Condoroil Launches Condorcoat EC 930, a New Nanotechnology Conversion Product Nanotechnology Conversion
Product Condorcoat EC 930 is the new frontier of pre-treatment: a nano ceramic process, more commonly known as “nanotechnology process”, for the surface conversion of iron, galvanised metal and aluminium (Fig. 1). The nanotechnology product Condorcoat EC 930 creates a very compact inorganic layer, although much thinner than that achieved with iron phosphating. The protection obtained is of higher quality and with lower operating costs. Condorcoat EC 930 is free from phosphates, heavy metals such as zinc, manganese, nickel, etc., COD, and VOC; it is therefore highly eco-
