HALOX® 680 is an organic ion exchange inhibitor designed as a smart corrosion inhibitor that is released on demand to enhance coating performance. It is a cost-competitive, zero-VOC, fine-milled powder that acts as a synergist with other anticorrosive pigments such as Zinc Phosphate, Z-PLEX 111, SZP-391, and HALOX® 430. By integrating into the organic matrix, HALOX® 680 improves coating adhesion and reduces cathodic delamination (undercutting at the scribe). Additionally, it can be post-added to most solvent-based paints for formulation flexibility.
Compatible with solvent-borne, high solids, and powder coatings, HALOX® 680 is also suitable for water-borne coatings with proper pH adjustment due to its acidic nature. It enables reduced Zinc Phosphate loadings in anticorrosive primers while maintaining effectiveness. With non-flammable properties, it is ideal for solvent-borne primers, DTM alkyds, epoxies, urethanes, high solids and 100% solids epoxies, powder coatings, and coil coatings. It can also be formulated into semi-gloss paints, water-borne epoxies, and acrylics.
