TLN Ceramic EPOXI M (marine)

TLN Ceramic EPOXI M is a two-component epoxy-phenolic polyamide-cured mastic coating. Thick-film coating with high solids content, allowing for various degrees of surface preparation. Provides long-term protection in environments with high corrosion activity; elevated operating temperatures. It can be used as a primer, intermediate or finishing layer, as well as as a single-layer system, when operating in an ambient atmosphere or immersed in a liquid. It is also used for well-prepared carbon steel surfaces and surfaces with used coatings.

It is recommended for offshore environments, including splash zones, oil refineries, power plants, bridges, buildings, mining equipment and general-purpose structural steel, for use in shipbuilding and ship repair for painting structures, superstructures, decks, pipelines, surface and underwater

TYPICAL APPLICATION

The main field of application is the maintenance and repair of facilities.

ENAMEL PAINTING TECHNOLOGY

Dry residue (by volume) — 82± 2 %
Gloss level (GU 60°C) — semi-gloss
Density — 1.2-1.6 kg/dm3
Viscosity VZ – 246 nozzle diameter 4 mm — 35-50 sec.
The particle size is not more than 50 microns

RECOMMENDED THICKNESS RANGE

Dry film thickness — 150 – 300 microns
The thickness of the raw film is 180 – 365 microns
Theoretical opacity is 2.7 – 5.5 kg/m2

SURFACE PREPARATION AND APPLICATION

To ensure proper adhesion to the previous product, all surfaces must be dry and
clean.

PREPARATION OF THE MATERIAL

The product must be prepared before application. To do this, component A must be mixed with component B in the proportions according to the instructions. Mix with a mixer for 3 minutes until smooth. If necessary, dilute to the desired consistency with Toluene.
If accelerated polymerization is required at room temperatures, component B of a different modification should be used (provided by the manufacturer upon prior request).
Mixing of components: by weight per 1000 grams of base, 1000 grams of hardener.

APPLICATION

The product can be applied by roller, brush or spray.
Spraying: use airless spraying. Airless spray parameters: nozzle diameter (inches/1000): 19-25. Nozzle pressure (minimum): 150 bar/2100 lb/in2.
Brush: recommended for strip painting and painting of small areas. It is necessary to ensure the nominal thickness of the coating.
Roller: can be used for a small area. It is not recommended for the first primer coat. It is necessary to ensure the nominal thickness of the coating.
Regardless of the surface temperature, the minimum temperature of the base and hardener after mixing is 15°C. In order to achieve the required viscosity at a low temperature, it may be necessary to add an additional amount of diluent. When an additional
amount of diluent is added, the resistance to streaking decreases, and polymerization also slows down. If it is necessary to dilute the material, the diluent is added after mixing the two components.

DRYING AND POLYMERIZATION TIME

(cold curing):
Substrate temperature -5°C 10°C 23°C 40°C
Drying until the adhesive disappears 35 h 18 h 7 h 2 h
Drying to a hard film,
allowing movement of people 50 h 24 h 10 h 4 h
Drying time before applying
the next coat, at least 50 h 24 h 10 h 4 h
Drying/ polymerization,
sufficient for the operation of the coating 30 d 14 d 7 d 2 d

The drying and polymerization times are determined at a controlled temperature and relative humidity of at least 70%.

(hot curing):
Polymerization is carried out in a heat chamber at a temperature of 120-130 ° C for 30-40 minutes.
Regardless of the surface temperature, the minimum temperature of the base and hardener after mixing is 15°C. As the temperature and polymerization time increase, the color of the coating changes.

KEEPING

The product must be stored in accordance with the LMB storage regulations. Containers with the material should be stored in a dry, cool and well-ventilated place away from sources of heat and ignition. Keep containers tightly closed. Be careful.

STRUCTURE

Resin, wetting agent, dispersant, titanium dioxide, black pigment, Xylene diluent.
