Protective Coating acts as stain guard for composite wood decking.October 26, 2009 -
Designed to overcome decking materials' inherent inclination towards stain retention, API-221F one-component, water-based polymer/oligomer dispersion protects appearance and surface aesthetics of composite wood decking. It crosslinks at ambient temperature to form topical polymeric film with chemical anchors that penetrate into substrate. Resultant clear coating film resists staining from foods, wine, oil, grease, and moisture.

Advanced Polymer Inc. Introduces API-221F Protectant for Composite Wood Decking
Advanced Polymer, Inc. (Carlstadt, NJ) has introduced API-221F (advpolymer.com/docs/api221f.pdf), a one component, water-based polymer/oligomer dispersion designed to protect the appearance and surface aesthetics of composite wood decking. API-221F will crosslink at ambient temperature to form a topical polymeric film with chemical anchors that have penetrated into the substrate. The resultant clear, durable coating film resists staining from foods, wine, oil, grease and moisture.
While composite decking materials are promoted as low maintenance or no maintenance, one of the most common problems is staining from contact with food, wine, plant materials or automotive grease and oil. The degree of staining varies depending on the exact composition and color of the decking. Some staining can be removed with cleaning, but most leave some residual color. API-221F is designed to protect the decking material to overcome this deficiency.
Advanced Polymer, Inc., headquartered in Carlstadt, NJ, has been a respected provider of a variety of technically innovative specialty chemicals for almost 40 years. API works closely with customers to develop compliant materials that enhance the performance of products for a wide range of industries including paint and coatings, auto and marine care, paper and film, textile and leather, lubricants, inks, adhesives and personal care.
