Cor-Pro Systems provides the top-of-the-line anti-corrosion protective coatings in Houston, Texas and nearby Gulf Coast areas.
Corrosion comes in different forms; one more degradative than the other. Whatever the case, the corrosion problem should be addressed before it becomes irreparable.
The best way to prevent equipment degradation is with quality anti-corrosion protective coatings.
Companies whose operations require the use of critical metal equipment depend on experts to keep the machineries free from the damaging effects of corrosion, or protected, at the very least.
The most common practice is to apply anti-corrosion protective coatings on the affected equipment or machines. Since there are different types of corrosion, there are also different coatings, and it’s important to use the appropriate ones.
Commonly used techniques include the use of corrosion inhibitors, which are chemicals that interrupt the corrosion process by creating a protective film around the metal surface.
This strengthens the resistance of the metal from the chemical reaction that accelerates the corrosion process.
Another method is the use of anti-corrosion protective coatings. These coatings usually come in the form of paint or organic coatings that provide protection from corrosion, specifically caused by environmental gases.
Types Of Anti-Corrosion Protective Coatings
There are several types of anti-corrosion protective coatings based on the kind of polymer applied.
Some of these important coatings are listed below:
- Epoxy ester coatings that promote cross-link oxidation
- Acrylic and epoxy polymer radiation curable coatings
- Urethane coatings
- Zinc primers
- Enamels
- High-temperature resistant coatings (e.g. phenolic, PTFE)
- Water-soluble coatings
- Thermal-cured thin films
- Wear-resistant coatings
These are just some of the coatings that are used to fight corrosion. Many of them provide an added layer of protection as they also have non-stick and abrasion resistance properties. In some cases, they also give aesthetic finishes.
The decision on which coating to use is critical and companies should seek the help of anti-corrosion experts like Cor-Pro systems to ensure ultimate protection from corrosion.
The coatings used are inspected for quality and ensures they conform to high standards. Doing so guarantees the best results.
