SilFORT™ Hardcoats for Automotive

Momentive’s SilFORT hardcoats enable automobile manufacturers to select engineered plastics or metallic parts for use in a number of demanding applications. Our hardcoat portfolio is approved by regulatory authorities, such as AMECA and ECE, and specified for use by OEM’s globally.
For engineered plastics, such as polycarbonate (PC) or PMMA, SilFORT hardcoats improve the durability and performance of plastics by helping them maintain their color, gloss, light transmission and physical properties, while enhancing weatherability, cleanability and resistance to abrasion, chemicals and solvents.
