ICL Phosphate Specialty - HALOX® Company Logo
HALOX® 515 is a liquid organic corrosion inhibitor for high-gloss (direct-to-metal) coating systems and will provide cost-effective flash rust protection and long-term corrosion protection when used as recommended. HALOX® 515 is also effective for thin film applications (<2 mils). HALOX® 515 is heavy metal-free, nitrite-free, and contains no chromates or phosphates. Testing with HALOX® 515 has shown improved adhesion at the scribe and good humidity resistance. Testing has also shown HALOX® 515 to be effective as a flash rust inhibitor on weld seams.

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.

Advantages

HALOX® 515 is a dual functioning liquid flash rust and corrosion inhibitor for water-based coatings.

Technical Details & Test Data

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.
