Akron Coating and Adhesives ACA-10-102

Akron Coating and Adhesives ACA-10-102 is a waterborne, semi-gloss, black, chemically-resistant coating. A cross-linking agent must be added prior to this coating in order to achieve the desired chemical resistance. The pot life after cross-linker addition is three days. The base polymer for this application is an acrylate block copolymer. Cross-linking is via pendant carboxyl groups, which also enhances the metal adhesion.

Typical Use

ACA 10 - 102 is designed especially for resistance to exterior exposures encountered typically in automotive applications.

Coating Method

The coating may be applied by gravure, wire wound bar or nip fed reverse roll coater. Small parts or unique shapes may be spray, rolled, or brush coated. Additional water may be added to enhance process ability. It is essential that total coverage of the aluminum be attained to provide good chemical protection of the metal.

Clean Up

Wash the equipment with water to remove the wet adhesive. The dry coating may require a toluene wash. Toluene is a flammable solvent and must be used according to OSHA safety standards.
