BR®

Next generation of chromated and non-chromate corrosion inhibiting bonding primers

The aerospace standard solvent and water based bonding primers

Solvay BR 179 spray aerospace

Designed to improve the adhesion of materials to a substrate 

In extreme-demand environments, a range of metal and composite parts are used to achieve high performance in the application.

BR® bonding primers are proven to improve their adhesion while inhibiting degradation to provide long-term durability for aerospace applications.

Providing maximum environmental resistance and bond line durability

And that makes them the industry standard for bonding primers. They are also highly effective in use as protective coatings outside bonded areas. 

 

Bonding primers designed to answer Aerospace specific needs

Allowing processing flexibility and easier manufacturing processes

By providing excellent film formation and a range of curing windows and out times, BR® products can ease manufacturing and aid processing flexibility. They also integrate well with a wide variety of adhesive systems.

Better hydrolytic stability and less oxidation

BR® primers improve hydrolytic stability at the adhesive-to-metal interface and protects prepared surfaces from further oxidation, moisture and oxygen.

A path to more sustainable primers, including non-chromate and water based bonding solutions

Our portfolio also includes a family of water-based primer that performs comparable to solvent-based systems while containing fewer or no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for safer application.
