Our Technologies

Photoactivated surface reactions

Our patented technologies use controlled photo-activation to create covalent bonds directly between coatings and difficult substrates. When a UV photon of the right wavelength reaches the surface, it activates a specific molecule in our primer or activator system, triggering an instant surface reaction that forms a durable, covalently anchored interface. There are no complicated chemical chain reactions to manage. No sensitivity to humidity, temperature, or other environmental variables. As long as a photon of the correct wavelength reaches the surface, bonding occurs — consistently, repeatably, across a wide range of substrates. It's just physics. This makes our products both robust and remarkably simple to use. Where traditional adhesion promoters depend on delicate surface-energy matching or expensive functional oligomers, Duoprime® and our activator systems rely on well-defined photochemistry that delivers the same result every time.
