Siemtcoat® SF180MR
A Solventless Silicone Release Coating for High Speed Coating Machine
Siemtcoat® SF180MR is a solventless silicone release coating, designed for high-speed application on diverse substrates like Glassine, PEK, and CCK. It excels with rapid coating speeds, low misting, and is optimized for 5-roll or 6-roll coating machines. This eco-friendly product ensures even coating, boosts efficiency, minimizes waste, making it perfect for large-scale, sustainable production
General
A three-component solventless system, specially designed for Glassine, PEK, CCK, ect. substrate coatings.
We recommend the following formulas:
Siemtcoat® SF180MR-Base Polymer
Siemtcoat® 8982-Crosslinker
Siemtcoat® 5000-Catalyst
The dosage of different component should be adjusted base on different process condition and application. After mixed components even, the coating on the substrate surface to curing and achieved the target release profile.
Advantages :
Low misting with high speed
Fast curing with good curing property, such as low silicone migration.
Flatter release profle at different peeling speed
Long bath life and good anchorage performance with additives
Suitable for in-line and off-line coating
Suitable for various adhesive systems
Applications :
Self-adhesive labels
Release paper and tapes

Processing
When applying Siemtcoat® SF180MR into the Siemtcoat system, please strictly adhere to the following mixing procedure:
(Attention: Do not mix the crosslinker and catalyst directly, as a dramatic reaction will occur.)
For detailed formulation guidance, feel free to contact us.
Bath life
The bath life of all Siemtcoat systems depends on formulation, equipment, mixing process, temperature, and environment. Siemtcoat® SF180MR only does not alter its original bath life, typically lasting about 5 hours at 40℃.
Release force
Release force performance depends on multiple factors.
We measure release force using different substrates and adhesives to define its characteristics. While the standard release force measure could use standard tape to measure.
Typical release force performance:
Tesa Tape 7475 (23℃): 5 to 20 g/25mm (0.3 m/min peeling speed)
Curing
The curing results of the Siemtcoat system depend primarily on the formulation, substrate quality, curing temperature, and oven efficiency. We obtained the following results:
|
Temperature |
Substrate |
Curing time |
|
120℃ |
Glassine |
<14 s |
|
PEK |
<12 s |
(Curing time is defined as the minimum curing duration without any smear, rub-off, or migration of the release coating layer.)

SF300 vs SF180MR
With the improvement of the coating efficiency by the market, should consider the low misting and physical properties more comprehensively. While the traditional SF300 silicone release coating is suitable for the coating speed below 350m/min. So the SF180MR will be a better choice. The below properties of SF300 vs SF180MR is for your reference.
| Basic Properties | ||
| Item | SF300 | SF180MR |
| Lowest Curing Temperature, 4s | 170℃ | 160℃ |
| Subsequent Adhesion(%,Nitto 31B) | 92.5 | 93.8 |
| RF-RT(Tesa7475, g/in) | 7.2 | 9.0 |
| RF-70(Tesa7475, g/in) | 17.1 | 19.7 |
