The automotive coating is a complicated system which needs multi-stage deposition and consumes a lot of energy releasing high amount of wastes. There are still concerns of automotive producers on anti-corrosion protection of current coating systems especially on cut edges and in hollow structures. Therefore the automotive industry is looking for new technologies which could require:
less deposition steps;
reduction of VOC generation
lower coating thickness ensuring the same or even better corrosion protection
providing proper adhesion properties
improved performance in critical zones
Project Approach
Active feed-back of the coatings depends on the internal state of the coating system and the external environmental conditions
Different levels of active protection are working as response to different impacts
