Alkaline Zinc Systems Reduce Rejects, Increase Productivity
Asterion will showcase its RoHS-compliant Asterion Ultra alkaline zinc systems at Sur/Fin 2018, designed to provide corrosion protection while reducing rejects, increasing productivity and enhancing appearance.
Asterion will showcase its RoHS-compliant Asterion Ultra alkaline zinc systems, designed to provide corrosion protection while reducing rejects, increasing productivity and enhancing appearance. Each system includes TechniBrite Ultra Zn alkaline zinc, which is formulated to produce bright, ductile deposits with uniform and precise thickness distributions over a wide current density range. Delivering exceptional chromate adhesion, the coating is highly tolerant to zinc brightener levels and temperature conditions, the company says.
Suited for both rack and barrel operations without burning, the systems also feature UltraPass trivalent passivates for high neutral salt spray results. UltraSeal sealants provide added corrosion protection.

Development of a Novel Hexavalent-Chromium-Free Aluminum Sacrificial Paint
Hexavalent chromium is a known carcinogen, repro-toxin, and mutagen. Its elimination is of high importance to the aerospace industry, which has struggled to find high performing alternatives. Legacy aluminum sacrificial paints have traditionally utilized hexavalent chromium to prevent corrosion and coatings which are equal to or better than have been difficult. This first paper discusses the novel process from the supplier point-of-view.
