Eco-Friendly Anticorrosion Primers with the Novinox ACE Range from SNCZ
In today's world, the demand for eco-friendly corrosion protection solutions is greater than ever. We are pleased to present an innovative range of eco-friendly zinc phosphate-based pigments: Novinox ACE products from Nordmann partner SNCZ, the world's leading manufacturer of anticorrosion pigments and our Co-Exhibitor at the ECS 2025. These pigments, based on the patented ACE technology, offer high performance and are compatible with both, solvent-based and water-based formulations.
Formulating an eco-friendly anticorrosion primer
SNCZ, the world leading manufacturer of anticorrosion pigments, is dedicated to offering high performing and Eco-Friendly solutions.
When it comes to formulating an eco-friendly waterborne anticorrosion primer, the anticorrosive pigment is very often the last component being classified as eco-toxic. In the past, in order to avoid the classification, the only choice a formulator had, was to choose among Zinc free pigments. Zinc free pigments are less versatile and lower performing than Zinc phosphate based pigments.
Based on the patented ‘ACE technology’, SNCZ has developed a unique range of Eco-friendly Zinc phosphate based pigments for most needs:

The eco-friendly anticorrosion pigments offer the same corrosion protection as the standard pigments.

Key benefits of SNCZ eco-friendly pigments:
- highly compatible with SB and WB formulations
- allow the formulation of high performance and eco-Friendly paints
- not subjected to restrictions for transportation nor storage limitation.
NOVINOX ePAZ will be introduced at ECS 2015 during a product presentation session.

NECOWELTM 790 – A new waterborne polyester polyol for 2K PU-coatings
The use of waterborne 2K polyurethane coatings play a crucial role especially in ACE-applications as they have to protect the coated substrate mainly from corrosion, abrasion and UV-exposure. Among crucial factors like easy and safe application properties, reproducibility and defect-free surface finishes, the ecological impact of those coatings is gaining importance from year to year.

Driving surface finish innovation with multifunctional additives
Formulators need to consider the limitations of traditional silica-based matting agents and educate themselves on the latest technologies available in the market, like Honeywell NduroMatt™—a polymer-based multi-functional additive. Nordmann partner Honeywell’s NduroMatt solves various challenges associated with silica-based matting and offers unique benefits that formulators seek in a new matting agent or surface improvement additive.
