Characteristics

Characteristics of the Rust-Anode Primer
Mono-component product
99.995% pure organic zinc
Lower in VOCs
Cathodic protection due to electrochemical bond with the metal (measurable [Ω resistance])
Easy to apply with standard painting equipment, including electrostatic
Required surface preparation: SSPC-SP7 or SSPC-SP6, or acid, depending on the case
It May be applied on non-friable rust, free of dust
Can be covered with most paint products
Can be used in duplex over new old hot-dip galvanization over new and old metallization
Rust-Anode^® Primer comes in only one color: flat grey natural zinc RAL # 7005
An equal dry film thickness of Rust-Anode^® Primer provides the same performance as hot galvanization and metallization
No structural distortion
Flexibility
Permanent adhesion
Do not create cathodic disbondment
Follow thermal expansions
Moisture cured, without dew point considerations
Metal with Rust-Anode^® on can be welded through with less of the release of toxic gases or flash
Has anti-fouling properties ([anti-shelling] when immersed)
High resistance to saltwater and salty environments
It May be applied to aluminum, stainless, corten, cast iron, (all metals), concrete and existing paint after minimal cleaning
Resists to hydrocarbons such as hydraulic fluid, diesel, gasoline, urea, etc.
Dries quickly (hygro-reactive) in moist environments
Can be used at any time to retouch Rust-Anode^® Primer coated surfaces
Can be applied at temperatures from –5°C and +37°C (23°F to +98°F)
Meets ASTM B117 (Salt Spray Test), ASTM D522 (Mandrel Bend Test), CAN/CGSB 1-GP-71 Method 119.5 and CAN/CGSB 1.181 and Canadian Food Inspection Agency standards
