Carboline Phenoline 187 VOC is a two-component, high solids epoxy lining with exceptional chemical resistance. Primarily as a tank lining, it is recommended for storage of crude oil 82°C, demineralized water 65°C, tap water 93°C food and beverage industries, and water and wastewater exposures. Is excellent as a protective coating under insulation, operating at 204°C. Outstanding resistance to wet/dry cycling conditions at these elevated temperatures.

Features and Benefits

• High solids; Low VOC formula
• VOC compliant to current AIM regulations
• Excellent overall chemical resistance
• Excellent for crude-oil storage
• Excellent resistance up to 204°C
• Excellent abrasion and thermal shock resistance

Product Specification

Drying Times

• These times are based on a 100-150 µ dry film thickness.
• Excessive humidity or condensation on the surface during curing can interfere with the cure, can cause discolouration, and may result in a surface haze. Any haze or blush must be removed by water washing before recoating
• If the maximum recoat times have been exceeded, the surface must be abraded by sweep blasting or sanding prior to the application of additional coats
• Food-grade exposures require force curing at 107°C for four hours. Raise temperature 17°C for every 30 minutes until temperature is reached

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

Stainless Steel

• Profile should be dense angular 50-75 µ
• 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

Application Conditions

• This product simply requires the substrate temperature to be above the dew point
• Condensation due to substrate temperatures below the dew point can cause flash rusting on prepared steel and interfere with proper adhesion to the substrate
• Special application techniques may be required above or below normal application conditions

Health and Safety

Clean Up

• Use Thinner 2 or Acetone
• In case of spillage, absorb and dispose of in accordance with local applicable regulations

Safety

• Read and follow all caution statements on this product data sheet and on the safety data sheets for this product and use personal protective equipment as directed
• 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 insure all personnel are below guidelines
• If not sure or if not able to monitor levels, use MSHA/NIOSH approved supplied air respirator

Caution

• This product contains flammable solvents. Keep away from sparks and open flames
• All electrical equipment and installations should be made and rounded in accordance with applicable local regulations
• In areas where explosion hazards exist workers should be required to use non-ferrous tools and wear conductive and non-sparking shoes

• Refer to the product data sheet and safety data sheets in the attachments section above for further details
