Release Coatings

Release Coatings

As a representative of Shin-Etsu Silicones, Silsource has a range of Release Coating technologies offering complete solutions for clients across North America.
Release coatings are films placed on material backings which allow an adhesive to let go easier. There is such a wide range of applications and product formulations for silicone release coatings it important to understand how these components, when designed to function together, will provide overall customer solution(s) and satisfaction.
Typically release coatings are for industries and products that require paper or film release liners such as Label stock, Medical & Hygiene, Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) Tapes, Consumer & Industrial products, or Graphics & Specialty.

Choosing the exact release coating that best suits your needs is characteristically based on key criteria such as:
  • Coating machine investment, application type and process speed
  • Environmental, Health & Safety
  • Choice of substrate or carrier material
  • End performance and desired release force
  • Preference/experience on silicone chemistry and costs
Silsource silicone release coatings are delivered in three conventional systems for performance flexibility and application-specific process conditions.
