Application
In the production of sanitary pads, self-adhesive strips are attached to the bottom of the panty liner in order to prevent slipping and ensure maximum comfort.
Requirements
Adhesion to the vacuum rolls is a frequent occurrence when processing the sticky strips.
Coating
The favorable nonstick properties of TempCoat® and PlasmaCoat®, combined with a wear-resistant smooth surface, ensure uninterrupted production.
Benefits
Reduces downtime and saves time spent cleaning.
TempCoat®
- Wear resistant slide coatings with nonstick properties
TempCoat
® is a fluoropolymer coating characterized by outstanding nonstick and sliding properties.
Additional reinforcement layers increase the wear resistance in combination with sliding properties. TempCoat® surface treatments can be applied on aluminum, steel, stainless steel, copper, ceramics and even plastics.

PlasmaCoat®
- Wear-resistant combination coatings
PlasmaCoat
® combines the outstanding hardness and wear resistance of thermally sprayed metal coatings with the nonstick and sliding properties of polymers and fluoropolymers.
PlasmaCoat® combination coatings also enable excellent traction properties with various surface roughnesses and profiles. The reinforcement layer can be sprayed with metal or ceramic materials for high wear resistance.
