Geomet Coating |
|
A completely Chromium Free Coating |
|
GEOMET®, developed as a chromium-free solution to the environmental regulations enacted by the government and automotive industry, is the next generation in the Metal Coatings International product line. GEOMET® is a water-based, VOC compliant coating comprised of overlapping zinc and aluminum flake in an inorganic binder. |

|
Four Way Corrosion Protection |
|
° |
Barrier Protection: Overlapping zinc and aluminum flakes provide an excellent barrier between the steel substrate and the corrosive media |
|
| ° |
Galvanic Action: Zinc corrodes to protect steel |
| ° |
Passivation: Metal oxides slow down the corrosion reaction of zinc and steel to provide 3 times greater corrosion protection than pure zinc |
| ° |
Self-Repairing: Zinc oxides and carbonates migrate to the damaged area of the coating to actively repair the coating and restore barrier protection |
| |
