I-Zinc Primer

Two component solvented zinc rich inorganic coating, based on an ethyl silicate binder – the zinc component is incorporated prior to use and the mixture reacts with the atmospheric moisture, converting to a dense, inorganic coating of a Si/Zn/Si matrix.

An inorganic zinc rich primer providing excellent protection to steel substrates, for use under a wide range of high performance topcoat systems in corrosive environments such as exposed steelwork, bridges, tanks, pipe work – including offshore and onshore environments – oil production platforms and refineries.

• Provides long-term corrosion protection to structural steel and prior to top coating in the field.

• Used in construction as a fast drying primer.

• Can be applied in a wide range of temperatures including low temperatures.

• Suitable for steel structures, ship building, mechanical and automotive engineering, transportation and the protection of buildings in chemical plants, coastal and marine environments.

• Excellent abrasion resistance – scratches caused by handling damage continue to be protected by the high zinc content in the surrounding paint.

• High heat resistant up to 400°C.
