Valspar launches Industrial Cold Galv Primer
Reformulated to provide a more durable
and crack-resistant coating, Valspar has introduced its Industrial Cold Galv Primer.
Valspar’s Industrial Cold Galv Primer dries
to a durable and crack-resistant coating,
stops rust creepage and has excellent outdoor durability, resisting the corrosive effects
of chemicals and salt. Its electrochemical
galvanic action continues to protect even if
scratched, and it matches new galvanized
metal with a dry film containing more than
85 percent zinc said the company. Applications include piping, tanks, bins, machinery,
heavy capital structures and vehicle bodies.
Intended for professional use only and
should only be used on metal substrates.
Corr-Paint CP2060 Abrasion
Resistant High Temp Coating
now available
Corr-Paint CP2060, a new abrasion and
corrosion resistant, high temperature coating developed by Aremco Products, Inc.,
is now available to protect steel components and structures used in demanding
industrial applications to 500 °F (260 ºC).
Corr-Paint CP2060 is a two-part, silicon
carbide filled, 100 percent solids, epoxy-no-volac, abrasion and corrosion resistant
coating used to protect steel components
and structures used in aircraft, automotive,
chemical processing, foundry and power
generation plants for applications.
Corr-Paint CP2060 provides adhesion
to marginally prepared metal surfaces and
resistance to a wide range of chemicals including acetic acid, jet fuel, alcohols, diesel
fuel, gasoline, hydrochloric acid, nitric
acid, phosphoric acid, potassium chloride,
sodium chloride, toluene and xylene said
the company. It also provides good thermal shock, salt spray and UV resistance.
Corr-Paint CP2060 is a two-part system that is packaged in pre-weighed kits
for a 100: 8 mix ratio by weight. CP2060
mixes to a thick paste and is applied using
a trowel or spatula. It sets and cures fully
at room temperature in 24 hours. Typical
film thickness is 50 mils for a single coat.
Bayer MaterialScience launches
2K polyurethane waterborne
technology for sealers
One of the fastest growing market segments in the concrete flooring arena is
sealers for decorative and polished concrete surfaces. There is a need in this
market for a more durable, longer lasting product said Bayer MaterialScience
LLC, which has developed a new technology for sealers.
Applicators want a product with chemical and stain resistance, low odor, long-term performance, ease of use and
concrete penetration. Bayer developed a
two-component (2K), polyurethane waterborne technology for sealers that offers
a number of advantages over currently
available concrete sealer products, including better ease of use; improved durability; low odor; increased service life; and
ultra-low volatile organic compounds
(below 15 grams per liter).
Steven Reinstadtler, construction marketing manager for coatings, Bayer MaterialScience LLC, says that this 2K,
polyurethane waterborne technology
guards against stains as it is resistant to a
wide range of household and industrial
chemicals or staining agents.
“There are three types of flooring—
decorative stained, diamond polished
and color-pigmented concrete—that are
becoming popular and sustainable floor-
ing options and could use a sealer,” said
Reinstadtler. “These types of floors are
increasingly being installed in higher vis-
ibility venues where aesthetics matter,
and the 2K, polyurethane waterborne
technology for sealers from Bayer pro-
tects the flooring while also preserving
its aesthetics.”
The various types of stained and pol-
ished flooring on which the sealer would
be applied are often found in commercial
and retail spaces, such as hotel lobbies and
restaurants. The technology is primarily
applied to indoor surfaces, but is also ap-
propriate for outdoor applications. CW
