Professionals across the industry know the numerous advantages of 3M™ Aerospace. Enabling efficiencies, reducing process times and lowering aircraft weight is how we execute our never-ending mission to offer best-in-class adhesives, sealants, surface protection products and composite resins that effectively reduce costs on multiple fronts. Learn More about 3M™ Surface Pre-Treatment AC-130-2 (PDF, 582.82 KB)ģM is proud to partner with organizations across the spectrum of aerospace and related industries.

Both water-based and non-chromate, 3M AC-130-2 is your environmentally responsible alternative to traditional surface preparation for adhesive bonding.

When you add it all up, 3M Surface Pre-Treatment AC-130-2 offers significant water use reduction and a total cost savings when compared to conventional processes. In order to bring surface preparation processes into the 21st century, we created an environmentally responsible alternative to traditional, high cost, hazardous waste generating materials. Our water-based sol-gel system will enhance adhesion between aluminum alloys, steel, titanium and composites and help reduce overall operating costs.Įffectiveness, Cost Reduction, and Sustainability Now, we can offer a high-performance surface pre-treatment that delivers equivalent performance to PAA - in less time. Common processes such as phosphoric acid anodizing (PAA) or sulfuric acid-sodium dichromate etchings involve hazardous materials and can be difficult to perform in the field. While traditional processes may produce acceptable results, they can also produce unacceptable amounts of hazardous waste. Today's coating systems have high performance requirements for surface preparation. A More Sustainable Solution for Modern Coating Systems
