Acid Stripping

SpeedMask® light curing masking resins provide reliable surface protection of intricate and complex configurations during the acid-stripping process to remove coatings in the overhaul and repair of turbine components.

SpeedMask masking resins have been formulated to withstand soaking in hot acid without permeation or seepage under the mask. When properly cured, the resins provide superior surface protection from chemical processing of nickel super alloys, steel, and titanium.

 

The temporary maskants will hold up to the surface preparation of grit blasting, which may be required, prior to or in combination with the hot acid soak. SpeedMask masking resins can tolerate most acid soaks such as Hydrochloric (HCl), Nitric (HNO3), Acetic (CH3COOH), Phosphoric (H3PO4), Hydrofluoric (HF), or various combinations of the acids.

  • Cures in seconds enabling faster processing, greater output, and lower processing costs
  • Residue-free removal
  • Applied by spraying, dipping, or coating

Anodizing

SpeedMask® light curing masking resins provide superior surface protection during the anodizing of turbine and other metal components, orthopaedic implants, surgical instruments, and other medical devices.

SpeedMask masking resins have been formulated with more chemical resistance for better surface protection from the strong acids used in the anodizing process. The cured maskant protects the substrate surface while the oxide layer of coating (which is designed to change the microscopic texture of the component surface) is being applied.

 

SpeedMask masking resins can tolerate most Type I (Chromic Acid), Type II (Sulfuric Acid), or Type III (Hardcoat) anodizing processes.

  • Cures in seconds enabling faster processing, greater output, and lower processing costs
  • Residue-free removal
  • Applied by spraying, dipping, or coating

Chemical Milling

SpeedMask® masking resins provide superior surface protection during the chemical milling of turbine and other metal components, orthopaedic implants, surgical instruments, and other medical devices.

SpeedMask masking resins have been formulated with enhanced chemical resistance for reliable protection from strong acids and alkalis used in dissolving metal substrates during chemical milling. SpeedMask 727-BT can be trimmed to provide defined edge boundaries and accommodate the most complex and intricate components while still providing excellent protection with no leakage.

 

A selection of the best SpeedMask masking resins were developed to withstand typical Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) and Potassium Hydroxide (KOH) solutions used for the chemical milling of aluminum components.

  • Cures in seconds enabling faster processing, greater output, and lower processing costs
  • Residue-free removal
  • Applied by spraying, dipping, or coating

Plating

SpeedMask® light curing masking resins provide superior surface protection of turbine and other metal components, orthopaedic implants, surgical instruments, and other medical devices during various plating processes.

SpeedMask masking resins have been formulated with chemical and heat resistance to protect masked areas during plating processes where particles are deposited onto conductive surfaces. These resins are able to withstand the most common plating processes such as Electroless Nickel (Ni), Platinum (Pt), Chrome (Cr), Gold (Au), Silver (Ag), and Copper (Cu).

 

SpeedMask temporary masking resins are available in low, moderate, and high levels of adhesion to accommodate the various operating temperatures of plating baths. The higher the temperature of a plating process, the higher the maskant adhesion will need to be. The higher the pH of a plating mask, the greater the need for a chemical-resistant maskant.

  • Cures in seconds enabling faster processing, greater output, and lower processing costs
  • Residue-free removal
  • Applied by spraying, dipping, or coating
