    Product Highlights


    Excellent Waterproof and Breathability


    The waterproof film formed meets the application requirements of 90-160° water droplet angle, with good breathability, and does not affect the original characteristics of the substrate.


    Environmentally Friendly and Fluorine-Free


    Contains no organic fluorine components, no environmental risks, complies with EU standards, and fits into green production needs.


    Excellent Weather Resistance


    After 96 hours of thermal shock and salt spray tests, there were no abnormalities, indicating it can withstand complex environmental usage conditions.


    Strong Bonding and Cost-Effective


    Post-treatment, the product's pull-off force far exceeds the 500g standard, making it more competitive in price relative to fluorine-containing hydrophobic agents.


    Easy Application and Wide Adaptability


    With ultra-low viscosity and ultra-high leveling properties, it can naturally dry at room temperature, making the process simple and easy to operate.


    Product Performance Comparison


    Compared with fluorine-containing hydrophobic agents, HLD-12516 forms differentiated advantages in key performance metrics, aligning better with environmental trends and practical application needs.
