ReleaSys™ HT | Boron Nitride Coatings

ReleaSys™ HT is a specialized, water-based release agent specifically designed for high temperature molding operations.  This formula utilizes a proprietary boron nitride complex to achieve unmatched lubricity and mold release performance. The inert and non-wetting nature of ReleaSys™ HT makes it an excellent surface coating for molds used to produce castings of light metals such as magnesium and for coating surfaces in glass making operations. Advantages include:

  • Water-based; VOC-free formula
  • Enhanced surface adhesion and durability
  • Protects Mold and Die Surfaces
  • High Temperature Stability up to 1562°F (850°C) in air

ReleaSys™ HT | Boron Nitride Coatings

Water-based; High-Temperature Release Agent (600-1800°F)

ReleaSys™ HT is a specialized, water-based release agent specifically designed for high temperature molding operations.  This formula utilizes a proprietary boron nitride complex to achieve unmatched lubricity and mold release performance. ReleaSys™ HT boron nitride coatings prevent sticking to increase life of dies/molds, improve product surface finishes, and reduce production times. ReleaSys HT makes an excellent surface coating for molds used to produce castings of light metals such as magnesium and for coating surfaces in glass making operations. Our formulation is 100% VOC-free making it an eco-friendly and safer alternative to solvent-based alternatives. Applications include:

  • Mold Release for High Temperature and Difficult to Mold Polymers and Composites
  • Mold release for Casting Metals and Glass
  • Mold Dressing for Powder Metal Processing
  • Surface Coating for High Temperature Surface
  • Barrier Coating for Aggressive Environmental processes
  • Specialty Lubricant for Drawing and Working Metals

ReleaSys™ HT Boron Nitride Coatings – Superior Chemistry, Superior Results

Boron nitride coatings developed by proper application of ReleaSys HT are extremely durable and stable, allowing for longer operational time before re-application is necessary.  Miller-Stephenson’s proprietary boron nitride complex technology allows for greater surface adhesion, lubricity, and stability meaning operators can mold more parts without the need for constant re-application.  Moreover our boron nitride coatings exhibit minimal mold fouling and transfer, allowing expensive molds to remain in service longer with the need for expensive re-surfacing to occur. Our boron nitride coating within ReleaSys HT can inhibit corrosion and chemical attack in metal forming, glass-making and sintering processes, thereby increasing die life and improving product quality.

 Recommended Application Procedure

  1. Clean surface thoroughly. Mechanical cleaning such as bead media blasting or steel wool, followed by chemical cleaning, provides the best surface for application of Boron Nitride. Removal of all previous contaminates is critical.
  2. Lightly swirl ReleaSys™ HT, making sure to re-disperse all particles prior and during use. Mold temperature would ideally be above 180 °F prior to application. Apply approximately 8-10 inches away from surface, and apply a light coat. NOTE: Material will apply wet and transparent, but will dry to a fine-white coat.
  3. Allow to dry completely. Heat mold to operational temperatures (>500° C) to allow boron nitride to adhere to surface. Apply 1-3 coats and repeat heat cycle to maximize release performance.  If using as a dry lubricant or barrier, allow to dry and then apply 1 additional coat to guarantee uniform coverage.
