The combination of a high-Tg, hydrophobic, high-MW alkyd with the proper surfactants and levels can produce a highly corrosion-resistant DTM alkyd emulsion when formulated with select pigment dispersants.
VpCI®-368 EVP offers protection that is much easier to handle and remove than traditional wax-based coatings commonly used in military and similar applications.
For almost 50 years, Tnemec Company Inc. has supplied coatings and linings for water storage tanks, protecting them from corrosion, ultraviolet light degradation and exterior weathering. In 2006, to celebrate water tank coating projects around the world, Tnemec created the annual Tank of the Year contest.
Greenkote PLC, a provider of high-performance anti-corrosion metal coatings headquartered in Brook Park, Ohio, announced the opening of a new facility in Shanghai that will provide Greenkote® coatings to Asia.
Through the use of designed particle morphology and process conditions a latex has been developed that can be formulated into a coating without the use of coalescing solvents that gives excellent corrosion resistance, adhesion to steel, and still is hard enough to give good block resistance and dirt pickup resistance.
The corrosion protection provided by DTM coatings has improved with advances in binder technology; however, when formulating a waterborne DTM every component of the formula contributes to the corrosion performance.
Compared to traditional corrosion resistant coatings, chemically bonded phosphate ceramics can stop corrosion, extend equipment life, and minimize costly production downtime
VCI transportation coatings have several advantages for protecting metal parts during shipment and storage. They are more powerful than ordinary coatings, tend to be environmentally friendly and low in VOCs, and are fairly easy to remove.
