C1-C5 are classifications used to describe the level of corrosion resistance required for aggressive environments and applications. The company's latest test results prove that its sustainable corrosion inhibitors can reach C5 levels of heavy metal and chromate-free corrosion protection in coatings.
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.
Following the phasing out of hexavalent chromium, there was a clear need for innovation in order to offer the same level of protection against corrosion. With new micro-reservoir technology, this company is able to incorporate chemicals that were previously incompatible with coatings and offer a smart inhibitor that delivers on price and performance.
