Teflon™ Coatings in the Chemical Processing Industry
May 23^rd, 2017 2:00 P.M. EST
The chemical processing environment can be extremely harsh and corrosive, especially where steam is present. Many coatings help protect base metals but consistently fail at elevated temperatures over 300°F.  Teflon™ Ruby Red was formulated to handle these conditions and has been unmatched in performance since its release on the market. Learn more about the negative effects of chemical permeation on standard coatings and how Teflon™ Ruby Red combats these effects.

Substrate Preparation
June 20^th, 2017 2:00 P.M. EST
A Teflon™ industrial coating is only as good as the prepared surface it is being applied to. Good adhesion can make or break the performance of a properly baked Teflon™ coating.  The life of a coating can be directly related to the steps taken in cleaning and providing a good surface to adhere to. Find out the best substrates, proper surface preparation materials, and processes necessary to maximize adhesion results for Teflon™ coatings. 
Industrial Marketing
July 18^th, 2017 2:00 P.M. EST
A key aspect of growing any business is reaching prospects in your target markets. The Industrial Marketing webinar will give high-level view of critical elements to any industrial marketing plan: strategy, branding, inbound marketing, and outbound marketing. The marketing tools discussed have all proven to be effective for industrial coaters.
Teflon™ Coatings in the Food Processing Industry
August 22, 2017 2:00 P.M. EST
There are many manufacturing challenges in the food processing industry from packaging and material handling to food production. Teflon™ coatings offer a wide variety of FDA approved options to meet the many needs in this industry, whether it’s the repeated heat cycling and abuse of a waffle iron or the non-stick requirements for mass-produced hamburger roll trays. Learn about the many applications in this sizable industry and the Teflon ™coatings that are designed to meet the challenges they present.
Application Equipment
September 19^th, 2017 2:00 P.M. EST
“Do you have Teflon™ paint in a spray can?” is a frequent question asked by consumers. If only applying Teflon™ coating was that easy. Teflon™ coatings come in both liquid and powder formulations, and there are numerous ways to apply Teflon™ industrial coatings, but all Teflon™ coating applications require baking to work properly. If you currently apply Teflon™ industrial coatings or are interested in setting up a coating operation and want to find out the various ways to apply this amazing product, this is the webinar for you.
Coating Cost Estimation
November 28^th, 2017 2:00 P.M. EST
With over 100 different products in the Teflon™ coating line, pricing a project correctly is essential for maximizing budgets and profits. Teflon™ coatings can be applied in various thicknesses and many have different surface area coverage and application techniques. The part shape and transfer efficiency of the material also play into estimating Teflon™ coating applications. Teflon™ coatings are known for having superior coverage in contrast to the discount copies. Know the real value of Teflon™ coatings with accurate costing calculations.
Teflon™ Coatings in the Molding Industry 
December 12^th, 2017 2:00 P.M. EST
The molding industry has long relied on manually applied release agents on their rubber or plastic molds during the manufacturing process. The procedure of applying these release agents is time consuming and expensive. Teflon™ coatings offer long-term solutions as a release agent for a variety of the products used in molding. Learn how your company can save money with Teflon™ coated molds. 
Teflon™ Coatings in the Oil and Gas Industry
January 23^rd, 2017 2:00 P.M. EST
In the harsh and corrosive outdoor environment of the oil and gas industry, coatings are necessary to help protect fasteners, valves, and pipes from rust, pitting and galling. The hydrophobic and chemically resistant nature of Teflon™ fluoropolymers, coupled with corrosion inhibitors, allows it to provide the salt resistance needed in an ocean environment as well as the protection against caustic chemicals down hole in wells and piping systems. Learn about our superior Teflon™ coatings and their applications in the oil and gas industry.
