A case study: Novel low VOC, low viscosity epoxy, enabling high solids systems

 
High Solids which typically have undesired characteristics including high viscosity, poor sprayability, and reduced corrosion resistance. In 2017, a field study of these systems demonstrated excellent performance with increased productivity for asset owners and contractors while reducing VOC content. During the trial, three systems were tested with the goal to confirm the new Epoxy Resin is robust enough to enable thin film, high build, and application efficiencies while performing in three-layer zinc rich, barrier systems and two-layer barrier system. This paper will review the two-year results of this field trial, with emphasis on the performance results of the three systems.
