Anti-Corrosive Protection
Pigmentan is a Novel Unique Family of Anti-Corrosive Pigments Manufactured by Banner Chemicals Group.
Applications
General Industrial Coatings
Solvent borne
Pigmentan products 465MF, E and MZ may be successfully used in solvent borne general industrial coatings at lower loading than existing anticorrosion pigments. They provide improved resistance to corrosion and lower cost on steel, aluminium and galvanized steel.
General Industrial Coatings
Water borne
For water based systems of all types, Pigmentan MZ is the recommended product – with excellent anticorrosion performance in styrene acrylic and acrylic emulsions as well as in water based alkyds and epoxy systems.
Protective Coatings
Solvent & Water borne Epoxy Primers
Pigmentan 465MF and Pigmentan E are both very efficient corrosion inhibitors in solvent based epoxy primers, while Pigmentan E may be used in high performance water based epoxy primers.
Wash/Etch Primers
Solvent & Water based Wash Primers
In classical Wash Primer e.g. Mil Spec. 8514 (based on PVB and Phosphoric acid), the anticorrosion pigment is zinc chromate or zinc tetra-oxy-chromate.
Coil Coatings
Common coil coating primer formulations are based on polyester resins heat cured with amino resins with acid catalysts. This is due to the very high throughput speed of coil coating lines where typical residence time at the PMT (Peak Metal Temperature) is 20-35 seconds.
Powder Coatings
Pigmentan E and 465MF give excellent performance in Powder Coating formulations. They may be used in both.Polyester -TGIC systems for exterior applications, as well as Epoxy-Polyester systems for general metal coating.
Substrate
Pigmentan products provides an ultimate, non-toxic protection for aluminum and aluminum alloys in industrial and maintenance primers, coil and can coatings, aerospace, automotive, marine and pre-treatment applications.

Products
Non-Toxic Anticorrosive Pigment for Solvent and Water Based Primers
Pigmentan 465MF is a non-toxic anticorrosive pigment primarily used for solvent based primers. In certain formulations it can also be used in water based products.
Environmental Friendly Direct Substitute for Basic Zinc Phosphate
Pigmentan MZ is a low cost, high performance, environmentally friendly, direct (1:1) substitute for basic Zinc Phosphate. It is suitable for use in primers for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Premium Environmentally Friendly Anticorrosive Pigment. Suitable for thin film Solvent Based Primers. Excellent Performance and Cost Effectiveness
For thin-film primers and other special coatings, we recommend Pigmentan 465MF-FG which has a mean particle size of less than 5 microns.
Non-Toxic Anticorrosive Pigment
Pigmentan E is a non-toxic anticorrosive pigment, with better compatibility with certain formulations.
Premium Environmentally Friendly Anticorrosive Pigment Suitable for thin film Solvent Base Primers
For thin-film primers and other special coatings, we recommend Pigmentan E-FG. This product has a mean particle size of less than 5 microns. This grade is useful for lower film weights, and for easier dispersion of the anti-corrosive pigment into the paint system.
