This tester provides multifunction nano and micro/ macro modules on a single platform. Both modules include scratch tester, hardness tester and wear tester modes, providing a wide and user-friendly range of testing.
Leading global coatings provider Hempel was appointed to provide innovative tough coating solutions against corrosion to the Queensferry Crossing. Located on the busy Forth Estuary near Edinburgh, on the east coast of Scotland, it spans an impressive 2.7 kilometers, making it the longest three-tower cable-stayed bridge in the world.
This article will be primarily focused on traditional barrier protection and how breakthroughs in formulation and manufacturing techniques have led to advances in edge corrosion protection.
An innovative primer that stops corrosion for decades has caught the attention of multinational paint companies. Unlike traditional primers that sit on the surface of steel, this primer chemically bonds with steel to form an alloy layer that corrosion cannot penetrate.]
A multifaceted exploratory study was conducted on the Resistance to Iron Chloride Test specified in AMS-C-27725 to better understand the rationale of this corrosion acceleration test required for the integral fuel tank coating systems.
This article reports on our evaluation of AMPARMOR™ 2000, an additive designed to impart self-healing functionality to fusion-bonded epoxy (FBE) and epoxy powder primer coatings, and AMPARMOR 3000, designed as an option for nonepoxy coatings.
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.
