Amparmor® 1000 is a uniquely engineered microcapsule containing a patented blend of healing agent based on silicone-based resins, co-crosslinking agents/enhancers and adhesion promoters. These microcapsules are designed for coating applications where coating self-healing is needed for extended coating durability. AMPARMOR® 1000 is recommended for use in liquid solvent-based, water-based resins and powder coatings, and is compatible with most coating resin types including epoxy, polyester, polyurethane and acrylic systems.

- Performance Evaluation
Coating performance enhancements obtained through the use of AMPARMOR® 100 self-healing additive will be dependent on both the add rate and base coating native performance. In an optimized coating formulation, addition of as little as 2.5 wt% can result in dramatic improvements in both corrosion resistance (on metal substrates) and weather or mechanically induced adhesion loss (on metal and non-metal substrates). Maximum performance is typically obtained at an add rate of 10 wt%.

- Epoxy Sealant
- Coating Thickness Guide
AMPARMOR® 1000 is recommended for coatings and resins that are applied at dry film thicknesses of at least 4-5 times the average particle size of the additive.
