Gerdau Graphene, a nanotechnology company, announced the availability of NanoCORR Shield, the newest product from its G2D NanoCORR line of anti-corrosion paints and coatings additives. 

Developed with Gerdau Graphene’s exclusive G2D technology, NanoCORR Shield is a graphene-enhanced chemical additive designed to increase the corrosion resistance of solvent-based paints and coatings. NanoCORR Shield has demonstrated a 30-70% increase in corrosion resistance when subjected to salt spray testing.

The addition of a small amount of specially-developed graphene into paints and coatings allows for an increase in the barrier effect against corrosive elements such as water, oxygen and chlorides. In addition, NanoCORR reduces paint consumption by reducing the nominal thickness of the coating while maintaining the paint or coatings’ other characteristics and performance properties.

“G2D NanoCORR Shield was designed to help producers deliver ultra-high performance paint and coating products while reducing the use of non-sustainable inputs such as heavy metals,” says Valdirene Peressinotto, Executive and Innovation Director at Gerdau Graphene. “This product joins our expanding portfolio of additives serving the paints and coatings market and underscores our commitment to developing innovative, sustainable graphene-based solutions for this industry.”
