Chemical Corrosion Problems

Tier 3 & Tier 4 EPA regulations have changed the way Diesel engines are being designed in the automotive industry. One major byproduct of these changes is a highly corrosive gas that corrodes almost any metal, including exotics.

Proven solutions to this corrosive problem

Chemical corrosion due to exhaust gas condensation is the main problem affecting the regeneration and recirculation systems side of things.
Additional excessive weight, reduced performance, and cost, due to thicker components used to combat chemical corrosion issues caused by the byproducts of the new EPA standards.

Chemical Corrosion Coating Solutions

With the new EPA regulations in place, it has resulted in a very corrosive byproduct of the emission components affecting the regeneration systems. These chemicals are so corrosive that they can eat through any metal, even the most exotic and costly. DECC brings years of experience in coating services to help combating these corrosion issues, while reducing cost, weight, and increasing performance of the engine and fuel mileage.

Currently, these types of issues are being combated by thicker exhaust components (which add weight and cost, while reducing fuel economy, horse power, and overall engine performance). We can help you save cost and increase performance through our coating applications.

A quick note about us: Through the use of corrosion protective coatings, we have successfully resolved corrosion issues that were direct causes of the acid byproducts, generated by modifications necessary for the new EPA standards, for a major diesel OEM. This success story is directly linked to the regenerative systems of Tier 3 (On Highway Engines), and now Tier 4 (Off Road) engines.
