ECOAT® WH Treatment
PLUS Series enhances corrosion resistance, chemical resistance, and galvanic corrosion (contact corrosion between different metals) prevention performance.
- Chromium-free
- High corrosion resistance
- Chemical resistance
- Galvanic corrosion prevention
Mechanism of ECOAT® WH treatment
ECOAT® WH has a two-layer structure of zinc special inorganic coating (coatings such as DACROTIZED® and GEOMET®) and special resin coating. In addition to the anti-rust and anti-corrosion performance of zinc special inorganic coating, it has improved chemical resistance to acids and alkalis, galvanic corrosion resistance, and anti-corrosion performance against construction scratches, making it an environmentally friendly and highly durable surface treatment.
Seven features of ECOAT® WH treatment
Point1
Provides surface treatment with excellent corrosion resistance.
Point2
Effective in preventing galvanic corrosion (contact corrosion between different metals).
Point3
Effective for measures against acid rain during outdoor use.
Point4
Provides surface treatment with excellent weather resistance.
Point5
Environmentally friendly (chromium-free, complying with RoHS)
Point6
Provides non-hydrogen brittle surface treatment.
Point7
Provides non-drainage surface treatment.
Major applications of ECOAT® WH treatment
- Metal assemblies for wooden houses
- Photovoltaic panels
- Outdoor machinery and equipment
- General civil engineering (outdoor) structures
- Outdoor structures in salt-damaged areas
