Anti-corrosion coatings based on vinyl ester products

What does anti-corrosion coating mean?

Anti-corrosion coatings are applied to various metal elements, entire metal structures, tanks, cisterns, pipelines, concrete elements and structures, building facades, etc., in order to prevent corrosion and preserve their functionality and physical integrity. Newer and more aggressive chemicals are being produced and used in the world. Their impact can destroy floors and walls in industrial facilities, tank linings, cisterns and pipelines. Proper and timely protection of building facades, supporting structures and production parts of the sites from the effects of these stronger chemicals is crucial.
Anti-corrosion coatings are made from various metals, products based on synthetic resins and their mixtures and can be applied as a primer, base layer, or top layer according to different technologies. They give corrosion resistance to various elements, structures, production equipment, pipelines or concrete elements. They help prevent deterioration caused by oxidation, moisture and exposure to various chemicals. They can be modified to protect different substrates in specific aggressive environments.They create additional protection of metal elements and serve as a barrier against contact of corrosive materials with chemical substances.

Chimatech manufactures and offers on the market a range of anti-corrosion products, including primers, paints and coatings. An essential place in this multitude is occupied by products based on vinylester resins. Vinylesters are a combination of polyesters and epoxies. They usually outperform both types in terms of corrosion resistance, temperature resistance and elongation at break (toughness). For this reason, vinyl esters are the first choice when high durability, temperature stability and extremely high corrosion resistance are irrevocable requirements.
