Abstract
A new multifunctional material was developed to provide corrosion protection, anti-chip protection and vibration damping equal to or better than the existing materials today. This multifunctional coating, applied robotically or manually with airless spray equipment, is a one component system and provides the following characteristics: high vibration damping, low viscosity-easy to process, low shrinkage-no small molecules given off, no solvents, excellent adhesion to oily steel and electrocoat, excellent stone-chip resistance, high stiffness and low density. This paper describes the application and performance benefits of utilizing this sprayable, chip-resistance damper.
