P-laser deposed a patent on the chromium6 paint removal for industrial applications in 2023. Chromium6 is historically present in a lot of old paints to protect steel constructions. Our team developed a laser cleaning system with specific tuned light beam caracteristics to reduce chromium6 to his non-dangerous chromium3 nature. Our pulsed laser beam is generating a photocatalytic reaction in the uv-range under IR pulsed energy regime.
Seen the diversity of paints, every paint has to be checked to tailor tuned with the right amount of energy fluence.
