Properties

The paint film is tenacious and abrasion resistant, provided with excellent

adhesive and impact resistant ability;

With good oil resistant and solvent resistant ability;

With excellent saltfog resistant and water resistant ability;

Of extremely good anticorrosion property, suitable for single-layer coating or to be applied as the primer in high-performance formula. The dry coating has the high zinc content, which complies with the composition and performance requirements of HG/T3668 in China Chemical Industry, acting well in cathodic protection.

Designed Applications

As the primer prepared for heavy anticorrosive coating, able to provide maximum protection and adapts to various strongly corrosive environments. Applied to ship equipment, bridges, petrochemical plant, power plant, etc.

Suggested times of coating

Airless spraying once, dry coating thickness as 50~70 microns, brush painting or roller painting for 2~3 times.

Surface Treatment

Ø Use sand blasting till the level of Sa 2.5 to remove oxide skin and iron rust, roughness: 40~75 microns;

Ø Be sure to get rid of the oil stain and weld spatters on the steel plate before rust removal, and burnish welding seams and closed angles;

Ø For the surface coated with shop primer, oil stain, moisture, zinc salts and dust must be removed. For the partially rusty part, adopt local sand blasting till Sa2.5 Level for rust removal, or adopt elastic grinding wheel buffing till St.3 Level.

Temperature of

base material

The temperature of base material must be over 3℃(37.4℉) above the dew point.

When the temperature of base material is below 5℃(41℉), the reaction of epoxy and solidifying agent becomes slow, which is not suitable for using.

Safety Protection

There should be good ventilating devices provided at the work site. During working, wear the appliances for labor protection such as gauze mask, spectacles, gloves, etc. to avoid skin contact with and suction of solvent or paint fog. Smoking is forbidden at the work site, and all fire sources shall be isolated.

The product should be kept at cool and dry place, away from heat sources and fire sources.

Precautions

Long-time exposure of the zinc-rich primer will cause the formation of zinc salts (also called white rusts) on it. On the surface with zinc salts, cleaning level sand blasting or mechanical rust removal should be adopted for secondary surface preparation and removal of all impurities.

Overthick coating will prolong the minimum interval of coating and handling time, and may have adverse effect on the intervals of recoating.
