PPG aviation aerocron electrophoretic primer has obtained air force quality certification

PPG recently announced that it has obtained air force quality certification due to its aerocron aviation electrophoretic primer, which has excellent corrosion resistance and interlayer adhesion enhancement for aircraft component base materials The air force military pointed out in the airworthiness notice that this kind of primer can be used as the technical specification for painting the exterior surface of aircraft components, and listed the electrophoretic primer of PPG in the air force technical specification 1-1-8 Terry, head of a US Air Force Program Gabbert said that the air force is working with PPG to jointly promote the field test of aircraft coated with PPG AEB in multiple bases We have studied these first-hand data materials to verify that the AEB has the same or better performance compared with the spray primer comparison samples According to this, the air force decided that the aerocron AEB of PPG obtained the military quality certification, It is listed in the application system of electrophoretic coatings of the U.S Department of defense Duane utter, global business manager of PPG's coating business in protection, aviation and America, said that for many years, the U.S Air Force has been the user of PPG's aviation primer, and the two sides have worked closely to carry out research and development through laboratory and field testing of coating performance Thank you very much for the support of the air force military, and continue to work on R & D to meet the military's anti-corrosion needs Compared with the typical spray primer, the electrophoretic primer plays a great role in the aviation field Its coating is flat and has excellent corrosion resistance Moreover, the coating is thinner, which is conducive to aircraft lightweight and fuel economy Its construction performance is excellent, and the heat curing time is about 30 minutes In addition, the maintenance is faster, so as to improve the utilization rate of aircraft.
