The manufacturing and construction industry has to deal with issues of corrosion often on a routine basis. For businesses in these industries, it is important to have the necessary solutions in place to deal with corrosion in order to ensure the necessary service life of critical equipment and machine components.
The Benefits of Corrosion Resistant Coating
Corrosion is caused by various outside factors, including oxidation, UV rays, normal wear and tear and moisture. This results in the degradation of the metal material that comprises machines and pieces of equipment. The application of corrosion resistance coating helps provide resistance to abrasions and solvents. It can also add lubrication and significant longevity to various parts.
Applications
One sector in which corrosion resistant coatings can be applied is for diagnostic and laboratory instruments. These and other types of equipment that are subjected to various forms of corrosive scenarios can benefit from the protection afforded by these coatings. In the construction and industrial sectors, there are a wide array of situations that call for corrosive protection, including when chemicals and/or water and moisture are in continual contact with machine parts.
Additional specific industries that require coatings that prevent corrosion of equipment, include food processing, aerospace, local municipalities, commercial baking and many others.
In addition, these coatings can be applied wherever electro-static, hot-flocking, fluidized bed and other types of applications are needed. It is important that the provider of corrosion resistant coating products be on the cutting edge of technology in the corrosion resistant industry. The most advanced solutions will provide the best results for your organization and its production, maintenance or manufacturing processes.
Products
The various types of anti-corrosive coatings available include epoxy, Rislan ® Nylon 11, KF Polymer, Plascoat and Halar. Each of these coatings has its own characteristics, capabilities and suitability for specific applications.
The ultimate goal with using high quality corrosion resistance and powder coatings is to minimize maintenance and cleaning periods, lower overall costs connected with purchasing exotic materials and protecting your equipment for the deterioration.
