Features & Benefits

Features

HALOX® Organic Corrosion Inhibitors are effective against flash rusting and in-can corrosion prevention, though the benefits of using these products does not end there. Our HALOX® Organic Corrosion Inhibitors are ideally suited for high gloss, thin film, and clear coat applications. They also provide superior synergy when used in combination with inorganic corrosion inhibitors in traditional coatings. To achieve desired performance of your resin system proper selection of HALOX® Inhibitors in essential.

Technical Details & Test Data

Incorporation

A pre-neutralized solution of HALOX® 350 in water should be prepared using an amine that is volatile under your curing conditions, then post-add or add to the letdown.
A neutralization example:

HALOX® 350 (30% solution) Weight
De-ionized Water 53.0
28% Ammonium Hydroxide 19.0
HALOX® 350 27.7
TOTAL 100.0

 

  • Stir slowly, adjust pH 8-9
  • In general, add the aqueous concentrate to the amine/amide part of a 2 pack epoxy or to the polyol of a 2 pack polyurethane. If possible, avoid systems with acetic acid. Use surfactant stabilized hardeners instead.
  • Check compatibility, shelf life (e.g. accelerated at high temperature), cure and pot-life, if applicable. Other formulation variables may also be optimized, for example, dispersants, surfactants, and PVC:CPVC ratio.
Factors to Consider while Creating Coatings Solutions
  • Combine the inhibitors utilize synergy of multiple mechanisms to achieve desired performance.
    • Inorganic/Flash Rust
    • Inorganic/Inorganic
    • Inorganic/Organic
  • Optimize Solubility of the inhibitor. Synergize short term and long term corrosion inhibitors based on their solubility.
  • Inhibitor Concentration avoid direct weight to weight replacements. Beneficial to optimize usage level.
  • Substrate specific corrosion inhibitor selection can be substrate dependent.
