Farbacoat Epoxy 20

Epoxy 20 anti-corrosion two-component thick-layer epoxy coating with a high content of dry residue. It has high corrosion resistance, excellent abrasion resistance, and high insulating properties.

EPOXY Farbacoat 20 — anticorrosive two-component thick-layer epoxy coating with a high content of dry residue. It has high corrosion resistance, excellent abrasion resistance, and high insulating properties.

Farbacoat EPOXY 20 is resistant to atmospheric factors, splashes of moderately aggressive chemicals. The shade of the coating may slightly change under the influence of solar radiation. The coating cures at low temperatures.

ADVANTAGES

High mechanical stability.
It cures quickly even at low temperatures.
High adhesion to steel surfaces.
The coating is resistant to weathering.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE

The coating is used as an anti-corrosion, primer and finishing layer in paintwork systems where a low content of volatile organic substances is required, as well as a large coating thickness.
Use coatings for priming steel structures that operate in marine, industrial and urban environments.

COATING AND APPLICATION COATING

The coating comes in two containers. To prepare the coating, mix the full amount of the two containers in the specified proportions. Component I mechanically thoroughly mixed and add component II. Stir the resulting mass thoroughly until a homogeneous mass.

Volume ratio of components:

component I — 4
component II — 1

Weight ratio of components:

component I — 10
component II — 1.5

It is not recommended to mix the mixture intensively, as air may get into the mixture.

After 10 minutes (at a temp. оf 20 ° C) the paint is ready for use.

If painting is carried out at low temperatures (5 ° C and below), after stirring the mixture, the exposure time is increased to 20 minutes.

It is recommended to use Diluent 20 to 10% volume.

The mixture is suitable for 4 hours at 20 ° C. High temperatures reduce service life, while lower temperatures prolong it.

After preparation of the mixture, the product must be used within the specified period.

Method of applying the finished coating:

airless spraying: nozzle Ø — 0.38-0.53 mm; pressure — 17 — 23 MPa
brush or roller
pneumatic spraying with Diluent 20 in a volume of up to 20%.

MODE OF APPLICATION

Prepare the surface.

The cleaner the surface, the more resistant the coating. Coatings applied directly to steel surfaces and sandblasted to a minimum degree of purification Sa 2½ have the highest chemical and mechanical resistance.

The surface of the steel must be dry, free from contamination, completely degreased: cleaned to at least Sa 2½ grade for submersible surfaces or at least to St 2 degree for exterior surfaces.
Before applying the coating to the concrete surface, it must be cleaned of fats, oils, liquid bituminous masses and detergents. If the concrete is new (min. C20 / 25), be sure to remove the milk of lime. Smooth concrete mechanically bring to a roughness, for example by easy bead-blasting treatment to obtain a profyle CSP-3 (according to ICRI). In case of renovation, the concrete surface should have a minimum profyle of CSP1, as well as adhesion at the level of> 1.5 MPa in the tear test.

Overlap interval	30^oC	20^oC	10^oC	0^oC	-10^oC
Minimum (h)	3	6	10	20	35
Maximum	1 month **

This time applies only to the recommended thickness of coating, drying in conditions of good ventilation. The time of application of subsequent layers depends on the temperature, ventilation conditions, the number of layers and the thickness of the coating.

** In a period of high temperatures and with a strong exposure of the painted surfaces to sunlight, the indicated time should be reduced to 1 week.

In case of exceeding the maximum interval, remove dirt and limescale from the coating (can be treated with abrasive material, or rinsed with water under pressure with sand, this will give the surface a roughness).
If the coating is used in aggressive conditions, it is recommended to prepare the surface in the best way, it is allowed to apply subsequent layers until the previous layer is completely cured.

The coating is applied, observing the specified precautions. Component packaging contains appropriate safety warnings. They should be respected.

Subsequent staining is permitted by Farbacoat coatings — two-component epoxy, polyurethane, one-component acrylic.

Conditions of application and curing of the coating:

minimum surface temperature: -10 oC
Surface temperature above the dew point at 3oC (avoid condensation)
relative air humidity not higher than 85%,
excellent ventilation.

Packaging:

component I — a metal bucket with a volume of 20 liters, net weight — 25 kg
component II — a metal bucket with a volume of 4 liters, net weight — 3.75 kg

STORAGE AND SHELF LIFE

When stored in unopened factory packaging and at temperatures up to 40oC — 12 months from the date of manufacture

NOTE! The coating is intended for professional industrial use. Be sure to read the information about the safety of the product, it is contained in the Safety Data Sheet Coatings Farbacoat EPOXY 20.
