Can rust converters prevent rust?

Water-based rust converters are meticulously formulated using novel polymer emulsions as film-forming agents, supplemented with wetting and penetrating additives along with functional auxiliaries. This ready-to-use product can be directly applied to rusted surfaces, where it undergoes a complexation reaction with rust to form a dense, black protective coating. It not only converts rust into stable complexes but also firmly adheres to the steel surface, blocking contact with air. Functioning as a primer, it provides effective rust prevention. Surface rust removal is an essential step before anti-corrosion coating. Well-treated surfaces typically achieve 7-8 years of protection, while poorly prepared surfaces offer only 4-6 months.

Advantages of Water-Based Rust Converters:

Using rust converters reduces the labor intensity of manual rust removal, extends the service life of the coating layer, and decreases the frequency of coating maintenance and associated labor. They are particularly suitable for priming large outdoor steel structures and color-coated steel sheets, where surface treatment is challenging due to their size. For rusted steel surfaces, rust converters eliminate the need for grinding or sandblasting. Simply apply the converter directly to the rusted surface. It chemically reacts with the rust, transforming it into a protective, stable black complex that becomes an integral part of the primer. Our rust conversion agents are widely used for rust-inhibiting corrosion protection on metal surfaces including rebar, steel structures, storage tanks, and pipelines.
