CORROSIONA SIMPLE EXPLANATION : Corrosion simply stated is a natural phenomenon which destroys most metals by either a chemical or electrochemical reaction.
The metal is converted, usually with the help of an electrolyte, into a stable metallic compound such as an oxide, hydroxide or sulfate.
The rate at which the metal corrodes depends greatly on the environment they are exposed to, and the amount of preventitive maintenance they recieve.
Metals that are exposed to marine atmospheres, moisture, tropical temperatures and industrial chemical atmospheres have the highest rate of corrosion.
The tendancy of metals to corrode creates a serious problem in the area of aircraft operation
ACF-50 ANTI-CORROSION FORMULAHOW IT WORKS : ACF-50 Anti-Corrosion Formula is astate of the art, anti-corrosion lubricant compound, specifically designed for the Aero Space indusrty.
It is an ultra Thin Fluid Film Compund (TFFC) that actively treats metal using advanced polar bonding technology.
As seen from the diagrams, ACF-50's synthetic inhibitors and active chemisrty penetrates through the oxide deposits (white powder) to the base of the corrosion cell where it emulsifies, encapsulates and then lifts the electrolyte away from the metal surface.
ACF-50 then allows this moisture to evaporate while providing an atmospheric barrier that prevents more moisture contact.
With the electrolyte removed the corrosion process is halted.
ACF-50 actively penetrates and "creeps" into the tightest seams, lap joints, micro cracks and around rivet heads, displacing moisture and other corrosive fluids (orange juice, coke, coffee, salt water) in these corrosive prone areas.
ACF-50's thinfilm acts like an "OFF SWITCH" for corrosion, remaining effective for up to 24 months.
