Rust, the nemesis of metal surfaces, has long plagued industries with its destructive capabilities. But what if there was a solution that could eliminate rust and prevent its return with just one application? Enter CorrVerter®, the revolutionary rust converter primer developed by Cortec®.
CorrVerter® is not your ordinary primer; it’s a fast-drying, water-based one-coat system designed to convert rusted surfaces into a hydrophobic passive layer. This unique formulation, comprising chelating agents and PVDC resins, works by chemically converting rust into a stable compound, effectively halting further corrosion in its tracks.
One of the key benefits of CorrVerter® is its simplicity. With just one coat, it transforms rusted surfaces, making them resistant to future rusting. Gone are the days of labor-intensive rust removal processes; CorrVerter® simplifies the restoration of metal surfaces, saving both time and resources.
However, like any high-performance product, proper surface preparation is crucial for optimal results. The substrate must be free of loose rust, grease, oil, dirt, fingerprints, drawing compounds, and rust inhibitors. System adhesion testing are recommended before full-scale application to ensure compatibility and effectiveness.
For optimal performance, it is recommended to remove any loose rust before applying CorrVerter®. Additionally, when using solvent-based topcoats over CorrVerter®, compatibility checks are necessary. Thankfully, all Cortec® High-Performance Coatings are compatible with CorrVerter®, ensuring seamless integration into existing coating systems.
CorrVerter® can applied via spray, brush,
roll, or dip and is:
CorrVerter® can be topcoated with both water-based and solvent based topcoats including:
In summary, CorrVerter® offers a comprehensive solution to rust problems, eliminating the need for laborious rust removal processes and providing long-term protection against corrosion. Its innovative formulation and ease of use make it a go-to choice for industries and homeowners looking to prolong the life of their metal assets.
With CorrVerter®, say goodbye to the hassle of rust and hello to a future of rust-free surfaces. Experience the power of CorrVerter® and eliminate the blast, coat the rust.
Product and customer insights
CHALLENGE A power plant relying on ultrafiltration (UF) and reverse osmosis (RO) faced a critical operational challenge. A wastewater treatment upset severely fouled the UF system, drastically reducing water production. Despite multiple cleaning attempts with sodium hypochlorite and citric acid, transmembrane pressure (TMP) remained high, and flux showed no improvement. The plant’s inability to meet […]
CHALLENGE A gold processing plant in New Zealand sought to improve gold recovery efficiency while addressing high Total Organic Carbon (TOC) levels. Elevated TOC increased the Preg-Robbing Factor (PRF), reducing the plant’s ability to efficiently recover gold during the Carbon-In-Leach (CIL) process. The traditional use of kerosene as a carbon blanking agent offered limited efficacy, […]
CHALLENGE A municipal water reuse plant processing 8 million gallons per day (MGD) experienced severe fouling and scaling issues, including calcium phosphate and silica deposits. With steep feed pressure increases and differential pressures in both stages, the plant required frequent cleanings every 4 to 6 weeks, amounting to 32 cleanings annually. Each cleaning cycle resulted […]
The plant was experiencing weekly shutdowns for fiber clean up (~ 3 kg bags of matted slurry is cleaned per week). The shut downs were costly as they reduce plant availability for production.
CHALLENGE A municipal reverse osmosis (RO) plant on Florida’s west coast, with a 20 MGD capacity, faced high operational costs due to its reliance on 93% sulfuric acid for pH adjustment. The plant used a combination of a brackish water reverse osmosis (BWRO) membranes and fiberglass-wrapped membranes across 10 trains, each operating at 75% recovery. […]
The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) regulation, known as IMO 2020 was the the largest change in regulation relating to marine fuels impacting 75% of the fuel used by the shipping industry.
Keeping drilling costs low using Redi-Guard™ High Performance, an ecologically friendly drilling fluid technology with revolutionary rheological and shale encapsulation properties
CHALLENGE A municipal reverse osmosis (RO) plant, with a capacity of 2 million gallons per day (MGD), faced frequent system cleanings, every 2-4 months, due to rising feed pressure. The plant, which sources water from brackish wells and uses Toray TMG-20D-400 membranes in a (16×7) -> (8×7) train configuration, was operating at 78% recovery. Despite […]
Research indicates that Sea Buckthorn may be able to strengthen the immune system. One in vitro study focused on the possible immunomodulatory properties of Sea Buckthorn.
AWC A-110 effectively inhibited scale at a dosage of 3.5 ppm and an operating pH of 6.9. This increase in operating pH reduced the district’s annual acid consumption by ~$350K per year based on their current production.
MCI® -2020 V/O and ChemMaster’s Colorsil were chosen to repair and protect the walls based on their 20 year warranties and the fact that together they could fulfill the other specified repair design requirements.
Despite numerous cleanings, the productivity of the Reverse Osmosis plant would not recover from severe membrane fouling. The membrane autopsy revealed that the ferric hydroxide was seeding
silica polymerization and that even while the ferric hydroxide was removed, the silica scaling was continuing to grow.
The East Hokkaido region is known to have the highest volume of potato product in Japan. Unfortunately, a potato farmer in the area was experiencing a high rate of potato scab infection in his agricultural field.
