External and Internal Coating of Industrial Water Tank in Italian Refinery with Ceramic-Polymer Brand Products

External and Internal Coating of Industrial Water Tank in Italian Refinery with Ceramic-Polymer Products
The refurbishment of the huge industrial water tank was conducted with Chesterton’s sucessful surface tolerant coating products, which deliver with only 1 layer reliable corrosion protection for demanding scopes of application – that signifies essential advantages in comparison to multi-layered coatings.
Our efficient premium coatings CERAMIC-POLYMER STP-EP and
CERAMIC-POLYMER STP-EP-HV are applied easily by airless spraying method or conventional handtools. Both products are qualified for high internal and external protection requirements. In combina-
tion with the A1-Topcoat PROGUARD 169 (37 corrosion control on highest level is provided.
Technical Details
Project: External and internal coating of tank for industrial water
Coated area: 3.150 m2
Coating products and layer thicknesses
Internal: Ceramic-Polymer STP-EP-HV; 500 µm
External: Ceramic-Polymer STP-EP; 200 µm
Proguard 169(37); 70 µm
Internal coating: CERAMIC-POLYMER STP-EP-HV is the „high viscosity“ version of the high-performance STP-EP-series. This surface tolerant two pack ceramic composite epoxy coating provides reliable corrosion protection with high chemical resistance and abrasion stability. The product can be simply applied by airless spraying in one thick layer to achieve comprehensive protection properties at minimum application costs. For this project one layer of 500 µm was applied to obtain durable resistance against the industrial water.
External prime coat: CERAMIC-POLYMER STP-EP; the thin-film coating offers long-lasting corrosion protection for extremely aggressive atmospheres. It features the perfect anti-corrosive basis for high-quality topcoats. For the protection of the water tank, only one layer of 200 µm was applied by airless spraying method. After a few hours of curing the area could be overcoated with the Topcoat.
External finishing: PROGUARD 169 (37) is a 2-component highly-crosslinked polyurethane coating. Chesterton’s Topcoat provides resistances according to ISO 12944-2, corrosivity class C5. Therefore, it is the ideal product for demanding industrial environments. PROGUARD 169 (37) is available in RAL and NCS colors, it can be applied in one thin layer and shows fast curing. In this case a layer of 70 µm was applied by airless spraying.

The Chesterton International GmbH produces high-quality, solvent-free protective coatings for different kinds of industries. Due to the integration of microscopic ceramic and other special particles, coating systems with outstanding physical properties such as excellent chemical resistances, high temperature stabilities and extreme abrasion resistances are generated.
The Chesterton International coatings are applied directly on the blasted substrate (e.g. steel, stainless steel, concrete) without the previous use of a primer. In this way extreme adhesion is achieved. The scopes of the Chesterton coatings are for instance all kinds of storage tanks, pipelines or process vessels for the oil & gas industry as well as different maritime constructions, waste water or drinking water applications.
