Carboline Phenoline 353 LT is a two-component, highly cross-linked epoxy lining with extraordinary overall chemical resistance and versatility. It has a unique blend of resins that make it highly resistant to a variety of aggressive cargos like ethanol, gasolines, gasoline blends, biodiesel, fuel oils, and others.
Outstanding overall chemical resistance
Dense, highly cross-linked film for superior barrier protection
Carboline Phenoline 353 LT is a two-component, highly cross-linked epoxy lining with extraordinary overall chemical resistance and versatility. It has a unique blend of resins that make it highly resistant to a variety of aggressive cargos like ethanol, gasolines, gasoline blends, biodiesel, fuel oils, and others. It can be used is both acidic and high temperature caustic exposures. Markets served are terminals, refineries, petrochemical, wastewater, railcar linings, and many others. This low temperature cure formulation allows application and curing down to 2°C.
Dense, highly cross-linked film for superior barrier protection
Excellent abrasion resistance and toughness
Well-suited for hydrocarbon exposures
Cures down to 2°C
Product Specification
Technical Data
Carboline Phenoline 353 LT
Volume Solids:
76% +/- 2%
Theoretical Coverage Rate:
29.9 m²/l at 25 microns
6.0 m²/l at 125 microns
4.3 m²/l at 175 microns
Allow for loss in mixing and application
Dry Film Thickness:
127 - 178 microns per coat
Two coats are generally recommended to 254-356 microns total DFT
Total thickness not to exceed 18 mils
HAPs Values:
As supplied: 1.35 lbs/solid gallon
These are nominal values and may vary by colour
VOC Values:
As Supplied: 197 g/l
These are nominal values and may vary slightly with colour
Dry Temp. Resistance:
Continuous: 121°C
Non-Continuous: 149°C
Limitations:
Linings exposed to cargos warmer than the outside steel temperature are subject to a “cold-wall” effect. The smaller the temperature differential the less negative effect on performance
Epoxies lose gloss, discolour, and eventually chalk in sunlight exposure

Part B: 13°C
Mixed: 32°C
Shelf Life:
Part A and B: Min. 24 months at 24°C

These times are based on a 125-175 micron dry film thickness and adequate ventilation for the release of solvents for proper cure
Higher film thickness, insufficient ventilation or cooler temperatures will require longer cure times and could result in solvent entrapment, delamination between coats and premature failure
Excessive humidity or condensation on the surface during curing can interfere with the cure, can cause discoloration, and may result in a surface haze. Any haze or blush must be removed by water washing before recoating
If the maximum recoat time is exceeded, the surface must be abraded prior to the application of additional coats
Note: It is recommended to cure above 16°C for aggressive service

Surface Preparation
General
Surfaces must be clean and dry
Employ adequate methods to remove dirt, dust, oil and all other contaminants that could interfere with adhesion of the coating
Steel
Immersion: SSPC-SP10 minimum
Profile: 38-75 microns
Concrete or CMU
Immersion: Concrete must be cured 28 days at 24°C and 50% relative humidity or equivalent. Prepare surfaces in accordance with ASTM D4258-92 Surface Cleaning of Concrete and ASTM D4259 Abrading Concrete. Voids in concrete may require surfacing
Application Methods
Product Information
Mixing:
Power mix separately, then combine and power mix. Use material immediately after mixing
Use of thinners other than those supplied or recommended by Carboline may adversely affect product performance and void product warranty, whether expressed or implied

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
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 sheet 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
In addition to ensuring proper ventilation, appropriate respirators must be used by all application personnel
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
