144PA1NL
CAR3719

Carboline Plasite 7159 is a two-component, water-resistant epoxy coating polymerized with a polyamine type curing agent. Also a high-performance lining for elevated temperature and pressure immersion services in high purity water, as well as the oil/water separating processes encountered in the petroleum industry.

  • Easy-to-apply high performance thin film lining
  • Protects high temperature demineralised water immersion 100°C
  • Recommended in high pressure three phase service up to 121°C 
  • Resists strong oxidizer and acid immersion
  • Can be air dried or force cured for prompt service

  • With adequate ventilation when applying at temperatures above 21°C coating surfaces will normally be tack free in 2-4 hours

  • The chart above outlines the cure for service (immersion) times when the force cure schedule below is followed

Force Cure

  • Note: Temperatures listed for 54°C and above are for force cure
  • Force curing at elevated temperature will increase resistance to certain exposures. When exposure is severe, force curing is recommended to obtain maximum resistance and service life
  • Allow an air dry time of 16-24 hours @ 10-21°C before heat curing. When applying at temperatures above 21°C allow 2-5 hours air dry time
  • After air drying, the substrate temperature should be raised by approximately 17°C each 30 minutes until the desired force cure temperature is reached
  • Final cure may be checked by exposing coated surface to MIBK for ten minutes. If no dissolving and only minor softening of film occurs the curing can be considered complete. The film should reharden after exposure if cured



Surface Preparation


General

  • Remove any oil or grease from surface to be coated in accordance with SSPC-SP1

Steel

  • SSPC-SP10; Surface Profile should be dense angular 50-75 µ (2.0-3.0 mils)

Aluminium

  • Surface shall be clean and grease-free with a blast produced anchor pattern or “tooth” as described earlier under steel. In addition, the blasted surface shall be given a chemical treatment

Stainless Steel

  • Profile should be dense angular 50-75 µ (2.0-3.0 mils)
  • Remove all surface contaminants that would interfere with the performance of stainless steel for the intended service such as, but not limited to, imbedded iron or chlorides



Application Methods


Product Information
Mixing:

Thoroughly mix part A and B separately, then add part B slowly to the part A and mix completely

The coating should stand approximately 30 minutes after the curing agent has been thoroughly mixed in

Thinning:

PLASITE Thinner 71 is recommended for normal application temperatures and conditions

PLASITE Thinner 19 is recommended for above normal application temperatures and where tank design requires a slower evaporating thinner to help control overspray. The amounts of thinner required will vary depending on air and surface temperatures and application equipment

Normal application temperatures and conditions will require the addition of approximately 10% by volume with approximately 5% additional thinner added for each 3°C of increased temperature

Airless spray equipment and above normal temperatures require additional thinning

It is recommended that the thinner included on each order amount to approximately 20% of the coating order

Ratio: 4:1 A:B
Pot Life: Approximately 8 to 10 hours at 6°C
Conventional Spray:

Pressure pot equipped with dual regulators, 3/8” I.D. minimum material hose, .070” I.D. fluid tip and appropriate air cap

Adjust air pressure to approximately 50 psi at the gun and provide 10-20 lbs. of pot pressure

Airless Spray:

Apply a “mist” bonding pass

Allow to dry approximately one minute but not long enough to allow film to completely dry. Apply crisscross multi-passes, moving gun at fairly rapid rate, maintaining a wet appearing film

Fast multi-passes may be applied until you have a wet film thickness of approximately 150-200 µ (6-8 mil). Repeat this procedure for the second coat to obtain an 200-300 µ (8-12 mil) DFT

Brush:

Recommended for small areas only. Use medium bristle brush

Not recommended for tank lining applications except when striping welds

Avoid excessive re-brushing for best results

Roller:

Not recommended for tank lining applications except when striping welds

Use a short-nap synthetic roller with phenolic core



Health and Safety


Clean Up

Safety

  • Observe the precautionary notices on the container label, and read the material safety data sheet before use
  • Employ normal workmanlike safety precautions

Ventilation

  • When used in enclosed areas, thorough air circulation must be used during and after application until the coating is cured
  • The ventilation system should be capable of preventing the solvent vapor concentration from reaching the lower explosion limit for the solvents used
  • User should test and monitor exposure levels to ensure all personnel are below guidelines
  • If not sure or if not able to monitor levels, use MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied air respirator
  • Refer to the product data sheet and safety data sheets in the attachments section above for further details
