Corrosion Passivator
Stops corrosion without blasting
nC Corrosion Passivator offers an effective solution for corroded surfaces with minimal pre-treatment required, reducing maintenance costs and downtime. Stop corrosion without the need for blasting with direct-to-rust solutions, available in both soft and hard coat variants, suitable for application on both dry and damp surfaces.
nC Corrosion Passivator applications
Confined spaces: Ballast tanks, DB/WT, voids and peaks
For areas that are difficult to access, we developed Corrosion Passivator – Fluid. This soft coat provides a quick and effective solution with minimal pre-treatment. The surface remains greasy for several months.
PROJECTS: HEBO – ballast tanks HEBO Lift 8 | MSG – Babetta
PRODUCT: Corrosion Passivator – Fluid
Pipes
Blasting or sanding pipes is difficult and time consuming and can be prohibited because of specific cargo or regulations. With Corrosion Passivator, corroded pipes and pipe supports can be treated direct-over-rust with long lasting results.

Reduce operational costs and lower your environmental footprint
Direct-to-rust solutions
Stop corrosion without the need for blasting with direct-to-rust solutions. Minimal pre-treatment is required. High-pressure washing (500 bar) is sufficient.
For both dry and damp surfaces
nC Corrosion Passivator is available in both soft and hard coat variants, suitable for application on both dry and damp surfaces.
Proven and applied since 2005.
Applied and recommended by professional shipping and maintenance companies.
Technology
Not a coating but a metal treatment
While the application process may resemble that of traditional coatings, Corrosion Passivator technology goes a step further by fundamentally altering the metal itself, effectively preventing corrosion for up to 25 years. Unlike traditional coatings, that merely shield metal from corrosive influences by forming a barrier, Corrosion Passivator makes the metal itself immune to corrosion.
How it works
nC Corrosion Passivator is a technique in which particles form an electron pair with the metal, disrupting the bond between metal and oxygen (Fe2O3), commonly known as corrosion. This effectively halts the active corrosion process.
The connection is established through a sol-gel technique, intervening at the molecular level. The technique is applicable to both corroded and blasted metal surfaces and can be easily applied through brushing, rolling, spraying or by floating.
