EPOXY MULTI-PURPOSE PRIMER EP-116

Specification Data

Product Number

Type

EP-116

The two-pack, universal anticorrosion primer based on epoxy resin, hardener and special pigments.

Uses

Used for the new building system or the maintenance system, including ship’s all areas such as

ballast tank, underwater hull, topside, deck, cargo tank, oil tank, superstructure, interior etc. Also

used for anticorrosion engineering of steel structure such as chemical factories, bridges, power

plants, inlet and outlet pipes, drains and sewers etc.

Characteristics

1. Simplified procedure, convenient application, unique long terms anticorrosive performance.

2. Excellent anticorrosion and adhesion, widely used for shop primer, steel plate (sand-blasted or mechanical surface preparation), aluminum, stainless steel, galvanized steel etc.

3. Can be coated with epoxy or polyurethane paint well.

4. Excellent resistance to mechanical damage.

5. Excellent resistance to sea water and corrosion, suitable for steel and non-ferrous metal.

6. Easy application, very fast drying, available for all year round.

General

Remove dirt, dust, oil and all other contaminants that could interfere with adhesion of the coating.

Surfaces must be clean and dry. Moisture, grease, sludge, dust, corrosive salt must be thoroughly cleaned from substrate.

Steel

Primed Surfaces

Areas of

Breakdown and

Damage

Surface preparation standards can use SSPC-SP10 or Sa2 1/2 (ISO 8501-1:2007).

EP-116 should always be applied over a recommended anti-corrosive coating scheme. The primer surface should be dry and free from all contamination and EP-116 must be applied within the overcoating intervals specified (consult the relevant product data sheet).

It should be prepared to the specified standard (Sa2 1/2 (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP6, Abrasive Blasting or SSPC-SP11, Power Tool Cleaning) and patch primed prior to the application of EP-116.

Mixing

Mixing Ratio

Pot life

Mix base and hardener according to the mixing ratio and stir thoroughly.

Use Epoxy Thinner (SP-12) to thin up 5-10%.

Base : Hardener = 80 : 20 (by volume) 86 : 14(by weight.)

Avoid applying the paint in rainy weather or the relative humidity exceed 85%, particularly, a wet surface must be thoroughly dried. All equipment must be cleaned immediately after use. To increase or decrease the usage of thinner depending on the temperature of the coated surface, the temperature decreased may have to add more amount of thinner
