AFA: the new protective coating for LEDs from Electrolube

AFA is an optically clear protective coating, ideally suited as a protective coating for LEDs or in other industrial applications. AFA retains its optical clarity even under the influence of UV radiation and causes only a minimal increase in the color temperature of the coated LEDs. In addition, AFA offers excellent protection in humid environments and is flexible over a wide operating temperature range.

Advantages of AFA

  • AFA shows a smaller color temperature shift than other protective coatings when used on LEDs, directly after application and during use over a longer period of time.
  • AFA is free of aromatics. The solvent contained in AFA has a lower hazard classification, which is positive for the user.
  • AFA is approved as flame-retardant according to UL 94 V-0.
  • AFA has a higher moisture resistance than other protective coatings.
  • AFA is available in many ready-to-use variants, so that a suitable variant is available for every application method.
  • AFA has a shorter drying time and thus ensures faster processing in production and therefore shorter cycle times.

Properties

  • Impeccable clarity, ideal for LED applications
  • Excellent adhesion to all substrates
  • Wide operating temperature range
