Aquacer 1062 new high-efficiency temporary rust inhibiting wax emulsion solution

Bik Chemistry 2025-12-11 14:39:32

During storage and transportation, exposed metal surfaces often face severe challenges: the salt in seawater and sea breeze, as well as condensation caused by extreme temperature changes, can easily lead to corrosion. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an efficient temporary anti-rust solution, and the anti-rust layer should be easily removable from the metal surface during subsequent processing.

AQUACER 1062 is a new wax additive launched by BYK Chemical, designed specifically for temporary rust protection while meeting extremely high gloss requirements. With excellent wettability and film-forming properties, it forms a protective layer on metal surfaces, effectively blocking moisture contact. This product does not adversely affect the gloss of the surface, making it suitable for black metal surfaces as well. Additionally, AQUACER 1062 is very easy to use and can be applied to metal surfaces through various methods such as dip coating, spray coating, or spin coating, and can be easily removed under alkaline conditions.

Technical Data

Ethylene-acrylic acid (EAA) copolymer wax emulsion

Non-volatile matter (60 minutes, 125 ℃): 22%

Carrier: Water

Melting point: 95°C

pH value: 9

Advantage

Excellent corrosion protection

Good metal adhesion

Exhibits excellent wettability and film-forming properties on metal surfaces.

Easy to apply in construction

Suitable for a wide range of metal surfaces (such as steel, nickel, aluminum, non-ferrous metals), and also suitable for ferrous metals.

It can be mixed with water in any proportion under conditions where the pH value is above 8.5.

Adjusting viscosity can regulate the dry film thickness.

Under alkaline conditions, it can be easily removed.

It can be used in conjunction with silicates or other resins, or used alone.

Summary

AQUACER 1062 is recommended for electroplating applications and metal surface treatment. When applied to metal surfaces, AQUACER 1062 forms a protective film with good adhesion to the metal surface, effectively preventing corrosion. It is particularly suitable for galvanized steel (passivated or non-passivated) as well as non-galvanized steel, nickel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous metals.

The additive can be mixed with water in any proportion under conditions where the pH value is above 8.5. By adding silicates or common resin emulsions such as acrylic emulsions, styrene-acrylic emulsions, or polyurethane emulsions, the anti-rust performance of metal sheets treated with AQUACER 1062 can be significantly enhanced.

In addition, by adjusting the viscosity, the thickness of the dry film can be controlled. The protective film formed by AQUACER 1062 can be easily removed under alkaline conditions.
