CHEMEON eTCP® Powder
CHEMEON eTCP Powder conversion coating provides MIL-DTL, QPL listed superior corrosion protection and adhesion on light metals such as 2024 aluminum. With eTCP Powder, you have the flexibility of customizing your bath concentration for optimal processing, enhanced stability, and the advantage of a color indicator for easier visual inspection that parts have been properly coated and protected.
The eTCP® Powder QC/QA advantage:
Being able to quickly see that the coating was applied thoroughly and accurately, allows for efficient identification of inconsistencies, or areas that may require further attention or touch-up. This ensures that the coating meets the required MIL-DTL 81706B, 5541F for commercial aviation, automotive, aerospace or architectural standard and specifications, enhancing overall product quality and performance. The visual indicator that your parts are coated and protected allows for an efficient and quality workflow. This keeps your scheduling, QA, and QC on track to meet or exceed customer expectations.
Environmentally responsible and non-toxic, eTCP Powder is the safe alternative to hexavalent chrome. Compliant with REACH and RoHS directives, eTCP supports industry sustainability goals and provides a safer workplace for employees. eTCP Powder is the most recent MIL-SPEC milestone in a decade long success of CHEMEON innovation in environmentally safe corrosion protection for light metals.
CHEMEON eTCP Powder also offers extra savings direct to your bottom line, because it costs less to ship Powder (1 lb) versus the equivalent amount of liquid product (135 lbs) and leaves a smaller footprint on the environment.
eTCP® Powder = less shipping cost, less storage in your warehouse, less packaging
Next generation technology delivering more protection, for better performance and longer utility.
By eliminating the need for hexavalent chrome, eTCP Powder significantly reduces environmental impact and improves the safety and well-being of workers in the metal finishing industry.
