How much material will evolve from the coating and will it hurt (affect) my process?
Our ceramic coatings are designed with minimal outgassing in mind. Thus, there is always very little material that will evolve from the coatings when they are placed into use. Generally, there is no need to pre-outgass the coatings. They are merely dried and placed into their high-temperature use. The material evolving from the coatings are gases (typically water, carbon dioxide and monoxide and [in some cases] methane or nitrogen oxides); they generally come off in a rather linear fashion from 50 C to 500 C depending on the coating. The slow evolution of the small amount of volatiles generally does not cause any problems – whether the actual use is in an air, inert, or vacuum atmosphere. The overall amount of material evolving is extremely small.
