An innovative primer that it is claimed stops corrosion for decades has caught the attention of multinational paint companies, several of which are engaged in discussions of exclusivity in various regions of the world. Read the full article on pages 33 & 34.
Anti-corrosion coatings have one job: to protect surfaces from corrosion. Yet when certain chemicals cause coatings to deteriorate, their ability to do that job is compromised. What exactly happens at the chemical level to cause these failures? How does this affect the lifespan of typical coatings? And what can we…
A new primer can assist with corrosion prevention in the industrial, marine and heavy equipment sectors, and its creator is marketing it to paint companies as a potential addition to their product lines. Read the full article here.
Over the past few decades, great strides have been made in developing environmentally-friendly coatings. Some of these innovations were made in order to comply with new government regulations, but many of them were driven by the market. More consumers have taken an active interest in sustainable products that are more…

Watch the video below or continue to the transcript below Video Transcript A Corrosion-Resistant Coating EonCoat is a new material science and a completely different way to protect steel against corrosion. We call it a corrosion-resistant coating, but the truth is, because it alloys the top layer of steel, it’s…
Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is a serious concern for many of your industrial customers. After all, it can cost them a great deal of time and money when corrosion affects their assets. While they may accept that a certain amount of corrosion is inevitable, you can exceed their expectations by…
With the currently rising cost of steel in the U.S., replacing this material has become a pricey endeavor for domestic organizations. As steel prices skyrocket, it becomes more important than ever to preserve the integrity of steel and employ corrosion prevention methods to keep steel purchasing to a minimum. Read…
Corrosion takes many different forms. Some types of corrosion, such as pitting or crevice corrosion, are easily identifiable by visual inspection. Others, like cavitation or exfoliation, may need an additional examination to identify. But there are three types of corrosion, each a form of environmental cracking, that can only be…
Few destructive forces have plagued humanity with such determination and vigor as corrosion. The word corrosion is derived from the Latin term “corrodere”, which, when translated literally, means to “gnaw through.” Since the dawn of our modern age, mankind has struggled to find ways to fight against this process. But…
