Arccoil PL 610 PVC Plastisol Coil Coating

A PVC plastisol applied at 100 to 200 microns over a plastisol-specific adhesive primer, gelled and fused in the oven and embossed in line to a leather grain or similar texture. The thick, plasticised film carries the impact and abrasion resistance that industrial roofing, cladding and deep profiles need.

1. Product description

A PVC plastisol applied at one hundred to two hundred microns over a plastisol-specific adhesive primer, gelled and fused in the oven and embossed in line to a leather grain or similar texture. The thick, plasticised film carries the impact and abrasion resistance industrial roofing, cladding and deep profiles need, and it takes bends that would crack a thin crosslinked film. Heat and ultraviolet resistance sit below Arccoil SP and Arccoil PV, so cut edges need protecting and fully exposed service in hot, high ultraviolet locations should be specified against outdoor data rather than assumed.

2. Features

  • 100 to 200 micron fused film, embossed in line
  • Impact and abrasion resistance for industrial roofing and deep profiles
  • Plasticised rather than crosslinked; takes bends that would crack a thin crosslinked film
  • No solvent to flash off, so applied and fused thickness are effectively the same
  • Heat and ultraviolet resistance below Arccoil SP and Arccoil PV; cut edges need protecting

3. Recommended uses

Industrial roofing, cladding and deep profiles that need impact and abrasion resistance. Fully exposed service in hot, high ultraviolet locations is specified against outdoor data rather than assumed.

Substrates. Hot-dip galvanised steel and zinc-aluminium alloy coated steel strip, over a plastisol-specific adhesive primer.

Supply formPVC plastisol for roll coating, with no solvent to flash offCustomer or supplier protocol

Peak metal temperature, gel and fusion204 to 232 degrees CelsiusStrip-attached thermocouple or peak metal temperature recorder read on the line; a line measurement, as there is no dedicated published test standard

Reverse impact, no cracking or adhesion loss9 to 18 joules on 0.5 mm strip, set against the substrate thickness and the forming scheduleEN 13523-5, ASTM D2794
Adhesion after indentation, cupping testNo removal of the film from the deformed areaEN 13523-6
Fusion checkSolvent rub and pencil hardness do not apply to a plasticised film; judge fusion by the reverse impact, T-bend and cupping results above and by the hardness and abrasion checks agreed for the order, using a hardness method suited to a plasticised filmCustomer or supplier protocol
Neutral salt spray resistance, finished system500 to 1000 hours with creep from the scribe not more than 2 mm and no field blistering, set by the system chemistry and film buildISO 9227, ASTM B117, EN 13523-8

5. Application

ParameterGuidance
Application methodRoll coating on a continuous coil coating line with in-line embossing
Surface preparationHot-dip galvanised or zinc-aluminium alloy coated steel strip, cleaned, rinsed, chemically pretreated and dried, then primed with a plastisol-specific adhesive primer
Applied film100 to 200 microns fused; applied and fused thickness are effectively the same
Gel and fusion204 to 232 degrees Celsius peak metal temperature
EmbossingEmbossed in line while the film is hot and before quenching, then cooled and recoiled
Process controlUnder-fusion, not under-cure, is the failure mode to watch; it shows as a soft, easily marked film
After fabricationProtect cut edges

Process. Roll coated over primer to a fused film thickness of one hundred to two hundred microns, gelled and fused at a peak metal temperature of 204 to 232 degrees Celsius, embossed in line while the film is hot and before quenching, then cooled and recoiled. The plastisol carries no solvent to flash off, so applied and fused thickness are effectively the same and under-fusion, not under-cure, is the failure mode to watch.

6. Storage and handling

Store in the original, tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, covered area away from direct sunlight and heat, and stir to a uniform consistency before use. Shelf life is stated on the label and Certificate of Analysis. Handle and use the product in line with its Safety Data Sheet.

7. Safety and regulatory information

Read the Safety Data Sheet before use. Safety Data Sheets and regulatory declarations are issued by our technical centre against the product and batch supplied, so they are sent on request rather than published. Request a Safety Data Sheet or declaration.
