PG-2112-2

 

This is a unique 100% solid epoxy system with excellent superior chemical resistance to acids, alkalies, salts, solvents, oils and other chemicals. PG-2112-2 is a high gloss, high abrasion resistant, moisture insensitive, low temperature curing. Coatings and toppings of PG-2112-2 have excellent resistance to thermal shock when subjected to frequent steam and/or hot water cleaning.

PG-2112-2 is recommended as a coating or topping wherever chemical resistance is needed on concrete, masonry, and wood substrates in food processing plants, dairies, chemical plants, waste water treatment tanks, battery storage and charging areas, breweries, plating plants. Etc.

It protects and restores areas subjected to chemical attack and/or high abrasions that are spalled and deteriorated. Aggregates such as silica sand, emery or silicon carbide may be added to produce mortars and grouts for repair and/or resurfacing. When used as a mortar, it is recommended that one or two topcoats be applied to seal the surface against chemicals and acids.

COATING:

Apply PG-2112-2 to a clean, sound surface by brush, roller (short nap) or spray. A second coat, when necessary, should be applied within 24 hours of the first coat. Light abrading will always improve intercoat adhesion. Coverage will average 100-150 sq. Ft per gallon. For a skid resistant surface broadcast aggregates tofirst coat while still wet.

Mortar:

First fill all large Voids, Cracks and Depressions. Whenever deep voids, spalls, ruts, pot-holes, etc. are to be filled in excess of 1/2 inch thickness it is recommended that individual layers be limited to no more than 1/2 inch per application. Where required, additional layers can be installed on a progressive build-up procedure. It is not necessary to hold up successive layer applications pending complete setting of the preceding layer . . . merely permit initial setting to take place, until surface is firm to thumb pressure.

CURING

At normal room temperatures PG-2112-2 will initially cure within 8 to 12 hours. While ultimate cure requires approximately three days (to reach maximum physical and chemical properties), treated areas can be exposed to light traffic and limited spillage following 24 hours of curing at 70-80°F.

In all areas where heavy traffic or chemical spillage exists, it is recommended that PG-2112-2 be permitted to cure for a minimum of three days prior to exposure. This will assure optimum end results.
