NEOSEED series is a PFC-free durable water repellent. Despite being an eco-friendly product, it has a water repellent function comparable to that of conventional fluorine-based water repellents.
Mechanism of NEOSEED
Though the leaf of the lotus plant may seem smooth at a glance, you will find the surface is covered with microscopic projections.
Air becomes trapped in the spaces between the projections, forming an air layer that functions to enhance the surface tension of water coming into contact with it. Like magic, the water forms into round droplets that roll smoothly off the leaf. NEOSEED series reproduces this principle on fabric.
