Works at low temperatures

It is the latest addition to Henkel’s new generation, low-temperature functional coatings that cut energy costs and protect the environment without compromising the quality of finish or corrosion resistance of the end product.

BONDERITE M-NT 41040 operates successfully at low temperature or even at room temperature.  This dramatically lowers energy costs over the course of the process, providing a viable and economical alternative to high temperature treatments such as iron phosphate (FePhos). The environmental impact of this product is further reduced by the absence of phosphates and any toxic heavy metals.

The unique formula of this product and its ability to work in combination with the cleaning booster, BONDERITE C-AD 10004, not only ensures smooth and consistent cleaning but also a lighter Zirconium conversion layer which is an excellent anchorage base for liquid, powdered and electrophoretic paints.  

Metal products such as radiators and electrical enclosures undergoing treatment with this product are also far less prone to flash-rusting - even during line stops. Additionally, the low temperature operation reduces the cost and effort of maintaining the line and results in extremely low etching rates.  This, in turn, leads to extremely slow sludge accumulation.

As BONDERITE M-NT 41040 is designed as a 1-pack product, it simplifies the treatment process and minimises the amount of handling required.  And mainly thanks to its phosphate-free formula, this new cleaner/coater has a low impact on chemical oxygen demand (COD) of discharged water, one of the primary indicators of how re-released water impacts local aquatic life.
