Passivators

Challenge: Corrosion and oxidation of metal surfaces after cleaning

After cleaning or descaling, the metal surfaces of industrial equipment often become more susceptible to corrosion and oxidation. Lack of protection can lead to rapid deterioration, shortening the equipment’s lifespan and increasing maintenance costs. It is therefore essential to treat these surfaces to prevent the rapid reappearance of rust and corrosive deposits.

Our Solutions

Our passivators provide optimal corrosion protection after cleaning metal surfaces, either by creating a stable protective layer or by effectively passivating stainless steel surfaces. By applying our passivators, you protect your equipment from the harmful effects of corrosion and ensure long-lasting protection, while optimizing its long-term durability.

AP-20

AP-20 passivator is ideal for ferrous metal surfaces (carbon steels) and provides long-term protection against rust by forming a stable protective layer. It is often the preferred choice in industries where long-lasting protection of ferrous metals is required, such as the automotive industry or heavy equipment manufacturing.

SN-10 / SN-20 / SN-35 / SN-50

These passivators are used to passivate stainless steel pipes and tanks. They are also used to passivate stainless steel mechanical parts. They work by removing surface contaminants and promoting the formation of a passive layer of chromium oxide to prevent corrosion. The percentage of nitric acid used for passivation varies depending on the type of stainless steel and environmental conditions (presence of chemicals, heat, humidity).
