NEFTECOR® enamel

Description

Double-packed epoxy enamel.
Used as the top  protective and decorative layer in the complex system with the NEFTECOR  primer. 
The material is thixotropic, has a low content of organic thinners, allows to obtain a thick-layer coating. The coating is resistant to short-term acid solutions attack.
The complex coating  –  NEFTECOR orange primer with NEFTECOR white enamel  –  is applied  for contact with light oil products (aviation fuel).

Recommended use 

Anticorrosive  protection of steel  surfaces  operated under the influence of crude oil, aviation and automobile fuels, lubricating oils, diesel fuel, kerosene, fuel oil, fresh,  sea, "bottom-up" water, alkali solutions.
It is used in  a complex coating with NEFTECOR primer for the painting of oil storage tanks, light and dark petroleum products, pipelines, and other metal structures used in aggressive conditions.
It is used to protect the metal structures used in the soil, immersed in various liquid media.

Certificates, approvals

Certificate of State registration No. RU.77.01.34.008.Е.002296.08.18 dated 28.08.2018.
The NEFTECOR coating system has the decision  of  All-union Pipeline Construction Scientific and Research Institute, FGUP State Research Institute of Civil Aviation.
The coating system is  included in the  TD  “Technical Requirements for Protective Coatings” of Mondi Syktyvkar Forest-Industry Complex, JSC.

Surface preparation

Coating of the NEFTECOR primer layer should be cleaned  of dirt, degreased, if required, and free of dust and moisture.

Application 

• mix the enamel base to a homogeneous condition before application;
• add a hardener to the base with constant stirring and mix thoroughly. 

Mass ratio of base: hardener:
‒ for white color 100:20 hardener EN-05;
‒ for other colors 100:14 hardener EN-14;

• dilute to the working viscosity, if required.

When organizing painting work, it is necessary to take into account the decrease of the pot life of the working mixture (after mixing the components) with increasing temperature.
The material is recommended to be applied in the factory and field conditions:

• white color at a temperature of plus 5 to plus 35 °C and relative  air humidity of not more than 85%;
• other colors at temperatures from minus 5 to plus 35 °C and relative  air  humidity no more than 85%.

The temperature of the surface to be painted must be at least 3 °C above the dew point.
The enamel prepared for application must have a temperature of at least plus 15 °C.
It is recommended to apply 1-2 layers of the enamel by airless spray, brush/roller.

Storage and handling

The  material  is delivered in packages: base and hardener packed in metal buckets and metal cans respectively depending on the set weight.
Storage conditions  –  according to  GOST 9980.5 (at air temperature from minus 40 to plus 35°C). 
The  container  with the material components  shall be stored away from heat sources,  protected from atmospheric condensation and direct sunlight.
The shelf life  is determined by warranty storage  of the base  (24  months) and hardener (specified in quality certificate) starting with the manufacture date.

Precautions

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

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.
