Diffusely reflecting paints including polytetrafluoroethylene and method of manufacture

摘要

A highly diffuse, reflective paint comprising an alcohol soluble binder, polytetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and an alcohol for coating a substrate and forming an optical reference with a superior Lambertian characteristic. A method for making the paint by first mixing the binder and alcohol, and thereafter by mixing in outgassed TFE. A wetting agent may be employed to aid the mixing process.
