Patinal® Cerium(III)-fluoride

Patinal® Cerium(III)-fluoride by Merck KGaA, Darmstadt Germany acts as an adhesion promoter on polymers. It is a granular evaporation material. It forms environmentally durable layers and can be used to make first surface mirrors. It is suitable for resistive coats and adhesive layers for gold, aluminum and copper in electronics.

• It can also be used in metal dielectric combinations to design neutral density filters with enhanced absorption.
• Offers corrosion protection in the automotive industry, low friction layers (razor blades) and decorative layers.
• Thin films made from Patinal® Cerium(III)-fluoride show a reflection of about 60% in the visible spectrum.
