Ua ʻike pinepine mākou i ka ʻike hewa ʻole e pili ana i nā mea e pili ana i ke kila Corten, i hoʻomaopopo ʻia ʻo ia ka mea ʻokoʻa o kā mākou hana āpau. ʻOi aku ka huikau me ka mea hiki ʻole ke ʻokoʻa mai kēia kila nani, ʻo ia hoʻi nā mea thermoplastic a i ʻole ka hao maʻalahi pū kekahi. Ma o kēia ʻatikala e kōkua mākou iā ʻoe, i ka hope, e hoʻokaʻawale i ke kila Corten mai nā hoʻohālike, e kōkua iā ʻoe e koho i nā mea kūpono e like me kāu mau pono, a pale i ka pau ʻole o ke kālā.
ʻO kekahi o nā hiʻohiʻona nui o Corten kona ʻano waiwai. ʻO ka ʻike ʻole a me ka hoʻopā ʻana o kēia mea he ʻokoʻa a hiki i nā manawa he nui ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia. Inā mai kahi hiʻohiʻona, ma o ka pena kiʻi nui loa, hiki ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia ka hopena.
Loaʻa i ka Polypropylene kēia palena. ʻOi aku ka māmā ma mua o Corten, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma kekahi mau kūlana.
ʻO ka polypropylene kahi mea thermoplastic a no laila maʻalahi loa a hoʻohana pinepine ʻia i nā hale ʻaina.
ʻO ka "Corten effect" ʻaʻole ia he pena wale nō, akā he mea i uhi ʻia me kahi ʻāpana lahilahi o ka metala pena me ka hopena Corten.
Ua loaʻa i kekahi mau makahiki ma Iapana kahi lāʻau lapaʻau patination no ke kila. E hana like ia me ka aila patination no ke kēpau i mea e hiki ai i ka papa oxide paʻa ke hana ma lalo o kahi uhi pale e pale ai i nā ʻano ʻino o ka ʻili. ʻAʻole like me ka ʻaila patination, ʻaʻole ʻoluʻolu ka hopena o ka wā pōkole a me ka hopena i nā mea i ʻike ʻia i keʻokeʻo. Holo mālie ka uhi ʻana no nā makahiki a hiki i ka ʻike ʻia ʻana o kahi ʻili paina i hana maikaʻi ʻia.
ʻO ke kila Corten he kila kila i haku ʻia me ka phosphorus, keleawe, nickel, silicon, a me chromium e hopena i ka hoʻokumu ʻia ʻana o kahi ʻōpala pale pale "patina" ma lalo o kahi kaiapuni corrosive. Ke pale nei kēia ʻāpana pale i ka corrosion a me ka hōʻino hou ʻana o ke kila. ·
Ke hoʻomaka ʻia ke kaʻina hana ʻōleʻa i ke kila hoʻoheheʻe ʻana, hana nā mea hoʻohui i kahi papa paʻa i kapa ʻia ʻo ka patina e pili ana i ka metala kumu.
Ke hoʻohālikelike ʻia me nā papa ʻōpala i hoʻokumu ʻia i nā ʻano kila hoʻolālā ʻē aʻe, ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka patina. Hoʻoulu a hoʻoulu hou kēia papa pale me ka wā a ke keʻakeʻa nei i ka loaʻa ʻana o ka oxygen, ka wai, a me nā mea haumia.
