Termarust Technologies presents
Termarust HRCSA: Chemically Active Barrier Coating.
Exclusive Feature: THE BEST PENETRANT IN THE JOINT.
Termarust HRCSA chemically stops active corrosion - guaranteed.
Traditional hard film form paint systems do not provide the required chemistry and flexibility to stop active crevice corrosion from rust bleeding long term.

Crevice corrosion issue 1: Corroded in place steel structures move. Traditional coating systems low molecular weight (LMWH) penetrants cure hard then micro-crack inside the connections alllowing the corrosion cycle to continue.
Crevice corrosion issue 2: Corrosive contaminates bond ionically and can only be fully mitigated with soluble salt removers.
Termarust HRCSA chemically neutralizes active corrosion, injects lubricity between moving parts and melds with a chemically compatible elastomeric coating.
All in place steel structures (Hydro towers, wire ropes, bridges, storage tanks, cranes and elevators, penstocks, beam end and bearings), or Fe type, all structures flex under load (traffic, snow, rain, etc.). Traditional paint systems do not have the chemistry to solve this problem. Termarust HRCSA chemically stops crevice corrosion preventing crevice corrosion for decades.
The Hidden Shortcoming of Traditional Film Formers on in Place Corroded Structures.
- Low Molecular Weight Penetrants (LMWH) can microcrack inside connections thereby allowing moisture and harmful elements to continue the corrosion process.
- Embrace field proven solutions like chemically active HRCSA can provide the robust defense these structures need to withstand the test of time.
Surface Preparation Requirements
- SSPC SP WJ4 high pressure water cleaning with soluble salt remover additive.
- Wire, abrasive or hand tool cleaning equipment for removing black oxides from accessible surfaces.
- Paint feathering disk.
- HRCSA Coating Application Requirements
Materials Application Equipment.
- Airless sprayer, brush, roller. [Single coat, single component materails.]
- Pressure applicator for infusion HRCSA penetrant into pack rust or open connections.
HRCSA Points of Difference?
- Unlike LMWH, HRCSA's Penetrant remain active inside flushed and salt mitigated open or pack-rusted connections.
- Unlike LMWH, HRCSA Penetrant is designed to actively neutralize acids, displace moisture and scavenge oxygen inside the connection. HRCSA Penetrant remains active and does not cure or harden. Instead, it forms a monomolecular layer of cations on the steel substrate.
- HRCSA Penetrant and HRCSA topcoat are purposely designed to chemically meld to form an elastomeric seal overtop the crevice opening. This seal remains flexible without microcracking.
- Stand alone, HRCSA self priming topcoat serves as a single component, single coat, low surface energy overcoat field proven to provide decades of barrier protection on overcoated and direct to steel applications.
You, Me, We Specifications.
- You Specifications: Prescribed Based Specifications based on generic QPL.
- Me Specifications: Performance based specifications where the contractor is involved in deciding which coating his/her experience would perform the best within the conditions of the application.
- We Specifications: Solution Based Specification where owner, contractor and supplier work together to develop a solution-based specification as pertains to the specific site condition. Considerations could include:
- Field proven, long term structure critical corrosion control.
- Access windows (liquidated damages).
- Budget constraints
