The International Copper Assn. (ICA) says electrophoretic coatings, used to protect many automotive components, have shown encouraging results in corrosion tests on radiators in Sweden. Researchers estimate a 10-year increase in the life of copper/brass radiators. The E-coat itself is water-based and the process is said to be environmentally friendly.
