Pretreatment
Aluminium, steel or Zintec surfaces to be coated must be clean and free from grease. Iron phosphate and
particularly lightweight zinc phosphating of ferrous metals improves corrosion resistance.
Aluminium substrates may require a chromate conversion coating.
Application
Interpon 700 AM powders can be applied by manual or automatic electrostatic spray equipment. Unused
powder can be reclaimed using suitable equipment and recycled through the coating system.
Additional
Information
Interpon 700 AM in conjunction with BioCote Ltd has been tested for antimicrobial efficacy versus the ISO
22196: 2007 and exhibited a minimum of 95% and up to 99.99%v reduction in bacterial population, classified
as microbiological results satisfactory. Testing by Biocote Ltd is carried out by an independent laboratory
and has included the following bacteria:
