The new technology for corrosion protection Silicone - epoxy hybrid resin SILIKOFTAL® ED Tego Chemie Service GmbH Manfred Priesch
Why a new technology for corrosion protection? SILIKOFTAL® ED combines the advantages of silicone resins and epoxy resins: Silicone resin: excellent weather resistance poor corrosion resistance Silicone - epoxy hybrid resin: excellent weather resistance excellent corrosion resistance Epoxy resin: poor weather resistance excellent corrosion resistance
Applications for SILIKOFTAL® ED: corrosion protection coatings SILIKOFTAL® ED can be used as binder for a huge variety of corrosion protection coatings: structural steel industrial plants power plants offshore-industry waste water treatment plants wood and paper industry plants maritime area concrete walls and floors
Features of SILIKOFTAL® ED Main features: excellent corrosion resistance in two coat systems excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals excellent colour and gloss retention high volume solids (~ 90%) and low VOC Enviromental and application features: compliance with the most severe requirements of health, safety and enviromental regulations low temperature cure (down to 0° C) tolerance to high humidity during drying high build application characteristics by standard application equipment isocyanate free
Applications for SILIKOFTAL® ED: antigraffiti coatings SILIKOFTAL® ED can be used as binder for antigraffiti coatings for: exteriors of rail coaches transport vehicles public utilities Special features graffiti resistance dirt resistance easy clean effect
Cost reduction with SILIKOFTAL® ED The new coating needs only two instead of three coatings layers Silicone - Epoxy Zn-Primer 1- top coat 2- top coats epoxy + PU silicone epoxy Zn- Primer Steel 125 m 175 PU
