Diamon Fusion

Glass Shower Enclosures

Well known for being difficult to clean and maintain. The major cleaning product manufacturers like Proctor & Gamble and Lysol have all followed suit in bringing daily shower sprays to market. With a single application lasting for years, Diamon-Fusion® virtually eliminates the need for those daily shower sprays. With Diamon-Fusion®, all that is needed to maintain the treated glass is a splash of clean water after each shower and an occasional swipe with a body scrubber (similar to the one used with soft soap for your skin).

Sandblasted or Etched Glass

This popular application is used for two main purposes. Architects will specify sandblasted glass as a means for allowing light to come in to a room while still holding privacy. The inherent problem with this type of glass is that it stains very easily and shows fingerprints that typically cannot be removed. DFI has developed an Etched and Sandblasted Cleaner that allows us to restore most etched surfaces back to their original state prior to applying the Diamon-Fusion® process. Once Diamon-Fusion® has been applied, in many cases, fingerprints will no longer show themselves and in those cases where they do, they are now easily removed. The glass also becomes water repellant so any water that prior to treatment would have created a dark and wide stain now beads up and runs off (hydrophobic effect).

About Diamon Fusion

DFI's nanotechnology, patented in the US as Diamon-Fusion®, is an award-winning technology that uses a chemical vapor deposition process. DFI’s nanotechnology is applicable to most surfaces containing silica (silicon dioxide) such as glass, ceramic tile, porcelain, and granite. The specifically formulated vapors react with the moisture on the surface and the silica in the substrate (to be treated). DFI’s nanotechnology is generated by a two-stage chemical process:

Diamon Fusion Stage 1

The chemical reaction created in the first stage causes a “cross-linked” and “branched” silicone film to be grown from below the surface out. After converting the chlorine atoms to OH groups using additional moisture (chlorine was left at the end of the atom chains after the first stage), a second specifically formulated vapor is introduced to the surface.

Diamon Fusion Stage 2

The second stage ‘caps’ the entire chain of atoms. This unique ‘capping’ substantially increases the hydrophobicity and durability, leaving, chemically speaking, no points of attachment for contaminants and creating a truly repellant charge.

DFI’s Nano-Chemistry

The chemical reaction bonds to form an ultra-thin protective layer of optically clear durable material, a nanostructured device, making the surface significantly easier to clean and more resistant to weathering. The method is done at nano-scale levels, thus also called ‘nano-chemistry,’ which is a length scale of approximately 1-100 nanometer range( 1 nanometter is 1/1,000,000,000 meter, or 1 billionth of a meter). Nanometer dimensions are at the atomic dimension scale.

DFI’s Covalent Bond

The bond created in the patented process is a covalent bond, the strongest possible bond, in chemical terms that a hydrophobic coating can generate. A covalent bond means that the coating shares the electrons within the glass itself, thus becoming a part of the glass. Covalent Bonds are approximately 10 times stronger than hydrogen-bridge bonds, which are commonly present in most other water repellant coatings.
