Webinar: Which Packs the Bigger Pretreatment Punch: Iron Phosphate or Zirconium?

Dates:
Start date: Oct 25, 2023, 11:00am ET


Description: Iron phosphate has long been the workhorse (or go-to) pretreatment process for the powder coating industry. With many process options to choose from spray wand to 7 stage. They provide excellent paint adhesion, superior bonding and salt spray hours. Zirconium conversion coatings provide advanced bonding and anti-corrosion treatment for all metals. They are formulated to replace conventional iron or zinc phosphate products in pretreatment applications with environmental, energy and wastewater treatment advantages. During this lively debate, our experts will help you decide which process will pack the bigger pretreatment punch for you – or will it be a combination of both?


Agenda:
 
  • Advantages and disadvantages of each application type
  • Optimizing your process for reducing chemical consumption and cost
  • Regulatory issues to be aware of
