Resists mold and mildew – retains color
Mold and mildew have great difficulty gaining a foothold on Kynar® PVDF coatings. Likewise, Kynar Aquatec® emulsion-based coatings tend not to support biological growth, event in harsh, humid, mildew-prone areas. This has been shown through painted panel exposure tests in Florida, case studies from around the world for materials made with Kynar® resins, and materials studies on the Kynar® resins themselves. The figure below shows panels coated with Kynar Aquatec® emulsion-based coatings. After six years of exposure to Florida sun and weather, these panels show no signs of biological growth with excellent color retention.  | | Florida exposure of Kynar Aquatec® based masstone colors |
