Epoxy Pipeline Coating
Pipe Line Coating have Undergone dramatic technological Changes. Coating now must be able to be applied in the field or at operating site, must not be damaged in handling during Construction or in operation by soil stress or soil movement. It must provide exceptional corrosion protection.
 Epoxy system must be developed which can be operative up to 150˚c temperature.
 Additionally epoxy technology must allow to be applied on wet surfaces and to bond to subsequent coats like Polyurethane coating systems.
 Advantages of Markskill‘s Phenalkamine for Pipe Coating:
Fast curing with workable pot life.
Suitable viscosity for pipe coating application.
Excellent bonding with base metal and subsequent coating.
Some of the products are approved for potable water usage.
Thermal shock stable.
 From protecting pipelines to sealing warehouse floors, an epoxy surface coating protects surfaces strengthens materials and protects them from corrosion and decay, making epoxy one of the most widely used industrial finishes. While epoxy coatings may initially cost more than other types of surface coating materials, its ability to provide superior and durable corrosion resistance, adhesion and flexibility to a variety surfaces ultimately makes it a more economical choice, as the need to reapply the coating may be less frequent when materials are prepared well.
 Epoxy coatings require specific environmental conditions to ensure the success of their application, as well as the proper preparation of the respective surfaces. When applying an epoxy coating to steel, for instance, you may need to remove the thin corrosion layer that naturally forms on the surface. Methods of cleaning surfaces include the use of chemicals or blasting products.
 After you prepare and clean a surface, it becomes vulnerable to environmental contamination. When working with steel, for example, it takes as little as 30 minutes for flash rust to form. The longer you wait to apply an epoxy surface coating, the shorter the expected field longevity becomes. For this reason, manufacturers provide specific instructions regarding how quickly to apply the first coating and the ideal environmental conditions.
