Akzo Nobel Aerospace Coatings 1 Corrosion results Airbus structural systems. System 1: Conventional solvent based chromated primer + Low solids PUR topcoat System 2: Water based chromated primer + Water based epoxy topcoat. System 3: Water based chromate-free primer + Water based epoxy topcoat. CAA and TSA: 2000 h. Filiform CSP and SB: 1000 h. Filiform Slide 2 Akzo Nobel Aerospace Coatings 2 Filiform corrosion results Boeing exterior system on different alloys and Boegel pretreatment. CF-System: High solids chromate-free epoxy-amine primer + HS PUR Topcoat. Cr.-System: High solids chromated epoxy-amine primer + HS PUR Topcoat. Boeing requirements: 720 hours 2024T3 - max. 0.125 inch / 3.2 mm. 7075T6 - max. 0.35 inch / 8.9 mm Slide 3 Akzo Nobel Aerospace Coatings 3 Chromate-free BMS 10-72 system on different alloys. 2024T3 + Boegel 7075T6 + Boegel Slide 4 Akzo Nobel Aerospace Coatings 4 Chromate BMS 10-72 system on different alloys. 2024T3 + Boegel 7075T6 + Boegel Slide 5 Akzo Nobel Aerospace Coatings 5 NSS exposure to BMS 10-72 of different systems.

Chromate-free primer Chromate primer 1000 hours exposure of BMS 10-72 system on 2024T3 clad. Slide 9 Akzo Nobel Aerospace Coatings 9 Conclusions. Airbus structural primer / system corrosion requirements: -On TSA pretreatment, CF Primer technology is still slightly outside the requirements. Boeing exterior system corrosion requirements: -On Boegel pretreatment the CF Primer topcoat technology is able to meet the requirements. AMS 3095 Maintenance system corrosion requirements: -The current CF primer technology is not yet able to meet the high requirements on Scotch Brite solvent cleaned bare 2024T3. The aluminium pretreatment is a very important factor in the coating adhesion and corrosion protection of the primer / system.
