ISOLEP®-primer

Description

Double-packed epoxy primer with high solids, consisting of a base and a polyamine hardener.
Contains anti-corrosive pigments: zinc phosphate (corrosion inhibitor) and iron mica (barrier-layer effect).
High-build fast-drying coating, especially recommended for application in plant conditions.

Recommended use

Anticorrosion protection of steel articles and structures operated in the atmospheric conditions of all macroclimatic areas, types of environment and placement categories in accordance with GOST 15150. Coating is recommended for application as an independent coating or in complex coating systems with coating enamels produced by VMP: ISOLEP-mio (TU 2312-050-12288779-2005), POLITON-UR (UV) (TU 20.30.12-033-12288779-2018), POLITON-UR (TU 2312-029-12288779-2002) and VINICOR-62 (TU 20.30.12-001-54359536-2018); with flame retardants PLAMСOR-2 (TU 2313-074-12288779-2008), PLAMСOR-3 (TU 2312-087-12288779-2012) and PLAMCOR-5 (TU 20.30.12-104-12288779-2017), as well as with other epoxy, vinyl-epoxy and polyurethane enamels.

Surface preparation

• to degrease metal surface to 1 grade according to GOST 9.402;
• to do abrasive blast cleaning to 2 grade according to GOST 9.402 (Sa 2 1/2 according to ISO 8501-1).
• to remove dust.

Before the application of coating enamels, the primer coating ISOLEP-primer must be decontaminated, degreased and dustless.

Application

• mix the primer base to a homogeneous condition before application;
• add a hardener to the primer base mixing ratio by volume 3:1, respectively), after mixing, the primer is ready for application;
• dilute with the thinner to the working viscosity immediately before application, if necessary.

The primer shall be applied at plant and field conditions at temperatures from minus 10 °C to plus 40 °C and relative air humidity not exceeding 85 %. 
The temperature of the primer during application should be not less than 15 °C to ensure necessary processing characteristics.
When applying a primer using spraying method in the places of "spray overlap", the effect of "glossiness" of the coating is possible.
Drying of the coating is natural. The drying time of the coating depends on the temperature – as it increases the drying time shortens.
The holding time of the ISOLEP-primer coating prior to packaging and shipment at a temperature of (23±2)°C is 24 hours; the time of full hardening of the coating is 7 days.

Storage and handling

The primer is delivered in packages: base and hardener packed in metal buckets and metal cans respectively depending on the set weight.
Storage conditions – in accordance with GOST 9980.5 (at air temperature from minus 40 to plus 40 °C). The material components shall be protected from direct sunlight and atmospheric condensation.
Shelf life of the components - 24 months starting with the manufacture date.

Precautions

When working with the primer, the existing sectoral standard norms and requirements and safety measures as specified on the package label shall be observed.
Personal protective equipment (goggles, face masks and respirators) shall be used, and inhalation of thinners and contact of the composition substances with skin, ocular mucosa, respiratory channels shall be avoided; use inside the premises is allowed only in case sufficient ventilation is provided.
The primer is classified as a fire-hazardous material. 

The information is of general character, without consideration to the object specific nature. Use of materials for other purposes not specified here or in case other influencing factors are present shall be approved by the  VMP Holding CJSC  in writing. In case of absence of such approval the manufacturer is not held liable for the improper use of the material and the buyer falls from the right to present claims connected with the coating quality.
