Fluoropolymers are typically used as stain and water repellents to protect various hard surfaces. Fluoropolymers can create a very low surface energy on different surfaces, much lower than water and typical household stains, including oils and acids. Fluoropolymers create barriers that are difficult to penetrate, creating a superb surface sealant.

Due to increased regulations regarding fluoropolymers, as they fall under the category of PFAs (forever chemicals), it is imperative to find PFAs-free solutions for various applications. This paper will discuss a waterborne alternative to fluoropolymers used in hard surface sealers for water and stain repellency. Learn more by reading the full document created by our team.
