Our solution for permanent protection
Korroprimer is a priming powder
in 2-layer system with ultimate anti-corrosive effect.
A cost effective alternative
to galvanising, the anti-corrosion coating powder is based on epoxy resin designed for iron and steel substrates that can
also be used for priming chromatised aluminium to protect from filliform corrosion. This provides
an additional and special protective effect for use in the vicinity of the sea and in aggressive industrial climates.
A certified high performance anti-corrosive coating system. |

IGP-KORROPRIMER 1002
Product benefits
• good mechanical
properties
• excellent resistance to chemicals
• optimum adhesive power
• no toxic heavy metals
(e.g. zinc)
• variable over-coating (coating powder, painting, wet varnishing)
• economical in terms of
long service life and risk minimisation
Applications
• blasted steel (e.g. posts,
railings, handrails, parking meters)
• zinc-plated, chromatised steel (e.g. props of traffic guidance systems and
anti-noise walls)
• zinc-plated, blasted to reduce moisture diffusion
• machined zincor sheet metal for
protecting the non-zincplated spots and for covering the edges
• steel sheet (e.g. for occasional interior moisture
exposure, as primer for skeleton structures)

Product description
IGP-Korroprimer 1002 is an anti-corrosion coating powder based on epoxy
resin, designed for iron and steel substrates. The product can also be used for priming chromatised aluminium to protect from
filliform corrosion. This provides an additional and special protective effect for use in the vicinity of the sea and in aggressive
industrial climates.
Technical specifications
Colour shades: Two shades are available:
light grey, RAL 7035 and battleship grey, RAL 7043. The surface is matt and smooth-running.
How corrosion develops
DIN defines corrosion as “the destruction of metals by chemical or electrochemical reactions with their environment”.
This “environment” can be the atmosphere,salt water or river water. The best-known example for corrosion is
rusting iron. This is a complicated chemical reaction where iron interacts with oxygen and water to form iron hydroxide hydrate.
This oxide is a solid which grows on the metal as a voluminous and porous coating as the reaction corrosion progresses and
which impairs properties such as load-bearing capacity.
Protection from corrosion
It
is estimated that corrosion causes an annual damage going in the billions (approx. 3.5% of the gross national product). To
avoid these effects and to protect steel and steel constructions, organic coating systems are applied. For these requirements,
IGP offers an extraordinary and highly effective two-layer powder varnish coating system, consisting of a corrosion-retarding
and adhesion-enhancing epoxy primer coat, the IGP-KORRO PRIMER 1002, and a weather-proof and UV-resistant powder coating such
as:
• IGP-DURA®face 52, 58, 80
• IGP-HWF 3001, highly weather-resistant
• IGP-DURA®cryl
40
• IGP-PFC 91 with “30-year weathering protection”
