PPG ENVIROCRON Primeron Powder Primer Series
PPG today announced the launch of the PPG ENVIROCRON® Primeron primer powder portfolio, designed to provide high corrosion resistance for metal substrates including steel, hot-dip-galvanized steel, metalized steel and aluminum.
“Protective primers are the first line of defense to protect metal surfaces from corrosion, the most significant challenge in the metal coatings industry,” said Lorenzo Soldavini, PPG technical manager powder, EMEA, Industrial Coatings.
“Use of PPG Envirocron Primeron primer in a multi-layer system offers optimal corrosion protection and is key to extending a product’s lifespan and preserving its structural integrity.”
The PPG Envirocron Primeron primer powder portfolio has been tested according to the corrosivity categories and approved by the QUALISTEELCOAT international quality label for coated steel.
The series covers a wide range of requirements depending on end use, operating environment and the substrate used:
• PPG Envirocron Primeron ZINC coating is a zincrich primer offering strong corrosion protection.
• PPG Envirocron Primeron PRO coating is a solid basic primer for strong corrosion protection regardless of the pre-treatment method. It offers good mechanical performance with a well-balanced property profile.
• PPG Envirocron Primeron EDGE coating offers corrosion protection for substrates with sharp edges. It is optimized for degassing substrates.
• PPG Envirocron Primeron FLEX coating provides very good corrosion protection for multiple substrates including aluminum and different pretreatment methods.
