Magtyte
Preface
|
In view of the environmental conservation and product durability,
the conventional use of plastic raw materials has gradually been shifted
to that of magnesium alloy which is light in weight with enough strength
and yet allowing a recycling advantage in use, covering the industrial fields
from automobile parts, home electronic products, office automation products,
telecommunication devices, farm and forestry equipment parts, broadcasting
equipment parts, etc.
The magnesium alloy retains enough strength per weight, manifesting
a l/4 weight compared with that of iron and a 2/3 weight compared with aluminum.
The magnesium alloy is, however, generally known as one of the materials
very hard to coat. Even with the chromic acid treatment applied, it causes
important problems such as insufficient adhesive strength resulting from
a release agent, cutting oil, and unevenness of treatment involved therein,
and inadequate corrosion resistance incurred from impurities slightly contained
in the materials. Magtyte is an epoch-making primer used exclusively for magnesium alloy, developed for providing a coating layer that is not only excellent in adhesive strength but also superior in corrosion resistance, using epoxy resin as its major component mixed with stable rust-preventive pigment.

(1) |
Adjustment of Coating |
|
|
Magtyte is a two-part type.
By fully mixing base coats for making a uniform mixture, add Magtyte
adjuster thereto, followed by dilution with use of dedicated thinner. (Since
other type of thinners may not dissolve, be sure to use the dedicated thinner.)
