Cortec® Corporation is proud to be named a BioPreferred® Program Champion in recognition of its involvement in the USDA BioPreferred Program, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.
Researchers at the Saint Petersburg Electrotechnical University, LETI, have developed a “digital twin” that will form the basis for creating energy-efficient equipment for applying protective coatings to metal structures of any size using strong electromagnetic fields.
Co-blending Intelli-ion anti-corrosives with phosphate-based systems offers a step-change alternative that enhances current coating systems without changes to the manufacturing process.
If left untreated, metal corrosion can affect a business from both economic and structural integrity standpoints. Sarah Medeiros, Corrosion Engineer at SIFCO ASC, discusses developments in R&D to help slow down the corrosion process.
Conversion coatings imbue metals with special properties. These treatments are generally straightforward and open up a plethora of new applications. However, because of the chemical nature of the process, there are caveats to conversion coating that are important to understand.
