Overview
Products
Kriya Materials is THE developer and manufacturer of multi-functional coatings and masterbatches for nanocomposites. Nanotechnology is the basis of a wide range of products which are listed on this page. This core technology offers us a custom-made and application oriented development and manufacturing process.
To name some of the functionalities, we offer among other;
And combinations thereof.
Properties that are offered by these (multi-)functional coatings are intrinsic or combinable:
√ High transparent
√ Low haze
√ Scratch resistant
√ Hydrophobic
√ Overcoatable
√ Easy-to-clean/anti-fingerprint
√ Durable performance
√ Abrasion resistant
√ High hardness
√ High gloss to low gloss
√ Anti glare
√ Improved and durable adhesion
√ Low reflection
√ Tunable refractive index from 1.3 to 2.0
√ Anti reflection
All products are available PFAS free.
Kriya Materials offers any functionality; any mechanical, physical or optical property, just imagine multi-functionality!
Our coating technology is developed for application on plastics such as TAC, PET, PMMA and PC but don’t exclude other plastics such as PP, ABS, TPU, TPI glass and metallized surfaces. Our products can be adapted and fine-tuned to get the desired set of functionalities and properties to your substrate.
Application method
Our coatings require a homogeneous deposition. Therefore application techniques such as gravure, slot die, spin, flow and other typical roll-to-roll and sheet to sheet processing methods are suitable. Please contact us for a personal advise and recommendation.
Curing technology
For plastics, the coating technology is, if not 100% solids, requiring a drying treatment, and in some cases followed by a UV cure step.
The coating technology for glass is based on sol-gel chemistry. Functionalities such as anti-static, anti-reflection, high refractive index, low refractive index, anti-glare and Near Infrared absorbing are possible but will always need a heat treatment in order to obtain the best in class performance.
Since our focus is to minimize resources and materials, our coatings are multi functional, avoiding processing steps and typically are being applied in thicknesses ranging from hundred nanometers to a few micrometers maximum, leveraging the nano embedded technology.

Masterbatches
Based on our core technology, we have developed masterbatches which will contribute in lowering the energy cost and CO₂ footprint of your building, car and greenhouses as an example by blocking the solar heat radiation while maintaining visible light transmittance and aesthetics as much as possible.
This Advanced master batch technology is a drop in solution in the production of standard PVB films, PET, PMMA, TPU and EVA. In case there is an interest for a masterbatch suitable for another polymer then please contact us.
