AI Technical Summary
In the traditional double-sided coated transparent back panel outer protective layer composite process, the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film material relies on Japanese companies for an unstable supply and is expensive, and the curing time is long, resulting in high production costs and low efficiency.
Fluorine-containing coatings are applied to both sides of a PET substrate film using plasma grafting technology. Gases such as carbon tetrafluoride and sulfur hexafluoride are mixed in an atmosphere such as nitrogen to form a fluorine-containing plasma grafting layer, which forms a weather-resistant and corrosion-resistant protective layer, replacing the traditional polyvinylidene fluoride film composite process.
It simplifies the production process, reduces material costs, improves adhesion and weather resistance, shortens processing time, and enhances the corrosion resistance of the transparent backing.
