CHEMEON eTCP® RTU (Ready to Use)
CHEMEON eTCP® RTU (Ready to Use) conversion coating and anodic seal provides superior corrosion protection and adhesion on light metals such as 2024 aluminum. RTU is premixed, so there is no mixing or determining formulas; simply open the container and it’s ready to apply to the skin of aircraft, vehicles, and parts. It provides significant environmental benefits and energy savings are obtained when used as an anodic seal. The key differentiator is the color verification for quality assurance and quality control (QA / QC) that parts are coated and protected.
CHEMEON eTCP® RTU completed formal evaluation by Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division and has met the qualification requirements for MIL-DTL-81706 Type II, Class 1A and 3, Form III, Methods A, B, and C for spray, brush, and immersion methods. It has also been added to the Qualified Products List (QPL/QPD) under QPL-81706. CHEMEON eTCP RTU is qualified for use as a Type II, Class 1A, and 3 conversion coating under MIL-DTL-5541 in accordance with MIL-DTL-81706 and QPL-81706. With a short lead time, eTCP® RTU ships quickly with no supply chain issues. CHEMEON is a vital small business, government contractor, and teaming partner to the aerospace and defense industry, prime contractors, top-tier metal finishers, and process shops.
