Instructions For Use

Anticorrosion Coatings

Anticorrosion coatings based on CoatOSil M120XB Resin Solution may be considered for coating objects subjected to very high temperatures, such as waste gas stacks, blast furnace gas pipes, blast furnaces, cracking plants, etc. Optimum corrosion resistance and heat stability on steel are only achieved on a sandblasted substrate. This pretreatment is needed even if the material is new.

Coating Systems

For all objects exposed simultaneously to the weather and very high temperatures, one or two base coats and one topcoat, giving a total dry film thickness of 60-80 µm, are needed. Consider systems in which the primers are formulated on the basis of grades of CoatOSil Resin P and the topcoat on the basis of CoatOSil M120XB Resin Solution. With objects that are not exposed to outdoor conditions or to an aggressive atmosphere, a one-coat finish may be sufficient.

Film Formation

Coatings based on CoatOSil M120XB Resin Solution can dry at room temperature and have excellent weather stability and provide good corrosion protection. However, resistance to oils, greases and gasoline typically is only achieved after exposure for about one hour to temperatures above 150° C.

Pigments / Heat Resistance

Metal powders, such as aluminum bronze or micaceous iron oxide, may be considered for the topcoats. For primers pigmented with zinc dust, consider the use of CoatOSil Resin P 851. Topcoats based on CoatOSil M120XB Resin Solution and pigmented with aluminum bronze or micaceous iron oxide typically remain stable for about 3 – 6 months. If aluminum bronze or micaceous iron oxide is used, a long-term thermal stability of up to 600° C can be reached. Coatings containing micaceous iron oxide can be tinted by adding suitable heat-stable inorganic color pigments.

Release Coatings

Anti-stick coatings with CoatOSil M120XB Resin Solution have excellent release properties and, therefore, may be considered for use on the linings of mills, silos, pipelines, injection molds or vulcanizing molds. Anti-stick coatings based on CoatOSil M120XB Resin Solution may be considered for use in the foodstuff sector for the finishing of baking tins and baking trays.

Compatibility

Compatibility typically exists only with straight methyl silicone resins or oils.
