In September 2016, PPG launched Aerocron e-coat primer pilot system in France for the aerospace industry. The company adapted the proven e-coat technology for corrosion resistance from automotive and industrial businesses to meet aerospace supplies. Also, in October 2015, PPG Industries acquired Chemfil Canada Limited. This acquisition would enhance the ability to supply pretreatment coatings to industrial customers and automotive manufacturers in Canada.

In October 2016, Chemetall introduced a non-phosphorous pretreatment for three-stage spray washers. Gardobond AP 9811 is a liquid, phosphorus-free, dry-in-place pretreatment that enhances the performance of subsequently applied organic liquid and powder coatings. This easy-to-use product may help in improving customers’ cycle time, capacity utilization, and yield.

Furthermore, in July 2016, Chemetall announced Tech Cool 35052CF, a chlorine-free semi-synthetic metalworking coolant and received Boeing Aircraft approval. This product would result in emulsion stability, extended tool life, low foam levels, corrosion resistance, and lower operational costs.

In July 2016, AkzoNobel launched a new water-based primer is applied in the pretreatment stage. This product reduces material handling and conversion costs by enabling a mono-bake satellite coil line to achieve a two-coat paint system in a single pass, to double the capacity.
