INTERNATIONAL PAINT
INTRODUCES INTERTHANE 990 UHS
International Paint LLC, an Akzo Nobel
company, and one of the world’s leading
providers of high-performance protective coatings and fire-protection products has introduced Interthane 990
UHS, a new low VOC polyurethane
technology that contains additives to
help prevent the growth of mildew on
the surface of exposed coated steelwork.
The high-performance, two-compo-nent white acrylic polyurethane was
specially designed as a solution for the
booming petrochemical ethanol market
to address ongoing issues with mildew
build-up on exterior steel tanks due to
splashes, spills, fumes and overfill of the
slow evaporating chemical.
Interthane 990 UHS is formulated for
both new construction and maintenance
applications and offers superior durability with excellent gloss and color retention. The finish coat can be sprayed,
rolled or brush-applied, and is ideal for
use on correctly prepared and primed
steel surfaces in a wide range of aggressive environments including chemical
and petrochemical plants, offshore
structures, bridges, pulp and paper
mills, power plants and refineries.
LIQUIGUARD TECHNOLOGIES
LAUNCHES NEW FORMULATIONS
Liquiguard Technologies has launched
two new formulas: Liquiguard PC Plus
and Liquiguard PC Concentrate.
Liquiguard PC is a new alternative
for the powder coating process. It is a
water-based, non-hazardous, non-toxic
pre-treatment developed as a replacement for the more commonly used phosphate and chromate pre-treatments.
Liquiguard PC has excellent anti-rust
and strong adhesion properties, which
provide a mechanical bond over the
metal profiles. Liquiguard PC will also
isolate and inhibit rusting.
With the newest release of Liquiguard
Plus and Liquiguard Concentrate,
Liquiguard Technologies brings a new
dimension of versatility to its family of
products. Designed for the volume users,
the new formulations serve several purposes. Primarily they help reduce freight
charges and storage space. Additionally
the powder coating facilities can dilute
these formulations to different levels
based on the nature of the substrate and
application procedures. While
Liquiguard PC Plus can be diluted up to
three times its original volume
Liquiguard PC is a water-based, non-hazardous, non-toxic pre-treatment
developed as a replacement for the
more commonly used phosphate and
chromate pre-treatments.
