HALOX® 550 is a liquid organic-inorganic sol-gel corrosion inhibitor designed for corrosion protection in thin film coatings: water and solvent-based finishes, high gloss DTM, conventional primers, acrylic clear coats, fast drying lacquers, wash primers, anti-fingerprint, and conversion coatings.

Advantages

HALOX® 550 provides excellent corrosion resistance in thin-film applications. It reduces white rust on galvanized steel and black rust on Galvalume™ substrates. Furthermore, it reduces the oxidation of silver, steel and aluminum alloys.

Benefits

It does not affect gloss. It is post-addable and environmentally-friendly! It provides synergy with anti-corrosive pigments (HALOX® SZP-391, HALOX® 430, HALOX® Zinc phosphate) to maximize corrosion resistance.

Mechanism

Hydrophobic film formation, adhesion promoter, synergist.

Recommendations

It can be used in water-based and solvent-based paints. It is also recommended as an aqueous rust preventative (RP), which can be top-coated to improve adhesion and corrosion resistance.
