes extreme testing: metal samples immersed in 85°C engine oil for 500 hours emerge completely dry. The technical director pointed to molecular structure diagrams: "We aim not to make the best repellent, but to redefine protection standards."
