Water Pipe Maintenance and Rust Protection
Pipes are used extensively in the supply and delivery of liquids. During this process, these are exposed to the atmospheric corrosions and water / liquid based impurities. The maintenace of these pipes is essential to reduce operating costs.
Rust is most damaging to metallic surfaces and pipes. Paint and coatings can help prevetn rusting but many a times it is not easy to paint the pipes.
Consider the examples of submerged pipes, tube well pipes, pipes used with boilers etc. It is important to put the rust prevention measures before installing the pipes. You can use the rust converter and substantially reduce your maintenence costs.
The Rust Converter is based on the principle of reacting and reducing the rust.
Rust Converter is a unique properietary product developed by VIVID specially for removal and prevention of rust on Iron Metallic surfaces and iron metal reinforced concrete structures.
The rust converter is synthetic polymeric formula that converts existing rust into moisture free, gray protective coating. Not only does it eliminate existing rust, but it seals out moisture to prevent the possibility of future rust formation and corrosion.
Rust Conversion Mechanism
The chemical mode of action of rust converters is the conversion of porous and loose iron oxide (rsut) into firmly adhering iron phosphate layers. Rust Converter is a water based coating. When used as single coat, rust scales are converted into a dark blue-gray film, which retards further rust formation and also works as a primer or base coat for any other protective coating.
Rust converter is an alternative to surface preparation by sand blasting or grinding etc.
Rust Converter Application
Storage tanks, pipes, metal structures, machinery tools, trucks, Auto bodies, bridges, ships, or any other metal parts liable to rusting.
