Additive enhances corrosion protection of water-based coatings systems

摘要

Formulators looking to enhance the corrosion protection of increasingly popular water-based coatings systems can now use Cortec's M-120,a water-based corrosion inhibitor additive that does not contain heavy metals.M-120 can be used alone or in conjunction with other inhibitors to increase the corrosion protection abilities of both water-based and solvent-based systems.It is recommended for use in acrylic and alkyd resin systems.M-120 protects both carbon steel and aluminum.It contains contact corrosion inhibitors that eliminate in-can corrosion,inhibit flash rust,and provide long term protection to the metal substrate.The additive does not contain any heavy metals such as zinc phosphate,chromates,or barium.M-120 comes as an off-white/beige coloured paste that can be added to coatings formulations at recommended loading levels ranging from 1.0-3.0 per cent,based on total formula weight.
