Nycote provides fully qualified chromate-free protection for aircraft fuel tanks.
Why Chromates Are Being Phased Out
Corrosion protection inside aircraft fuel tanks has long relied on chromate pigments. These materials are hazardous and are facing increasing regulatory restrictions.
As the industry moves toward safer, chromate-free solutions, coating systems need to evolve. Nycote coatings are fully qualified for use in aircraft fuel tanks, completely chromate-free, and designed to protect sensitive components, whether they are previously coated or bare.
What Makes a High-Performance Chromate-Free Coating?
- Strong adhesion to aluminum substrates
- Resistance to fuel and chemical exposure
- Long-term corrosion inhibition
- Ease of application and maintenance
