About Kynar 500 FSF Surface-Coating Resin

Kynar 500 FSF surface-coating resin is a PVDF-based resin manufactured free of fluorosurfactants and is available in a variety of profiles. Kynar 500 FSF is a popular choice for residential, commercial, and industrial roofing projects. 


Kynar 500 FSF is created using a patented fluorosurfactant-free process and is both color and fade resistant. Kynar 500 FSF provides unparalleled protection against nature’s harshest weather, which can result in gloss adhesion, chalking, and discoloration when lower-quality surface-coating products are used on exterior structural surfaces.

Key Features of Kynar 500 FSF

Worldwide Recognition

Kynar 500 FSF is the trusted choice for residential, commercial, and industrial cool metal roofing projects across the world. With over 50 years of experience and used on projects around the world, Kynar 500 FSF has proven itself to be a high-quality and trustworthy cool metal roofing and exterior surface product.


Unparalleled Flexibility And Durability

Kynar 500 FSF provides exceptional exterior surface flexibility and durability. Kynar 500 FSF offers a variety of profile options for commercial, residential, and industrial projects and has an impressive performance life of over 25 years.


High Solar Reflectance Index

The overall coolness of a roof is known as the Solar Reflectance Index (SRI). Calculated using the solar reflectance value, thermal emittance value, and wind coefficient, the SRI effectively estimates the surface temperature of a given roofing product.


In general, roofing materials with a higher SRI value are considered the coolest choice for roofing. Kynar 500 FSF consistently achieves a solar reflectance of over 70%. When exposed to severe ultraviolet radiation, Kynar 500 FSF outperformed its competitors over a span of 25 years.


Improved Energy Efficiency

The use of Kynar 500 FSF effectively reduces energy consumption by 40% and effectively demonstrates its ability to improve the urban heat island effect, which impacts urban areas with a high concentration of asphalt and other dark absorbing surfaces that trap and reflect solar energy, resulting in a 6-12 degree temperature increase as compared to rural areas.


Superior Weatherability 

In addition to providing impressive ultraviolet protection, Kynar 500 FSF provides exceptional protection against extreme weather conditions, including excessive heat, precipitation, and pollutants. Additionally, Kynar 500 FSF surface-coating provides outstanding dirt shedding protection and mildew resistance.
