Research Summary

Direct-to-Metal (DTM) coatings are specialized protective coatings formulated to be applied directly onto metal surfaces without the need for a separate primer. These coatings provide excellent adhesion, corrosion resistance, and durability, simplifying the painting process by eliminating multiple layers. DTMs are designed to protect metal surfaces from environmental factors such as moisture, chemicals, and UV radiation, making them ideal for use in industrial, automotive, and construction applications. They come in various formulations, including acrylics, epoxies, and polyurethanes, and are often used on structures like bridges, pipelines, and equipment, where quick and effective protection is essential. By combining the functions of a primer and a topcoat, DTM coatings offer cost-effective and efficient solutions for maintaining and extending the life of metal assets.
