ECC 1000 series Stain Resistant Coatings

ECC 10000 Series Nano Coating is a fluorosilane-modified, low-surface-energy protective treatment engineered to upgrade ceramic and sanitaryware surfaces with easy-clean, stain resistance, and improved hygiene. The coating forms an ultra-thin nano-scale film that is chemically anchored to ceramic/glazed surfaces through a silane network, while fluorinated segments create a non-stick, repellent top layer.

At its core, hydrolyzable silane groups (–Si(OR)₃) hydrolyze to silanols (–Si–OH) and then condense into a crosslinked Si–O–Si structure. On ceramics, this network bonds to surface hydroxyl sites to create durable Si–O–Surface anchoring. The outward-oriented fluorosilane groups reduce surface energy, which lowers wetting by water/oils and reduces adhesion of stains such as soap scum, body oils, cosmetic marks, and hard-water residues.

Because soils do not spread or anchor strongly, cleaning becomes faster and more effective—supporting better hygiene by reducing residue build-up where microbes can thrive. The ECC 10000 Series Nano Coating is ideal for wash basins, WCs, urinals, shower-area ceramics, tiles, and other high-touch glazed ceramic fixtures, improving appearance retention and reducing maintenance effort.

General Characteristics

Synonyms

ECC 10000 Series Nano Coating / Fluorosilane Easy-Clean Coating / Anti-Stain Ceramic Topcoat / Hydrophobic-Oleophobic Ceramic Protector

Form

Clear coating (water-borne or solvent-borne variants)

Dilution

Not allowed. Ready to use.

Finish

Transparent, ultra-thin film (minimal appearance change when applied correctly)

Post heating

For longer durability requires heating at 80-100oc

Dosage / Coverage (Starting Guideline)

10–40 mL/m² (depends on glaze type/porosity and application method)

Applications (Ceramics & Sanitaryware)

Sanitaryware Easy-Clean Topcoat (Basins, WCs, Urinals)

Reduces staining from urine scale, hard water marks, soap scum, and body oils; improves hygiene and cleaning speed.

Shower-Area Ceramics & Bathroom Wall/Floor Tiles

Minimizes water spotting and grime anchoring; improves daily wipe-down performance.

Glazed Ceramic Tiles (Residential & Commercial)

Adds stain resistance in kitchens, washrooms, hospitals, hotels, and public buildings.

Architectural Ceramic Panels / Facades

Helps reduce dust/pollution particle adhesion; improves wash-down efficiency.

Ceramic Countertops & Vanity Surfaces

Improves repellence to cosmetics, oils, detergents, and light chemical splashes.

High-Touch Ceramic Fixtures

Handles, knobs, ceramic-coated fittings—reduces fingerprinting/grime build-up.

Benefits

Easy-to-Clean, Low-Scrub Surface

Dirt releases quickly; less scrubbing required.

Hygiene Advantage Through Cleaner Surfaces

Reduced residue retention supports a more hygienic surface condition and better cleanliness perception.

Hydrophobic + Oleophobic Protection

Repels both water-based and oil-based staining agents.

Reduced Soap Scum & Limescale Anchoring

Helps prevent mineral/soap films from bonding strongly to the surface.

Longer Time Between Heavy Cleaning

Surfaces stay cleaner for longer, enabling extended deep-cleaning intervals in many use cases.

Lower Cleaner Chemical Consumption

Milder cleaners and less frequent descaling can be used in many situations.

Washing Intervals (Practical Guidance)

Routine Rinse/Wipe

Daily in very high-use washrooms; every 2–3 days in normal residential use (quick wipe is usually enough).

Regular Cleaning (Mild Cleaner)

Often shifts from every 2–3 days to every 4–7 days depending on water hardness and usage.

Deep Cleaning / Descaling

Often reduced from weekly to every 2–4 weeks (highly dependent on hard-water level, soaps, and usage).

Safety and Hazards

Use PPE

Gloves + goggles; avoid skin/eye contact.

Ventilation

Especially important for solvent-borne grades and spraying.

Avoid Inhalation of Mist/Vapors

Use suitable mask/respirator during spray application.

Flammability

If solvent-borne, keep away from ignition sources; follow SDS.

Spills/Disposal

Absorb with inert material; avoid drains; dispose per local rules.

Refer to SDS

Final hazard classification, first aid, and compliance per product SDS.

Storage

Store tightly sealed in original container.

Keep in a cool, dry place away from sunlight/heat.

Protect from freezing for water-borne grades.

Follow FIFO and shelf-life on label/COA.

Avoid contamination with strong acids/alkalis (can trigger premature hydrolysis/gelation).
