Our cutting-edge laboratories and dedicated exposure sites at the Aurora Center for Extreme Weather Materials—a specialized division focused on asset performance in severe weather conditions—ensure your solutions meet rigorous specifications. We back this up with comprehensive ASTM testing, including evaluations following SAE G8 (Coatings Committee) and SAE G9 (Sealants Committee) protocols.
Products
Sustainable UAS Protection
Elinor Coatings provides a diverse range of products engineered to meet stringent industry specifications. Our offerings focus on safer, high-performance solutions, notably utilizing chromate-free materials and actively working to remove isocyanates, VOCs, and other toxins from the surface protection process in order to protect applicators, technicians, recyclers, and the environment.
PrimoSeal
Peelable Preservation
Coating
Waterborne, one-component, low VOC, UV-resistant polyurethane/acrylic hybrid pigmented coating system. It is designed for limiting aircraft exposure to environmental damage and is easily removable from a wide range of substrates by peeling after full cure, leaving no residue.
Temporary Anti-Ice
Ice-Prevention for Metals or Composites
Temporary Anti-Ice is a one-component, bio-based, fast-drying, temporary coating that helps prevent ice and frost buildup on any exposed surfaces. Ideal for drones, aircraft, wind turbines, metal structures, and industrial equipment, it can be applied in the field. Reapply as needed after weather exposure or cleaning.
Permanent Anti-Ice
Chrome-Free Anti-Corrosion Primer for Aircraft Components
Permanent Anti-Ice is a two-component, permanent anti-icing coating system designed to help prevent ice and frost buildup on exposed surfaces. Suitable for drones, aircraft, wind turbines, metal structures, and industrial equipment, it can be applied directly in the field. The coating reduces the need for manual ice removal by significantly lowering ice adhesive strength compared to traditional coating systems. It also offers high fluid resistance for long‑lasting performance.
