Anvil 1750 High Performance
Water Borne Grip-Tite Bonding Primer |
Anvil launches new bonding primer
Anvil Paints & Coatings has introduced a new bonding primer, Anvil 1750 High Performance Water Borne Grip-Tite Bonding Primer, which penetrates into concrete and forms a surface that improves the adhesion, workability and durability of the topcoat. The new primer can be used on interior or exterior, painted or unpainted concrete, masonry, stucco, CMU block and porous brick surfaces whether vertical or horizontal. Anvil 1750 is also ideal as a touch up primer.
Once the surface is primed with Anvil 1750, the decorative concrete contractor or homeowner can also use Anvil 1700 High Performance Epoxy Show Coat to provide a durable satin finish resistant to chemicals, oil, gasoline, fading and hot tire pick-up. For the finishing touch, Anvil's Wet Look 2350 Super Clear Acrylic Sealer can be added for a super-gloss showroom finish.
Specialty Coating Systems’ new adhesion promotion technology
Specialty Coating Systems (SCS) has introduced a new adhesion promotion technology—AdPro Plus—specifically developed to improve adhesion of parylene conformal coatings to various substrates. AdPro Plus increases adhesion between parylene coatings and various substrates. Strong adhesion of parylene is critical to enable the coating to provide maximum benefit to the application. Optimal adhesion of parylene to a wide variety of substrates, including metal, plastic, elastomer, glass and paper is commonly achieved by a treatment with A-174 silane prior to parylene coating. However, in some applications, materials remain to which parylene coatings may not achieve optimal adhesion. AdPro Plus is an adhesion promotion technique that improves adhesion of parylene coatings to materials such as titanium, stainless steel, gold, chromium, Santoprene, polyimide, polycarbonate and solder mask, to name a few. Additionally, AdPro Plus has demonstrated improved stability at elevated temperatures, making it a good adhesion promotion tool for harsh environment applications.
High temp nylon flash tape for metal and composite bonding
Scapa North America has introduced Scapa 815, a heat-resistant, non-silicone tape that withstands temperatures up to 350°F. This product is designed to mask and hold tools, forms and parts for metal and composite bonding, and for masking PCB contacts during conformal coating. Scapa 815 consists of a high temperature nylon backing, single coated with a rubber adhesive that eliminates the potential for silicone contamination. The 3.2 milliliter-thick tape is easy to apply and remove, and withstands autoclaving if necessary.
BioCoatings markets new vinyl coating system for the marine industry
BioCoatings LLC has unveiled a new vinyl coating system for the marine industry. Featuring the proprietary One Plus Green “0 VOC” solvent and Marine Vinyl Coat (MVC) developed by Tarksol Inc., the system meets all current and proposed environmental and health safety requirements and regulations.
One Plus Green VOC-compliant solvent contains no VOCs, and according to the company, is the only environmentally acceptable solvent available today that can solubilize the vinyl resins required to make vinyl coatings for marine use.
MVC vinyl coatings are environmentally friendly, and have proven more durable than epoxy coatings. MVC is a one-component system formulated especially for marine applications above and below the waterline. It offers toughness and hardness when compared to films prepared from other esters or resins, the company said. MVC is non-temperature dependent and dries in minutes to a very flexible film that can be applied to ships, refineries, docks, barges and other surfaces that require an oxygen barrier and resistance to water. Fast-drying MVC also offers resistance to chemicals, oils, greases and salt, making it ideal for marine applications. The vinyl coating meets military specs and is available in a clear coat or custom colors to match customers’ requirements.
The BioCoatings vinyl coating system can be used on virtually every water lock, dam, dock, barge, ship, hydropower and maintenance facility that requires a tough durable coating.
