Anti-corrosion Powder Paint

Introduction

Use of powder paint as an alternative for liquid paint has created a great evolution in the color quality. Liquid paints create environmental pollution because of possessing evaporative chemical solvents during drying, and they are harmful for human health. The powder paint entered to the market for the first time in 1962. Keeping of 100% solid state, in addition to environmental pollution prevention, has offered incomparable quality against liquid paints to the industry. Powder paints are now taken 15% of the market share and compete with traditional liquid paints. Due to environmental laws on pollution and waste removal, replacement of liquid paints with powder paints becomes more important every day.

Introduction

In advanced technological era corrosion is still considered a major problem because it is the main cause of industrial failures and loss of billions of dollars annually for preventive maintenance and restoration of metal substrates. Corrosion resistant paints protect metal components against degradation due to the moisture, salt spray, oxidation or exposure to a variety of industrial chemicals. Anti-corrosion coating allows for added protection of metal surfaces and acts as a barrier to inhibit the contact between chemical compounds or corrosive materials. Addition of nanoparticles as fillers to the polymeric paints not only increases their efficiency in terms of corrosion resistance but also improves their mechanical properties.

Introduction

The rusting of metal surfaces reduces the longevity of metal equipment and the damage becomes far greater in humid environments. Larma Rust Converter is a coating applied on rusted surfaces and by creating a new layer, prevents the advancement of rusting while at the same time using the rust of the metal as a member of the structure. In 2 to 4 hours after applying this coating on the surface, alongside protecting the structure from rusting, it prevents the development of corrosion and active nanoparticles in the formulated structure; creating a strong anti-corrosive surface. This type of liquid coating, which is water-based (water solvent for dilution), is designed and presented for the coating and painting of rusted surfaces. After drying, the color of this coating appears burnt brown to black.
