Advanced Transparencies Coatings
At PPG, we offer an unparalleled range of coating systems developed through decades of aerospace research and requirement-specific applications. Our advanced vacuum and polymer coatings yield a wide range of characteristics from signature management and selective electromagnetic filtering to high-speed rain erosion resistance, precipitation static abatement, and nanotechnology insertion.
Our aircraft transparency coating systems have proven, unmatched longer life-cycle efficiencies. We design coating systems with both fundamental and advanced characteristics, and a combination of various coatings can be used to achieve performance requirements.
We’ve integrated state-of-the-art nanotechnologies and proven process methods for organic and inorganic coating systems to support the most advanced aircraft.
