Release coatings are used to prevent adhesion between two surfaces and thus find widespread application in labels, tapes, and other stationery items. Release coatings are silicone based coatings consisting of one polymer, which is polymerized by a cross linking agent either thermally or under UV light. Release coatings are extensively used to prevent adhesion between surfaces and thereby help in minimizing material loss. The advantages of release coatings such as high tensile strength and excellent tear strength properties make them suitable to be used in various applications. Release coatings are extensively used in applications such as stickers, labels, tapes, hygiene products, medical, food, and beverage, and packaging, among others.
