Carboline Plasite 4550 S is a two-component, 100% solids, flake filled, premium novolac epoxy coating designed for internal steel and concrete substrates. It is a two-component system consisting of four-parts by volume of Part A resin and one part by volume of Part B hardener. It is applied by plural component or single component spray equipment, from a total thickness of 500-1500 microns in a single coat application for a variety of applications. This product has been tested and is approved for crude oil storage and transportation up to 177°C (350°F).
It has superior thermal shock resistance over the range -40 to 177°C (-40° to 350°F). Typical Uses: Crude oil tankers, chemical storage tanks, wastewater clarifiers, plating vats, oil storage tanks, catwalks, pulp and paper liquor tanks or concrete exposures in wastewater applications.

Shelf Life: | Part A: 6 months to 24 months Part B: 24 months The film build (per coat) will decrease with age of the part A as follows but the cure mechanism and performance is not affected 3 months or less: Over 1524 microns (60 mils) is typical 3-6 months: 762-1270 microns (30-50 mils) is typical 6 months or older: Can be less than 762 microns (30 mils) Follow intercoat preparation requirements when applying multiple coats |
Storage Temperature: | 10-29°C (50-85°F) For 24-48 hours prior to use narrow the storage temperature to 21-29°C (70-85°F) to facilitate ease of mixing |

Mixing: | Mix each component separately to a smooth, uniform consistency. Any settling in the container must be thoroughly scraped and re-dispersed. Use a Jiffy type mixer and avoid plunging it up and down in the bucket, which can fold air into the resin causing bubbles to form in the coating after it has been applied |
For touch-up only: Jiffy type mixers are recommended for all mixing and stirring. Avoid plunging the mixer up and down in the bucket. This can fold air into the resin which may cause bubbles to form in the coating after it has been applied. Individually stir separately Part A and Part B to a smooth uniform consistency and colour. Any sediment in the container must be thoroughly scraped up and re-dispersed | |
Thinning: | Thinning not normally required. Use of thinners other than those supplied or recommended by Carboline may adversely affect product performance and void product warranty, whether expressed or implied |
Pot Life: | 24°C (75°F): 45-60 minutes |
General: | Lining Repair: Before any touch up or recoat material can be applied the first coat must be properly prepared for intercoat adhesion. The first coat must be cured firm to touch. Coating on floors must be able to support foot traffic. Scrub the first coat with soap and water and thoroughly rinse and dry If the first coat cures more than 24 hours, sand or mechanically abrade the surface after scrubbing it down. Any surface to be touched up or recoated should be protected. When the recoat material is applied the surface must be dry and free of all dirt, dust, debris, oil, grease or other contamination |
Airless Spray: | Use air motor with an air ratio of 42:1 or larger All filters should be removed from the pump. Use a 3/8 in. spray hose from pump to gun, not to exceed 100 linear ft It is best to bring the material directly to the gun body and not go through a tube in the handle. The size of airless spray tip should be from 0.019-0.035 inches The mixed material temperature should be 24-38°C/75-85°F for best spraying properties. Temperatures above 29°C (85°F) will shorten pot life |
Immediately before applying spray coat, stripe all continuous welds and edges with a brush coat to assure adequate protection of these areas Apply material to specified thickness using 200-350 microns (8-14 mil) per pass Apply in a crisscross, multi-pass technique, moving gun at a fairly rapid rate and maintaining a wet-appearing film Use a wet film gauge to monitor film build | |
Plural Component Airless Spray: | Use a fixed (4:1) ratio plural component spray rig with heated hoppers, heated hoses to a mixer manifold through a static mixer to a 50 ft whip hose and self-cleaning reversible tips from 0.017" to 0.035" The Part A material should be a minimum of 43°C (110°F) and the Part B should be 32-38°C (90-100°F). Take care to prevent mixed material from setting up in your hoses For best results keep hoses as short as possible, purge them immediately with Carboline Thinner 76 if work is interrupted, keep them out of direct sunlight and insulated from hot surfaces |
