Chemco International Ltd | Corrosion Protection | Corrosion Prevention

We offer a range of corrosion protection services with a variety of solvent-free epoxy resins reinforced with screened glassflake.

Corrosion protection can be applied to metal, concrete and other substrates and form a reliable barrier against corrosion, weathering and temperature. The range of applications our corrosion protection products can benefit include organisations looking for structural protection, internal lining of conditioning tanks and coatings on pumps and risers.

Corrosion protection coatings have exceptional benefits for a range of mechanical properties to make them ideal for protecting a variety of installations, equipment and plant. 

Our corrosion prevention techniques take advantage of an innovative range of epoxy systems and are some of the most advanced system in the current market. 

The benefits of corrosion prevention systems include further resistance to acids, alkaline and aromatic solvents. They also profit from superior flexural strength and elongation and a high gloss retention  and resistance to chalking.

Corrosion prevention is also user friendly and eco-friendly with solvent free application. Systems can also be applied during inclement weather and help reduce downtime and delays. They have outstanding ahesive properties to moist or even wet surfaces and are highly multi-purpose.

Our series of polyester glassflake systems are based on bisphenol,. This is a fumerate resin reinforced with screened glassflake and catalysed with 1-3 percent of ketone peroxide.

Polester glassflake systems form a tough, impermeable barrier to corrosion (pH1-14), high temperatures (immersed: 90ºC, atmospheric: 125ºC), and abrasion and erosion.

The benefits include:

• outstanding chemical resistance to acids, alkalines and many solvents
• multi-purpose
• adjustable pot life
• touch dry within 1-2 hrs
• fast turnaround, equipment can be back in service within 12 hours 
• ease of repair (100 percent effective) and machineability
• fast curing even at low temperatures
• excellent UV and abrasion resistance
• can be applied up to 1.0 mm per coat 
• long term guarantees up to 25 years

Our range of vinyl ester glassflake systems are based on vinyl ester resins. This system is reinforced with screened glassflake and catalysed with 1-3 percent of organic peroxide.

They offer highly durable coatings with excellent mechanical and chemical resistance, particularly in alkaline environments and they can easily be spray, brush or trowel applied.

• outstanding high temperature performance (immersed up to 130ºC, atmospheric up to 195ºC)
• excellent chemical resistance (pH1-14)
• fast curing even at low temperatures 
• high impact and fatigue resistance 
• touch dry within 2 - 4 hrs
• fast turnaround, equipment back in service within 24 hrs 
• high damage resistance, even at low temperatures 
• long term guarantees, in excess of 20 years
   

Our selection of epoxy solvent free systems and range of solvent-free epoxy resins are reinforced with screened glassflake that can be applied to metal, concrete and many other substrates.

They form a durable barrier to weathering, corrosion and temperature and these coatings have excellent mechanical properties. It makes them ideal protection applications for various installations, plant and equipment.

•  high gloss retention and resistance to chalking 
• outstanding elongation and flexural strength
• excellent chemical resistance to many acids, alkalines, and aromatic solvents
• high impact and wear resistance
• easy-to-use, systems are cold applied
• multi-purpose
• user-friendly and environmentally compliant (solvent-free)
• outstanding adhesion to moist, even wet substrates
• systems can be applied during inclement weather, reducing downtime and delays
