Thurmalox® 70

Air Dry Silicone Coating for Stainless Steel Prevents Stress Corrosion Cracking Heat Resistant to 593°C

Thurmalox 70 is an air drying, silicone based heat resistant coating that protects thermally insulated austenitic stainless steel from chloride induced stress corrosion cracking.

Thurmalox 70 withstands temperatures to 538°C with peaks to 593°C. it is formulated to contain the minimum amount of attainable chlorides, halides, sulphides, nitrates and metals that induce external stress corrosion cracking.

Every batch of Thurmalox 70 is tested by an independent laboratory for leachable chloride content, Thurmalox 70 is formulated to meet the currently accepted practice for selection of protective coatings for stainless steel surfaces under thermal insulation as set forth in NACE Technical Committee Report 6H189 “A state-of-the Art Report of Protective Coatings for Carbon Steel and Austenitic Stainless Steel Surfaces Under Thermal Insulation”

Recommended Uses:

• Insulated stainless steel piping, vessels and equipment.

• Nuclear power facilities where a high temperature coating for insulated stainless steel with minimum amounts of chlorides, other halides, nitrates, sulphides and metals is needed.
