ATLANTA, June 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- On June 20, 2017 CHEMEON Surface Technology, a leading business-to-business provider offering surface engineering solutions for light metals, debuted two of its latest innovations, CHEMEON TCP-HF RTU (Hexavalent Free/Ready To Use) and a novel TRIVALENT COLORANT (patent pending), which provide the industry with the most highly effective, consistent, stable and environmentally safe trivalent chromate alternatives to hexavalent chromates as a conversion coating and seal. (Booth #747)
CHEMEON TCP-HF RTU is a patent pending Ready To Use version of TCP-HF. Unlike other ready to use trivalent chromates, TCP-HF RTU is truly ready to use – the pH has been pre-set and stabilized during the manufacturing process so that the chemistry produces optimum coatings without the need to analyze and adjust the chemistry. And adding CHEMEON'S colorant to the TCP-HF bath provides stability that produces trivalent chromium conversion coatings in various shades of blue on the surface of aluminum parts. CHEMEON's corrosion resistant coatings meet salt spray, low electrical resistance, and paint adhesion requirements of MIL-DTL-5541 and MIL-DTL-81706.
"Innovation at CHEMEON is driven by our customers' needs," stated Ted Ventresca, President and COO of CHEMEON Surface Technology. "Ready-to-use CHEMEON TCP-HF RTU and CHEMEON Trivalent Colorant are just two examples of how we're working closely with our customers and industry to address its most pressing corrosion, adhesion and quality control challenges."
