Estotect VE

Estotect VE

 Glass Filled Vinyl Ester Coating

Description

Estotect VE is a high-build glass-flake reinforced vinyl ester coating suitable for immersion service of highly corrosive materials. It is a superior chemical tank lining that can  withstand a wide spectrum of liquid and solid cargoes. The well arranged glass-flakes in the vinyl ester matrix will form an excellent coating against permeation and thus contributed to the extremely high chemical resistance.

Uses

Estotect VE can be applied over steel and concrete surfaces subjected to exposure of corrosive chemicals or immersion of highly corrosive chemicals or solvents. It is most suitable for chemical tank lining for corrosive chemicals as well as the protective floor topping for areas subjected to splash and spillage of aggressive chemicals.

• Sewage plants
• Marine structures
• Tunnels
• Food processing factory
• Laboratory
• Loading ramp,
• Kitchen,
• Workshop and clean room.

Advantages

• Excellent resistance against a broad spectrum of chemicals.
• Can build up to 750 – 1000 microns in one coat.
• Anti corrosion.
• Fast dry.

Design Criteria

Estotect VE is design to be applied in two coats to achieve a minimum total dry film thickness of 1500 microns. To achieve the correct protective properties, Estotect VE must be  applied on to the substrate at the coverage rates recommended.

Application Instructions

Surface preparation

Substrate shall be clean and free from laitance, loose particles and previous coatings. It can be prepare blast cleaning, water jetting and acid etching, wire brushing or grinding.

For steel substrates, it is ideally to blast cleaning to SA2½.

New concrete must be cured for at least 28 days. Old concrete must be sound and clean. Abrasive blast will provide best surface for good bonding.

Primer

Estotect VE Primer is a recommended primer to enhance the adhesion and compatibility.

Application

The two components of Estotect VE shall be mix thoroughly  for 1 – 2 minutes until it obtained a homogeneous mixture, with a slow speed mixer. Do not mix more materials that the  quantity to be consumed within the pot life. Estotect VE can be applied by brush or spray.

ESTOTECT VE SHALL NOT BE ADDED WITH WATER OR OTHER SOLVENT.

Cleaning

Clean all application tools immediately after use.
