It exhibits extremely high temperature resistance, excellent adhesion, and very high chemical resistance and mechanical strength. The VOC free formulation allows metal coatings to withstand long term temperatures up to 370°C.
ProHere is Michelman’s line of water-based polymer dispersions and emulsions developed specifically for use in metal coatings. Available grades include polymer resins that serve as organic binders in coating formulations; lubricants; and anti-scratch additives for metal processing and in-use lubricants.
ProHere A, S, I, E and U-range grades provide corrosion protection, chemical resistance, adhesion, and mechanical strength for a wide set of processing conditions and metallic substrates.
Michelman’s ProHere L-range solutions are water-based lubricants and surface modifiers used as coating additives to produce lubricity, slip and torque/ tension control and scratch resistance. Grades are available to produce a matting effect on surface optics.
