Zeolite Coating System for Corrosion Control to Eliminate Hexavalent Chromium from DoD Applications

摘要

The overall objective of the proposed project is to develop a new environmentally friendly zeolite coating system for corrosion control to eliminate hexavalent chromium in DoD applications without sacrificing performance. The specific goals of the project are as follows. 1) Development of zeolite coatings (see Tasks for details). 2) Demonstrate compatibility with current Military water-dispersible polyurethane topcoats. 3) Basic characterization and standard testing of zeolite and zeolite/topcoat systems and provide performance benchmarking with current chromium-containing DoD coating systems. 4) Fast technology transition.
