Our Process
An autodeposition (a-coat or autophoretic) bath which consists of a mildly acidic latex emulsion polymer, DI water, and other proprietary ingredients. The bath solids are normally between 3% and 5% by weight. The bath viscosity is close to that of water with little or no organic solvents. Another characteristic of the autodeposition coating process is quite simple. The mildly acidic bath liberates a small amount of iron from the steel parts immersed, causing coating deposition on the surface of the steel parts. The newly deposited organic film is adherent yet quite porous. This allows the chemical activators to diffuse rapidly in the film and etch the surface of the metal. The continuous formation of coating provides the film with a high degree of surface protection and corrosion resistance.
We can demonstrate, through testing and application development, how our autodeposition coating meets your performance criteria:
