E-Guard I EP-171

EPOXY TOPCOAT

A two-component epoxy enamel that provides excellent protection for metal, concrete, and other mineral surfaces against corrosion and heavy chemical exposure.

Description

• Excellent abrasion resistance;
• Heat resistance of the film up to 200°C;
• Usable at low temperatures (down to –5°C);
• Resistant to solvents, acids, bases, and their vapors;
• Fast-drying product;
• Forms water-and vapor-impermeable coating;
• High elasticity and resistance to linear expansion.

Purpose

It is used for the anti-corrosion protection of metal structures, machinery and equipment, transport vehicles, and other items operating in industrial, coastal, and offshore environments (up to C5M according to ISO 12944-2). It protects metals against chemical attack, salt mist, atmospheric corrosion, and aggressive vapors. It is resistant to abrasion and linear expansion caused by significant temperature fluctuations. It is suitable for use at very low temperatures (down to –5°C) and for use in systems protecting concrete against acids and bases.
