Comments: Following the 750 hours of salt spray, the right-hand side panel showed comparatively little red rust, with minimal creep from the scribe and no corrosion product. This demonstrates excellent adhesion and superior corrosion protection. It is important to note that this panel was double scribed on one diagonal cut. The left-hand side panel showed comparatively extensive corrosion damage, with visible creep from the scribe and corrosion product at the scribe.
Benefits to the customer: Performance increased. Removal of warning label. Cost savings on raw materials.
Industrial
Test: ASTM B117
Duration: 1,000 hours
Film thickness: 200µm
Comments: Intell-ion® containing primers protect on shot blasted steel significantly better than the inhibitor which has been used for the last 25 years
Benefits to customer: Step change in performance, sustainability credentials, differentiated product, increased customer confidence leading to increased sales.
Coil Coatings - Solvent Borne
Test: ASTM B117
Film Thickness: 5-7µm Primer, 20µm Topcoat
Comments: Cut edge failure is the customer’s most common guarantee claim. Intelli-ion® demonstrated 10x the performance on the cut edge than the current chrome free technology with no reformulation.
Benefits for customer: Increased confidence in performance, new to market product
Coil Coatings - Waterborne
Test: Novel Rapid Scanning Vibrating Electrode Technique (SVET) and Natural Weathering on Muriwai Beach, New Zealand.
Film Thickness: 5-7µm Primer, 20µm Topcoat
Comments: With reformulation, the Intelli-ion® technology was incorporated by a Tier 1 company, into a waterborne coil coating. Testing demonstrated the correlation of the superior performance over the current chrome free technology in both the rapid (SVET) and natural weathering testing
Benefits to customer: Protection performance increased by 250% by substituting in the Intelli-ion® technology, new to market product.
