MM31® – Advanced Water-Based Conversion Coating

MM31® is a water-based transfer and passivation layering chemical, free from hazard symbols , safe, and environmentally friendly.
Main features:
- Removes oil and creates a smooth finish in one step.
- Increases adhesion for both powder coatings and wet paints.
- Superior protection against:
- Surface rust on steel
- White rust on the zinc surface
- Corrosion on aluminum
- Allows for long-term intermediate storage without loss of quality.
MM31® complies with strict international standards: FROSIO, NACE, GSB, Qualicoat, Qualisteelcoat
In addition, MM31® helps eliminate solvents in the process, contributing to a safer working environment and reducing employee exposure to hazardous chemicals.
This product duo helps businesses optimize processes, protect the environment, and improve surface quality in an effective, safe, and sustainable solution.

In the metal surface treatment industry, the quality of the paint layer depends heavily on the pre-treatment process. If the surface is not thoroughly cleaned or its corrosion resistance is not ensured, the paint layer will easily peel, blister, and have a reduced lifespan.
Starter MM & MM31® offers a modern cleaning, degreasing, conversion, and passivation process that helps businesses:
- Effectively cleans oxides, welding slag, and light rolling scale.
- Degreases and creates a conversion layer in just one step.
- Increases adhesion for powder coatings and wet coatings.
- Protects steel, zinc, and aluminum from corrosion.
- Reduces water, energy, and wastewater treatment costs.
- Contains no toxic solvents and is operator-friendly.
- Supports businesses towards Green Deal goals and sustainable production.
In particular, MM31® is a water-based technology, free from hazardous material markings, and meets international standards such as FROSIO, NACE, GSB, Qualicoat, and Qualisteelcoat .

1. Non-Chrome Passivation Solution
Non-Chrome Passivation (Chrome-free Passivation) is a technology that creates a chemical conversion layer on metal surfaces without using any chromium compounds . This protective layer increases corrosion resistance, reduces white rust, and improves surface quality before machining or painting . The product contains absolutely no hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) or any other form of chromium, fully complying with international environmental standards such as RoHS and REACH.
2. Passivation Of Chrome III (Cr3+)
PrimeCoat® Z80x Series is a line of chemicals developed using Phosphate/Silane technology to provide high corrosion protection while meeting the trend of environmentally friendly production. PrimeCoat® Z80x is developed to replace passivation systems using Chromium VI (Cr⁶⁺), helping businesses transition to chrome-free technology while maintaining effective surface protection and corrosion resistance in a wide range of industrial applications.
3. Anti-Fingerprint Coating (TOC)
PrimeCoat® Z908 VH is a passivation chemical that, when applied at concentrations above 50%, can function as a thin organic coating (TOC). It is chrome-free, water-based, and developed using phosphate and silane technology. The product is completely free of hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) or any other form of chromium, fully complying with international environmental standards such as RoHS and REACH.
4. Pre-treatment Chemicals
PrimeCoat® A109 is a water-based, chrome-free metal surface pretreatment chemical manufactured using advanced nanotechnology. It is an effective alternative to traditional chromate pretreatment systems, specifically developed for aluminum coils and cold-rolled steel. The product can replace traditional non-washing chromate pretreatment systems while still ensuring the necessary corrosion protection and adhesion to metal surfaces.
5. Solvent-Replacing Cleaning Agents
MM31® was developed to optimize the entire surface treatment process before and after mechanical machining. After treatment with MM31®, the metal surface is not only completely clean but also forms a conversion coating that offers many benefits such as: increased paint adhesion, resulting in better paint bonding to the metal substrate; reduced peeling during use; improved corrosion resistance, providing better protection against moisture and harsh environments; and reduced rust.
