CSE-6100 SERIES EPOXY PHENOLIC COATINGS

GENERIC TYPE: A two package, amine cured, cold set epoxy phenolic.

RECOMMENDED USAGE: Heresite CSE-6100 Series Epoxy Phenolic coatings are specifically formulated for immersion or industrial maintenance application.

Heresite CSE-6100 can be applied to concrete and metallic substrates. It provides outstanding chemical resistance to a wide range of acids, alkalis, salts, petroleum products and other aqueous solutions.

Heresite CSE-6100 Series Epoxy Phenolic coatings are excellent for hot water service and can withstand temperatures up to 250°F (121°C) in deionized water.

CHEMICAL RESISTANCE GUIDE:

Exposure Immersion Splash & Spillage
Acids Good Excellent
Alkalies Good Excellent
Solvents Fair Good
Inorganic Salts Excellent Excellent
Water Excellent Excellent

Force curing is required when exposure is severe.

Other colors available upon request.

COVERAGE: Theoretical Coverage --- 914 square feet per gallon per mil. (At 13 mil DFT average coverage would be 56 square feet per gallon. This includes a 20% loss factor.)

Recommended total dry film thickness is as follows:

Environment Dry Film Thickness No. of Coats
Immersion 12-14 Mils 2
Highly Corrosive Fumes 12-14 Mils 2
Mildly Corrosive Fumes 7-10 Mils 2
Maintenance 6-7 Mils 1

SURFACE PREPARATION: Remove all oil, grease, and other contaminants. All seams should be continuously welded, weld splatter removed and all edges radiused. (See Bulletin No. 113. "Fabrication Specifications.")

STEEL:

IMMERSION: A white metal blast is required in accordance with NACE #1 or SSPC-SP-5-63 specifications.

NON-IMMERSION: A commercial blast is acceptable in accordance with NACE #3 or SSPC-SP-6-63 specifications.

Surface profile or anchor pattern should be 20 to 25% of the recommended dry film thickness.

CONCRETE: Remove protrusions by sanding or grinding. Concrete must be cured 28 days at 70°F (21°C) and 50% relative humidity.

IMMERSION: Dry abrasive blast to open all voids. Blow or vacuum off residue.

NON-IMMERSION: Surfaces must be acid etched or abrasive blasted to remove laitance.

EQUIPMENT:

  1. All spray equipment shall be thoroughly cleaned and be free of old paint film and other contaminants.
  2. Use standard production type spray guns:
    Guns Fluid Air
    DeVilbiss JGA-502 E 704
    Binks #62 66-SS 66-SD
    Graco P800 04 02
  3. Air supply shall be uncontaminated.
  4. Airless spray equipment: 1500-1800 PSI liquid pressure. Tip size from .015" to .018". Thinning requirements are less than for conventional spray.

MIXING: Stir Part A thoroughly, then stir Part B thoroughly. Add the contents of Part B to the container of Part A. Mix thoroughly and allow the mixed material to age 30 minutes before using. Mixed material must be used within 12 hours.

PRIMER: Self priming on steel. On concrete a primer coat is recommended, consisting of 1 part coating to 2 parts solvent.

THINNING: The type and amount of thinner required is dependent upon temperature, ventilation, humidity, spray equipment used, and desired film thickness. Suggested thinning at 75°F (24°C) is 20-30%. Heresite S-330 solvent is the fastest drying. It is recommended for normal applications. Heresite S-320 solvent can be used when a slower drying solvent is required.

APPLICATION:

  1. Do not apply if temperature is less than 5°F (2°C) above dew point.
  2. Adjust air pressure to approximately 80 pounds at the gun and provide 15-20 pounds pot pressure. Adjust spray gun by first opening liquid valve and then adjust air valve to give approximately an 8" to 12" fan.
  3. Holding gun perpendicular to the surface at a distance of 12", apply a mist bonding pass.
  4. Allow to flash off for several minutes, but not long enough to allow film to completely dry.
  5. Apply 3-4 criss-cross multi-passes maintaining a wet appearing film.
  6. Repeat Step #5 until desired film thickness is obtained.
  7. Clean equipment immediately with Heresite S-320 or S-330 solvent.
  8. Let first coat air dry with ventilation for approximately 16 hours.
  9. For second coat, repeat Steps #1 through #7.
  10. Coating should be final cured according to following schedule:

    70°F (21°C) -- 7 days
    50°F (10°C) -- 14 days

FORCE CURE:

  1. If force curing is required, air dry with ventilation for approximately 1 hour.
  2. After the air dry period has elapsed, the temperature should be raised in 40°F(22°C) increments every 30 minutes .
  3. Hold at desired curing temperature according to following schedule to effect final cure:

    130°F (55°C) -- 18 hours
    160°F (71°C) -- 4 ½ hours
    200°F (93°C) -- 1 ¾ hours
