Description Dr. Fixit Coal Tar Epoxy is two-part coal tar epoxy based coating, composed of best quality dehydrated coal tar, liquid epoxy resins and curing agent, properly selected & graded inert fillers, additives and solvent. It is used as an anticorrosive & protective coating for concrete as well as steel structure because it has excellent chemical resistance properties in atmosphere or in contact with chemical solutions such as effluents, sewage, salty water and organic / inorganic acids & alkalis. It is most suitable for structures in submerged conditions. Complies to ASTM : D 522 - 93, ASTM : D 7027 - 05, ASTM : B 117 & ASTM : 870-09 Areas of Application Corrosion resistant coating for concrete and metal structures such as } Sewage & Effluent treatment plants } Thermal Power plants - Water intake & outlet channels, ash ponds, coal handling units etc. } Splash zones in dock and harbors } Cross country underground pipelines } Molasses tanks in sugar industry } Storage tanks in fertilizer, petrochemical industry, refineries etc. } Cooling towers } Foundation protection from contaminated soil, backfill and water } Sluice gates } Industrial flooring in chloro alkali plants Features & Benefits } Consistency - low viscosity formulation helps for application by brush or spray. } Adhesion – excellent adhesion to concrete, asbestos & metallic surfaces. } Durability – Gives long lasting corrosion protection. } Abrasion – Resistance to abrasion makes it suitable for application over floors of tanks & concrete rafts before filling the soil. } Chemical resistance – Resistant to wide range of acids, alkali & salt solutions, effluents & sewage. } Primer - Self priming ability, makes it economical. Method of Application 1 SURFACE PREPARATION } Surface must be clean and free from dirt, rust, grease, oil, and loose particles. } Thoroughly clean the concrete surface by harsh wire brushing. Clean the dust by compressed air. If possible, wash the surface with water to remove accumulated dust & dirt to achieve good bonding, } Clean the steel surface to remove rust scales, by wire brushing & scrapping. The best method to clean the surface is sand / grit blasting for best performance. } Rust removers & converter may be used to prepare the steel surfaces. } For new surfaces to clean oil & grease use degreasing solvents, such as turpentine or thinners. } Surface must be dry before application 2 MIXING } Mix both part A & part B components in their individual containers thoroughly. } Transfer the base component [part- A] to hardener component [part – B] container completely. } Mix the material manually using wooden batten or steel spatula thoroughly for 3- 5 min. to achieve uniform mix.
