Diamond Black Zircotec for Lamborghini Reventon

Zircotec - leading automotive coating specialist has been selected by Automobili Lamborghini for supplying an all-new thermal barrier for the one million Euro Reventon auto. The plasma-sprayed Diamond Black coating by Zircotec is applied to the exhaust, inhibiting heat transfer from tailpipe protecting heat sensitive pieces from damage.
“Lamborghini needed a durable solution that protected the composite bodywork and components at the rear of the car,” says Peter Whyman - Zircotec’s sales manager. “Paint finishes were unable to meet the stringent quality and durability requirements set by Lamborghini. Our coating is plasma-sprayed, in effect welding it to the base material, making it more resilient during heat cycling, life testing and abrasion tests.
Together with the new black finish, Zircotec was able to deliver not only a highly durable coating but one that satisfied the requirements of Lamborghini’s Styling Department”. “The Zircotec coating was the only coating that satisfied all our requirements,” adds Luca Meschiari, the Head of Exhausts at Lamborghini. “It is durable and offers significantly better performance than any other solution we have seen.”
Lamborghini`s the first application for Diamond Black surface, for which the patent has been applied for. “Up until now, black was only available using high temperature paints,” adds Whyman. “Only using paint is less durable and is therefore not appropriate for OEM applications. We developed this finish as part of an increasing range of individual coatings that can be adjusted to the application and customer requirements. It provides an extremely hard and durable surface that is highly resistant to vibration, mechanical damage and thermal shock.”
“The technology allows OEMs to quickly resolve heat management, even on existing platforms.”
