ZINC SYSTEMS

Pavco, Warrensville

Heights, Ohio

Pavco introduces two new zinc systems to the industry. For alkaline zinc, Merlin is a nonaldehyde-based system, which is compatible with either NaOH or KOH electrolytes. Merlin eliminates kick out and has purifier incorporated directly into the system itself. The SmartZinc is a new chloride system that allows current levels to be raised to levels that were previously considered impossible without burning. These advantages together allow production to be increased by 30 to 50%. Circle 158 on reader information
