Pigmentan is an innovative company that develops, manufactures and markets a novel and unique family of anti-corrosive pigments.

Environmentally friendly anti corrosive protection

Pigmental offers superior anti-corrosion protection, cost saving and significant environmental benefits when compared to many of the alternative technologies in use today.

The products are environmentally friendly and do not contain heavy metals or other harmful ingredients, and therefore do not require any hazard labelling.

Products

Pigmentan 465M

 
Non-Toxic Anticorrosive Pigment for Solvent and Water Based Primers

Pigmentan 465M is a non-toxic anticorrosive pigment primarily used for solvent based primers. In certain formulations it can also be used in water based products.

Pigmentan 456M-FG

 
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 465M-FG which has a mean particle size of less than 5 microns.

Pigmentan E

 
Non-Toxic Anticorrosive Pigment

Pigmentan E is a non-toxic anticorrosive pigment, with better compatibility with certain formulations.

  

Pigmentan E-FG

 
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.

Pigmentan EMX

 
Environmental Friendly Direct Substitute for Basic Zinc Phosphate

Pigmentan MX 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.

 

Pigmentan MX

 
Environmental Friendly Direct Substitute for Basic Zinc Phosphate

Pigmentan MX 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.

 

Applications

General Industrial Coatings – Solvent borne

Pigmentan products 465M, E, MX and EMX 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 EA 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 and Water borne Epoxy Primers

Pigmentan 465M and Pigmentan E are both very efficient corrosion inhibitors in solvent based epoxy primers, while Pigmentan EA 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 465M 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.
