The Sustainable Future

Sol Gel Technology

Features
  • HALOX® Specialty Inhibitors provide formulators with additional tools to increase hydrophobicity and adhesion in challenging environments. The performance attributes of HALOX® 550 WF lead to overall improvements to barrier properties through both the formation of domains within the pores of a coating in addition to an affinity for bonding at the metal surface.
  • As defined by TSCA, these composite pigments are classified as mixtures. All components of these mixtures are listed in the TSCA Chemical Substances Inventory.
Advantages
HALOX® 550 WF is a liquid, can be post-added, maintains high gloss and improves adhesion.

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.
