After spraying application and polymerization, SOCOGEL A0104 is a sol-gel solution that forms a high performance multifunctional coating. It is a chromium free technology free from CMR substances (carcinogenic, mutagenic, reprotoxic). The application process of this technology requires less energy compared with bath product application. It doesn’t require water and does not generate effluent treatment.
This coating technology is covered by the following granted patent FR 05/51417 and the published patent WO 200/003828
The SOCOGEL characteristics are:
-
Adhesion promoter prior to painting and bonding (ISO 2409)
-
Anti-corrosion protection (SST) on al-riched AA (5xxxx and 6xxxx series) (ISO 9227)
-
Anti-corrosion protection (SST) with AIRBUS paint system (ISO 9227): > 3000h
-
Protection against filiform corrosion
-
Adhesion on multi-substrates (metals, plastics, composites, glass) (ISO 2409)
-
Chemical protection (Skydrol®, solvents, acids, base) (ISO 2812)
-
Mechanic protection (impacts, scratches) (ISO 1518)
-
Improves the cleaning ability of the surface
