International, Ceilcote 2000

Ceilcote® 2000 is a high performance, flake filled epoxy novolac coating that is designed to provide maximum resistance to 98% sulphuric acid.

Intended Uses

For use on structural steel exposed to chemical spillage, concrete floors and chemical trenches in process areas, chemical pump pedestals and areas which may be exposed to repeated chemical spillage or fumes.

Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline is employed in many applications in the chemical processing and mining market sectors, where resistance to high concentrations of acid are required.

¹ EU Solvent Emissions Directive (Council Directive 1999/13/EC)

Surface Preparation

All surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry and free from contamination. Prior to paint application all surfaces should be assessed and treated in accordance with ISO 8504:2000.

Oil or grease should be removed in accordance with SSPC-SP1 Solvent Cleaning.

Steel Substrates:
For immersion service or service in humid conditions or elevated temperatures, this product should be applied to surfaces which have been prepared by abrasive blast cleaning to Sa3 (ISO 8501-1:2007), SSPC SP5 or NACE #1. For dry environments, abrasive blast cleaning to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007), SSPC SP10 or NACE #2 will be suitable. A sharp, angular surface profile of 75-100 microns (3-4 mils) is required.

Concrete Substrates:
Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline is also suitable for application to concrete in certain conditions; please see Product Application Guidelines for further information.

Product Characteristics

The detailed Application Guidelines for the relevant Ceilcote system should always be consulted prior to use.

The exact specification with regards to dry film thickness and number of coats will be provided by International Protective Coatings prior to application start up.

Surface temperature must always be a minimum of 3°C (5°F) above dew point. Ensure adequate ventilation is provided throughout application and curing. Dehumidification (DH), air conditioning and/or heating equipment may be necessary to control environmental conditions.

This product can be susceptible to amine blush; if present, wash with water and allow to dry before overcoating.

Relative humidity should be <85 %.

When working outside or in direct sunlight, concrete "gassing" or "breathing" may occur when the surface temperature is rising due to sunlight or increasing ambient temperature. This can cause bubbles or holes in the applied floor, lining or coating. When this problem occurs it is necessary to shade the surface from sunlight and/or apply the material in the cooler evening or at night so that initial cure can take place without air escaping from the concrete. Consult International Protective Coatings for more detailed recommendation.

Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline may be returned to service (for concentrated sulphuric acid immersion service) after the following intervals:
• 20 °C (70 °F): 7 days
• 35 ° C (90 °F): 3 days

However, for immersion service in sulphuric acid at concentrations of 90% or higher, Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline must be post-cured for 6-8 hours at 70ºC (158ºF). Some discolouration of the product may occur. For exposure to 98% sulphuric acid, temperature must not exceed 40ºC (104ºF).

Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline is not intended to be used as a cosmetic finish and colour stability will not be achievable.

Maximum continuous dry temperature resistance for Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline is 120°C (248°F).

Note:
VOC values are typical and are provided for guidance purpose only. These may be subject to variation depending on factors such as differences in colour and normal manufacturing tolerances.

Low molecular weight reactive additives, which will form part of the film during normal ambient cure conditions, will also affect VOC values determined using EPA Method 24.

Systems Compatibility

Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline should be applied to correctly prepared substrates. However, it is suitable for application to the following primers:
• Ceilcote 680M

Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline may also form a constituent part of other systems such as:
• Ceilcote 2000 Ceilline
• Ceilcote 2000MR

Ceilcote 2000 Flakeline should only be overcoated with itself.

Safety Precautions

This product is intended for use only by professional applicators in industrial situations.All work involving the application and use of this product should be performed in compliance with all relevant national Health, Safety and Environmental standards, regulations and legislation.

Proper ventilation must be provided during application and afterwards during curing (refer to product datasheets for typical curing times) to ensure safe limits and prevent fires and explosions. Forced extraction will be required in confined spaces. Ventilation and/or respiratory personal protective equipment (airfed hoods or appropriate cartridge masks) must be provided during application and curing. Take precautions to avoid skin and eye contact (overalls, gloves, goggles, masks, barrier cream, etc).

Before use, obtain, read and then follow the advice given on the Material Safety Data Sheets (Parts A and B if two-pack) and the Health and Safety section of the Coatings Applications Procedures for this product.

In the event that welding or flame cutting is performed on metal coated with this product, dust and fumes will be emitted which will require the use of appropriate personal protective equipment and adequate local exhaust ventilation.

The detailed safety measures are dependent on application methods and the work environment. If you do not fully understand these warnings and instructions or if you cannot strictly comply with them, do not use the product and consult International Protective Coatings.
