Acheson Colloids Products

Friction Fighters:
EMRALON® products, with fluoropolymers as their functional pigment, are developed to lubricate lightly loaded parts and provide non-stick properties due to their extremely low static coefficient of friction.

Examples:
Rubber "O" Rings - The Emralon® coating allows the "O" ring to be easily slipped into place and to run smoothly during break-in.
Metal Shafts - Emralon® products provide a low friction surface between metal parts. Emralon® products are frequently used on carburetor shafts, printer shafts, headlight retractors, and more. They provide lubrication for the life of the parts in corrosive and solvent environments.

DAG® products are based on graphite. Dag coatings perform particularly well in slightly humid conditions or at elevated temperatures. Dag products offer good lubrication at competitive prices.

Examples:
Gaskets - In order for an automotive head gasket to adjust and not tear during assembly, the gasket stock is coated with Dag. The Dag coating also withstands engine temperatures but allows easy engine disassembly.
Anti-seize - Dag graphite coatings function well in hostile environments such as exhaust gas of automobiles or jet engines. These coatings keep coated metal parts from galling and fusing together at temperatures over 1000°F (538°C).

MOLYDAG® products are heavy duty. Based on molybdenum disulfide, Molydag products are suitable to separate yet lubricate surfaces under pressures beyond the point of plastic deformation of steel.

Examples:
Ejection Seats - The pilot may never need to use the ejection seat. But if he does, it had better work. Molydag products are designed to work every time in a variety of extreme conditions.
Emergency Door Hardware - The next time you exit a movie theater or school, you can be sure the door will open easily every time, with low pressure, when the internal components are coated with Molydag.

Coating Selection - The versatility of Achesonís dry film lubricants range provides a product for every design situation. To choose the right coating, consider a few aspects of the part to be coated and situation in which it will operate. When selecting a dry film lubricant, consider the following:
  • 1. What cure cycle will the substrate tolerate?
  • 2. What is the contact pressure?
  • 3. Are anti-stick properties or low static coefficient of friction required?
  • 4. What is the maximum service temperature?
  • 5. Is the coating required to resist gasoline, solvents, and/or chemicals?
  • 6. What wear life is required? (Is a substrate pretreatment required?)
  • 7. Is corrosion resistance important?
  • 8. Must the coating be flexible?
  • 9. Is color important?
