In the dynamic world of metal surface coatings, tradition has long favored the use of solvent-borne paints. These paints were celebrated for their ability to provide robust barrier protection and a dazzling gloss finish. \u00a0Yet, they came with a significant drawback – the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which did no favors for the environment. As governments tightened regulations on VOC emissions, a more eco-conscious alternative emerged: waterborne polymer dispersions for anticorrosive paints, particularly for safeguarding exposed steel surfaces in the open air.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Now, let’s venture into the design of superior corrosion protection. While enhancing a binder’s barrier properties, including its resilience against water, salt, and atmospheric elements, marks a step forward, it alone cannot guarantee full corrosion protection. The remarkable improvement happens when we introduce anticorrosion inhibitors into the paint formulation, alongside a proper chemical pretreatment of the metal surface.<\/p>\n

Over the past few decades, the coating industry has undergone a seismic shift towards the development of single-layer Direct to Metal Coatings (DTM). This approach aims to trim costs while preserving efficiency and performance. Imagine applying a coating directly onto metal surfaces, without the fuss of extensive cleaning or multiple pretreatment layers.<\/p>\n

At Cromogenia<\/strong>, our mantra echoes the pursuit of sustainability and innovation. We are dedicated to creating solutions<\/strong> that blend sustainability<\/strong> and performance,<\/strong> always attuned to market demands and the aspirations of our clients. Enter UNICORR<\/strong> aim to introduce novelty <\/strong>in the landscape of waterborne binders<\/strong> for DTM paint formulations. UNICORR, a waterborne acrylic binder designed with ingenious phosphate functionality, eliminates the need for supplementary corrosion inhibitors to ensure robust corrosion protection<\/strong>. When applied under controlled conditions of temperature and humidity, UNICORR-derived films unveil remarkable resistance to corrosion. The heart of this innovation lies in the covalent bonding of phosphate groups with the hydroxyl groups on the metal’s surface, culminating in a thin and impenetrable passive iron phosphate layer that intimately bonds with the polymeric film. The result? Outstanding corrosion protection<\/strong> that can weather even the harshest corrosive conditions (up to 500 hours in a salt spray test).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Unicorr, the resistance you need, the protection you deserve:<\/strong><\/p>\n

In summary, UNICORR, designed by Cromogenia, emerges as a novelty<\/strong> in the world of waterborne anticorrosion paints, combining substrate passivation and exceptional water resistance for extended, robust protection. Say goodbye to corrosion inhibitors and hello to innovation!<\/p>\n
