Ardrox 3140 Long Term Corrosion Preventative

Ardrox 3140 provides long term protection for raw materials, sub-assemblies and finished components, which are to be stored or used in corrosive environments. It provides a high standard of protection under conditions of high humidity and is therefore suitable for the protection of components, which are to be stored or transported in tropical climates. Coatings are resistant to rain and are therefore suitable for protection under conditions of outdoor storage.

Ardrox 3140 is not resistant to severe mechanical abrasion but the fully cured coatings will withstand normal handling operations. Other applications include the protection of structural box sections and panelled areas of all road, rail and sea transport vehicles. Ideally, when used in this way, Ardrox 3140 should form part of a water removal and protection process. The first part of this process is the elimination of water and moisture films by application of Ardrox 3961 or 3962 and then, when solvent evaporation from these products is complete, Ardrox 3140 is applied for long term protection.
