TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY

This technology inhibits both, adhesion and appearance of microorganisms based on two aspects that take place simultaneously: physiochemical incompatibility between the surface of the coating and microorganisms; and biochemical elimination of microorganism by the biocides embedded in the coating.

BENEFITS

  • Surface protection: This technology protects metal surfaces from some chemical reactions which commonly occur in similar situations, such as microbial influenced corrosion or hydrogenase-caused depolarization.
  • Cleansed fuel: Through the elimination of existent microorganisms and further by preventing from their appearance, it avoids organic accumulation and sludge formation, resulting in a clearer fuel in the entire volume. This fact allows for conservation of fuel properties, besides a proper performance of additives.
  • Improved performance, with no accumulation neither deposits along the fuel flow, engine wear and corrosion no longer occur as previously. Besides a better engine maintenance, a decrease in filter plugging drives to a less restricted flow, improving final performance.

APPLICATIONS

Some specific markets which might employ this technology are:

  • Aircraft / aerospace sector paints
  • Coatings sector metallurgical sector
  • Fuels sector (manufacture, transport, storage)
  • Chemical sector

TAGs

  • Antimicrobial coating
  • Microbial contamination
