$42.68
Chemical Name:
Alodine 1000 RTU Conversion Coating
Synonyms:
Chromate Conversion Coating

Detailed Product Description:

 

This is a clear conversion coating.  As with the more common Alodine® 1201,

 

Alodine® 1000 RTU, is also a registered trademark of Henkel Surface Technologies

 

and is a chemical treatment process for aluminum used to provide corrosion protection

 

and as a surface preparation for paint and adhesives.  Sometimes called “aluminum

 

passivation,” it contains hexavalent chromium and is intended to provide corrosion

 

prevention even when left unpainted.  

 

 

Alodine® 1000 RTU is similar in formulation to Alodine® 1001 and is used when

 

a clear coating or aluminum appearance is desired instead of the more typical

 

gold color of the Alodine® 1201 finish.

 

 

Specification & Certifications:

 

Alodine® 1000 RTU methods and properties are defined by Mil-C-5541-F

 

(NowAMS-C-5541 andAMS-A-2473).  This product is listed on QPL-81706

 

and certified for Class 3 coatings.

 

 

Application Notes:

 

Applications in which temperatures can reach over 120ºF can break down

 

the corrosion resistance of the coating.  In comparison to anodizing, this

 

chemical film is more fragile and not generally recommended for high-use

 

areas.  This is a clear coating that leaves the surface with nearly the original

 

aluminum appearance. 

 

 

Surface Preparation:

 

After degreasing, aluminum surfaces must be cleaned with a suitable etchant

 

such as Alumiprep 33 or Metal Prep 79, followed by a water rinse.

 

 

Consult Technical Process Bulletin #235651, downloadable from the link

 

below for further process methods and application details.

 

 

Packaging/Size:

 

Comes packed in either 1-pint or 1-quart HDPE lab-quality Nalgene bottles

 

With tamper-evident seal in heat-sealed poly bag.  Certs available on request.
