PLV2020 can be used in a variety of applications to quickly and easily coat surfaces and equipment subjected to corrosive fluids, acidic vapors or high temperatures.

BENSALEM, Pa., March 1, 2018 – Pelseal Technologies, LLC (www.Pelseal.com), a manufacturer of more than 800 high-performance liquid fluoroelastomer coatings, adhesives, sealants and caulks, has introduced PLV2020, a Viton™-based formulation in an aerosol spray can. The new product provides superior performance characteristics compared to other aerosol spray coatings.

“You no longer have to use a brush to achieve the chemical resistance and broad temperature range of a Viton™ fluoroelastomer,” said Bill Ross, president of Pelseal Technologies. “PLV2020 provides unsurpassed ease of use while delivering all the performance characteristics one expects from Viton™ fluoroelastomer.”

PLV2020 is a black, one-part coating available in a 12-ounce aerosol spray can, offering the convenience of a Viton™ spray. The advantages of an aerosol over typical liquid coatings include the ease and speed of application, a smoother finish with no brush streaks and no post-application brush clean-up. The aerosol does not require the mixing and measuring of a second component. After shaking the can, the aerosol is ready to use.

PLV2020 enables the quick application of a thin, chemically resistant, rubbery coating of Viton™ fluoroelastomer. It has a higher solids content compared to other aerosol coatings for better deposition and thickness, so fewer coats are required. As a Viton™ formulation, PLV2020 provides resistance to corrosive liquids including sulfuric, nitric and hydrochloric acids; oil and fuel; hydrocarbons and chlorinated solvents. It exhibits robust performance in a broad temperature range of -40F degrees to +400F degrees. 

PLV2020 can be employed in a wide variety of industrial applications including:

• Protective coating for equipment subjected to corrosive fluids and vapors
• Protective coating for metal substrates subjected to high temperature airflow and chemical vapors
• Protective, flexible adhesive for bonding Viton™ components (O-rings, gaskets, bumpers, seals, etc.) to metal and other substrates
• Flexible adhesive for splicing fluoroelastomer O-rings and cord stock
• Coating used in jet engine maintenance and other aerospace applications where jet fuel and hydraulic fluids are present
• Acid-resistant coatings for industrial pumps and equipment housings
• Touch-up paint for molded fluoroelastomer shapes and components with blemishes, nicks or gouges from field service
• Top-coat for elastomers to improve their chemical resistance (e.g., poly-urethane, poly-sulfide, nitrile, neoprene, butyl, natural, SBR, polyurethane)
