Corroless™

Industrial liquid coatings

For nearly half a century, Corroless™ products have been protecting vital iron and steel structures from the expensive ravages of corrosion. From environments ranging from desert heat to offshore storms, Corroless™ materials provide cost effective, long term protection. The Corroless™ philosophy combines products of the highest quality, together with detailed, professional advice from project specification through to material application.

CorrolessTM Corrosion Inhibitors (CCI's)

Corroless™ Corrosion Inhibitors (CCI's) are a group of products based on anticorrosive volatile compounds, known as Vapour Corrosion Inhibitors (commonly called VCI's). Normal coatings provide anticorrosive protection mainly by forming a physical barrier - the paint layer. VCI's contain compounds that evaporate, or vapourise, to form an anticorrosive 'gas' in an air space, which helps prevent metal components from rusting. VCI's can therefore be used to protect metal areas that would be impossible to paint, either because they are inaccessible (internal pipework, inside a marine engine) or because painting would not be suitable (such as an electrical circuit board, an electrical supply box). CCI's are available as powder, or powder-containing 'devices', to protect dry spaces; as oils and greases for mechanical internals, ropes, winches; as temporary preservation coatings for metal items in storage; and as hydrotest additives (mainly for offshore use) that can be discharged into the marine environment.

Primers

From the 1950's, Corroless™ has specialised in rust stabilising primers, containing the unique Corroless™ pigment. Preparation by blast cleaning is often impossible or undesirable, yet long term protection is still required over a hand-prepared, rusty steel substrate. Our special Corroless™ primers have proved themselves over 'rusty' steelwork, time and again, over many decades. Engineers have often specified Corroless™ primers repeatedly, based on their successful experiences, in the real world, over many years.

Topcoats

Corroless™ topcoats have been designed to optimise the effect of Corroless™ primers, to provide an excellent, complete Corroless™ system. Unlike traditional topcoats, Corroless™ topcoats have been reinforced with glass flake, to increase durability and the impermeability to moisture, for greater anticorrosive protection.

Corroless™ ACO

Corroless™ ACO (previously named 'Acothane') is a range of highly specialised, state-of-the-art, two pack polyurethane, solvent free coatings for the pipe coating industry. The range includes spray grade for large areas, brush grade for smaller areas and mastic grades for repairs and welds, in addition to other special variants. Corroless™ ACO has been used in many countries throughout the world for major projects. Please consult Axalta Coating Systems to discuss your project requirements.
