durable water repellency technology
Surface tension (or surface energy) of a
substance dictates how a surface will
interact with its surroundings.The balance
in between cohesive and adhesive forces
will define hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity,
oleophobicity or oleophobicity tendency.
The lower the surface free energy, the higher
will be the potential for repellency.
DEVAN REPEL ONE owers the surface
energy to a level capable of repelling water
and waterborne systems.
