MALE NARRATOR: Now let's examine the coating's repellency. One way to measure this is by the contact angle. The greater the contact angle, the better the repellency, and the easier the surface is to clean. The low contact angle of the oil on the uncoated surface indicates it may not repel liquids and may be more susceptible to smudges, oil, and grime. Let's look at how the oil beads up on the Novec coated side. This shows a greater contact angle, demonstrating the coating's ability to add repellency. Novec coatings for easy-clean applications provide outstanding protection due to their ability to repel oil and water. This minimizes smudges and grime buildup while making surfaces easier to clean.
