The Dangers of Typical Corrosion Prevention Solutions Typical coating solutions come with risks including VOCs, HAPs, and flammability, but there are new and unique solutions hitting the market that offer great protection without the risk. Read the full article here.
Volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, are ubiquitous organic chemicals that pose a threat to human health due to their high vapor pressure at room temperature. This high vapor pressure allows molecules to evaporate or sublimate from liquids and solids into the surrounding air. VOCs are often found in nature and…
Corrosion is an ever-present threat for any industry working with steel. The most popular form of corrosion protection is barrier coatings, which involves covering steel surfaces with a layer of protective paint. For many, barrier coatings are more than the industry standard: they’re the only option. However, there’s another form…
Corrosion Protection with New Cost-Effective Coating The annual cost of corrosion is over 3% of the world’s GDP, representing $2.2 trillion in U.S. dollars, according to the World Corrosion Organization. Read the full article here.
