101 Epoxy Zinc Phosphate Primer

Description

Two component Epoxy based anti corrosive primer pigmented with Zinc Chromate as corrosion inhibiting pigments.

Recommended Use :-

It is recommended as primer on M.S surface for original equipment manufacturing as well as for process industry as in various fertilizer, refineries, petrochemical, chemical and other plants, applied in diverse areas of tank exteriors, equipments, pipelines, structural steel, etc. Not to be used for immersion application.

Surface Preparation

Abrasive blasting to Sa 21/2 Swedish Standards is the best method of surface preparation. In case blasting is not possible, then the surface of steel should be cleaned to St-2/St-3 std. The surface should be absolutely dry, moisture and oil free before primer application.

Application Method

Stir the Base part thoroughly. Mix the base and hardener as per our recommended ratio, by volume. Stir the mix gently to attain homogeneity. Allow the mixture to stand still (maturation) for about 10-15 minutes to initiate the reaction. Add Epoxy Thinner into the mix, if required, depending on application method, and stir gently for few minutes. Strain the paint through Nylon filter cloth of 100 mesh size and apply uniformly over the surface. All equipments used for above should be properly cleaned.

Application :- By Brush / By Conventional Spray / By Airless Spray

Generally no thinner is required for Brush application, however under adverse environmental conditions about 5% of thinner, by volume, can be added. Apply evenly in criss-cross manner and ensure the uniform application. Use quality brushes for paint application.

Notes

1. Do not apply paint when temperature falls below 10°C or rises above 50°C and when Relative Humidity is above 85% or during rain, fog or mist. Surface temperature must always be minimum of 3°C above Dew point.

2. Brushes and spray equipment should be cleaned with SAFFRO's recommended thinner otherwise equipment is liable to be damaged.

3. DFT variation can be obtained by change in application method/thinning ratio.

4. Shelf life indicated is minimum for this Product in sealed conditions and it is subject to re-inspection thereafter. Individual component is required to be stored in cool, dry and covered condition, away from heat and ignition
