Epoxy Glass Flake Topcoat (2K) – Epoxy glass flake topcoat for wet or chemical zones.
For underwater/humid areas and heavy chemical plants.
Mix ratio 20:2; pot life 4 h.
Salt water resistance: 1 year, no change.
Overview
Two-component epoxy glass flake topcoat with resistance to water and permeation of chemical media, used for long-term heavy-duty corrosion protection.
It is stated as suitable for underwater or humid environments and heavy chemical areas, and may also be used as an intermediate coat.
Composition
Epoxy resin, glass flakes, pigments, additives, and solvents; modified amine curing agent; supplied as Part A & Part B.
Typical uses
Long-term heavy-duty corrosion protection topcoat (or intermediate coat) for steel structures and concrete facilities in underwater/humid environments and heavy chemical areas.
Technical data (typical)
Appearance / color: Various colors.
Theoretical consumption: 0.36 kg/m² at 150 µm DFT (losses not included).
Density / specific gravity: 1.3 kg/L.
Drying / curing (25°C): Touch dry 1 h; hard dry 24 h; full cure 7 days.
Salt water resistance: 1 year, no change of coating film (as stated).
Application data (25°C)
Mixing ratio (A:B): 20:2.
Induction time: 5 min.
Pot life: 4 h.
Application methods: Airless spray, brush, roller.
Thinner: X-7 epoxy thinner; dilution 2–8%.
Recoat interval: Minimum 24 h; maximum 7 days.
Recommended DFT: 60–80 µm per coat (brush/roller: 30–50 µm per coat).
Surface preparation
Over a two-component primer: surface must be clean, dry, and free of contaminants; abrade if maximum recoat interval is exceeded.
As first coat on steel: blast to Sa 2.5 or power-tool clean to St 3; surface profile 30–75 µm.
System compatibility / packing / storage
Compatible undercoats: epoxy glass flake anti-rust coating, epoxy anti-rust coating, etc.
Shelf life: 12 months.
Storage: Store in a dry, cool, ventilated place away from ignition sources and direct sunlight; no outdoor storage.
Packaging: Part A 20 kg; Part B 2 kg.
