BondCoats
BondCoats are a class of protective coatings designed to form strong chemical bonds with substrate surfaces, thereby improving adhesion and long-term durability. They are typically used as an intermediate layer between the substrate and the outer protective coat, enhancing corrosion resistance and overall coating performance.
Composition and mechanism vary by formulation but commonly include silane-based compounds, organometallic precursors, or epoxy and
Applications span several industries, including aerospace, automotive, marine, energy, and electronics. BondCoats are used on metals
History and development have focused on improving adhesion to difficult substrates, expanding compatibility with high-performance topcoats,
Advantages and limitations: BondCoats can significantly boost substrate adhesion, improve corrosion resistance, and extend service life.
Safety and regulation: Handling BondCoats typically requires appropriate personal protective equipment and ventilation. Substance-specific safety data
