PLE06-3 Inorganic Zinc Silicate Primer Description

Overview

PLE06-3 Inorganic Zinc Silicate Primer is a two-component inorganic zinc silicate primer based on ethyl silicate resin and zinc dust.

The product is formulated with ethyl silicate resin, zinc dust, toughening agent, anti-settling agent, and solvent, and is supplied as Part A and Part B. It is described as providing excellent corrosion resistance with cathodic protection, strong chemical resistance, weathering and abrasion resistance, heat resistance, and suitability for on-line welding/cutting.

Key Benefits

  • Provides excellent corrosion resistance with cathodic protection

  • Described as having strong chemical resistance

  • Described as having weathering and abrasion resistance

  • Described as having heat resistance

  • Suitable for on-line welding/cutting

  • Typically used with epoxy coatings for corrosion protection

This primer is suitable for long-term steel protection projects in industrial and marine environments.

Typical application areas

  • Blast-cleaned steel

  • Steel requiring long-term anti-corrosion priming

  • Steel used with epoxy coating systems

  • Properly prepared steel requiring heat resistance up to 400°C
