AkzoNobel Aerospace Coatings Next generation structural waterborne coatings

Most of the internal, structural parts of an aircraft are sealed into areas of the structure that will never be accessed again during the life of the airframe which can be as long as 30 years. As such, the materials used to protect these parts need to have exceptional chemical and corrosion resistance along with flexibility to ensure the integrity of the paint film as the aircraft flexes during flight. The next generation Aerowave® Series of Structural Waterborne Coatings provides these features along with optimal process/application time for OEM’s (Original Equipment Manufacturers) while...

Optimized film formation (Coalescence) Obtain better adhesion no matter what new substrate or pre-treatment. • Better substrate wetting properties • Good layer thickness control • Better adhesion & flexibility • Compatible with new substrates & pre-treatments • Chrome-free chemical conversion coating • Chrome-free anodizing process • Consistent film properties during pot life • Less sensitive to substrate contamination Optimized application • Compatible with all conventional, plural, and next generation spray equipment • Compatible with waterborne electrostatic spray equipment • Required...

The next generation Aerowave® Series Structural Waterborne Coatings are formulated to optimize process/application time, waste, and coating weight. Reduced process/application time Mixing preparation for first and second generation structural coatings is complicated, time-consuming, and can be expensive. Mixing at high and medium sheers requires constant mechanical agitation. This means investing in special mixing equipment. Additionally, the products are difficult to mix in two component spray equipment. This can lead to poor film formation and film faults. Moving to Aerowave® Series Next...
