Recommended use

The composition of ALUMOTAN is recommended for corrosion protection of metal structures in the atmosphere, sea and fresh water, aqueous solutions of acids and alkalis, oil and petroleum products. ALUMOTAN is used as a finishing layer in coating systems based on zinc-filled compositions on polyurethane, epoxy and other bases, as well as as an independent coating.

CERTIFICATION

Certificate of state registration No. RU.66.01.40.015.E.000011.01.11 dated 28.01.2011

DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPOSITION OF ALUMOTAN

The composition of ALUMOTAN is used as a protective and decorative coating. The material contains an anticorrosive pigment, which gives the coating increased resistance to the effects of corrosive media. To protect metal structures from corrosion for a long time, ALUMOTAN is recommended to be used in combination with zinc-filled primers. In the complex coating system, ALUMOTAN performs the function of additional barrier protection, isolates the primer layer from environmental influences, thereby preserving its integrity for longer. The combined coating is resistant to spills of sea and fresh water, aqueous solutions of acids and alkalis, oil and petroleum products.

 

For painting metal structures at negative temperatures, ALUMOTAN is recommended to be used with the primers  ZINOTAN and ZFES.

RECOMMENDED CONDITION OF THE PAINTED SURFACE

Before applying the composition ALUMOTAN, the primer  must first be cleaned of dirt, degreased and dust-free.

 

When using the ALUMOTAN composition as an independent coating it is necessary:

 

to degrease the metal surface to the first grade according to GOST 9.402-2004;

to clean  from  scale, rust and traces of old paint to 2  grade  according to  GOST 9.402-2004 (Sa 2  ½  or Sa 2 according to ISO 8501-1:2007).   Power tool  cleaning according to GOST 9.402-2004 to 3 grade (St 2 or St 3 according to ISO 8501-1:2007) is allowed;

to remove dust from the surface.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE OF THE COMPOSITION ALUMOTAN

mix the composition thoroughly to homogenous condition before application;

strain the composition through a grid with a mesh of 0.5 mm (500 μm);

if necessary, dilute to working viscosity before application;

in case of pause, limit contact with air (cover the bucket with the composition: put down the lid).

Apply in factory and field conditions at  temperatures from minus 15 °C to plus 40 °C and relative humidity from 30 % to 98 %.

 

When the relative humidity of the ambient  air rises, the drying time of the coating shortens In factory conditions, with relative humidity less than 30 %, to shorten (in 1.5 - 2.5 times) the drying time, it is recommended to use a drying agent composition for polyurethane paint materials (TU 2359 -047-12288779-2005).

 

The holding time of the primer before application of the ALUMOTAN composition at temperature of (20±2) °С and relative air humidity (65±5) %:

 

ZINOTAN coating – not less than 4 hours;

ZFES coating – not less than 6 hours;

ZINEP coating – not less than 4 hours.

When applying several layers of ALUMOTAN coating, each subsequent layer should be applied after the previous one has dried to "tack" (slight touch on the coating does not leave a trace and does not give a feeling of stickiness).

 

Drying of the coating is natural.
