Epoxy Resin Based System

Epoxy coatings are used in industrial and marine settings where their toughness and chemical resistance give high performance protection.

Examples

British Rail Tank

blast cleaned to SA 2½
1st coat: a high-build, 2-pack, epoxy zinc phosphate primer/build coat – an anti-corrosive protection of carbon steel surfaces prepared by abrasive cleaning applied to 250 microns dft to produce both primer and build coat in one single coat – for use on internal and external exposed conditions including offshore and petrochemical and sub-sea environments
2nd coat: a high-performance, fast-drying, acrylic urethane gloss finish to 75 microns dft

Ejector Assembly

blast cleaned to SA 2½
1st coat: a two-component epoxy anti-corrosive primer pigmented with zinc phosphate
2nd coat: a high-build, two-component epoxy, pigmented with micaceus iron oxide for enhanced corrosion resistance and improved overcoating properties after ageing
3rd coat: a quick-drying, two-component epoxy

Pulp and Paper

blast cleaned to SA 2½
1st coat: a 2-pack, epoxy, zinc-rich, anti-corrosive primer
2nd coat: a 2-pack, epoxy, high-build undercoat – widely approved for the treatment of offshore structures
3rd coat: a 2-pack, isocyanate-free, acrylic, epoxy-resin, gloss finish

De-compression Chamber

blast cleaned internally and externally to SA 2½
1st inside coat: a two-component, metallic, zinc-rich, epoxy primer – a high performance primer to give maximum protection as part of any anti-corrosive coating system for aggressive environments including those found on off-shore structures, petrochemical facilities, pulp and paper plants, bridges and power plants
2nd inside coat: a high-build, high-performance, two-component, epoxy finish with excellent chemical and abrasion resistance
1st outside coat: a fast-set, low temperature cure high-build epoxy zinc phosphate primer
2nd outside coat: a two-component, aliphatic polyurethane gloss finish
