Caitian is one of the rare firms in the global enamel market that can produce its own raw materials, thus ensuring consistency in quality, while also quickly adapting to newly emerging furnace systems.
Caitian supplies coatings to prominent automotive OEM and replacement parts manufacturers, safeguarding the integrity of the glass. The absorption of ultraviolet (UV) rays from sunlight exposure may lead to the deterioration or fracturing of the components securing your windows and lighting elements.
Additionally, we provide coatings engineered to meet both decorative and functional criteria, including aspects such as reflectivity and defrosting. We have played a pivotal role in the advancement of specialized dark lines and conductive silver pastes tailored for automotive glass, in response to evolving market demands driven, for instance, by contemporary vehicle designs and intricate glass configurations, as well as efforts toward fuel efficiency, lightweighting, and adherence to end-of-life vehicle regulations.
Caitian’s automotive-focused glass enamels are available in various formulations to meet specific customer process requisites and offer:
Effective opacity for concealing Optimal resistance to chemical factors and glass expansion characteristics (COE)
Shielding for adhesives against the degrading effects of UV radiation.”
We offer a diverse range of ceramic automotive glass colors and black obscuration enamel products that are specially formulated to meet the rigorous demands of the automotive industry. Our products not only meet the industry’s decorative requirements, but also protect against the degradation and delamination of vehicle glass adhesive caused by UV light radiation, as specified by automotive OEM and after-market industry standards.
Our automotive glass enamels are designed specifically for press bending, offering superior performance for the fast-firing process. With press bending becoming increasingly popular in laminated glass and tempered glass manufacturing, we provide enamels with low-to-high acid resistance, excellent breaking strength, rapid maturation, and outstanding anti-stick properties that are essential for successful press bending.
Tailored to meet essential requirements, our heavy metal-free enamels for automotive glass sag bending processing offer a broad firing range, superior gloss, optimal opacity, and the deepest possible shade of black.
We offer an extensive selection of ceramic automotive glass colors and black obscuration enamel products that are specifically formulated to meet both decorative specifications and the industry’s requirements for preventing the degradation and delamination of vehicle glass adhesive due to UV light radiation, as mandated by automotive OEM and after-market industry specifications.
Our specialized silver pastes are designed for application on laminated and tempered automotive glass. Tailored for the exacting requirements of automotive backlight specifications, our silver pastes bring about a decrease in line widths to 147µ, improve enamel firing speeds, and avert bus bar under-firing.
