A chromate-free metal pretreatment and a chromate-free exterior decorative primer from PPG Industries' aerospace coatings group are now standard on Boeing Next-Generation 737 production airplanes.
“After many years of successful testing and field evaluations, Boeing has selected Desoprime CF/CA 7502 primer as standard for Boeing Next-Generation 737 production aircraft,” said Kevin Brooks, PPG Aerospace global segment manager for original-equipment coatings. “PPG shares the ongoing commitment to sustainability of Boeing and airlines, providing ‘green’ coating products that offer the necessary and desirable application, aesthetic and performance benefits.”
Brooks said airlines are also requesting Desoprime CF/CA 7502 primer with a non-chromated pretreatment for Boeing 767 and 777 widebodies.
