constructive solutions
Chemical resistance Samples of Nitocote EPW100 coating have been subjected to constant immersion at 300C for 3 months in the following chemicals and have been found to be unaffected. Dilute Sulphuric acid Dilute Citric acid Dilute Sodium Hydroxide Ammonia 10% solution Oil and grease Petrol Tap water Good housekeeping is essential in areas where chemical spillage is likely to occur. It is especially important that such spillage should not be allowed to dry as higher concentrations of chemicals are involved. Where chemicals at higher temperatures are involved , Fosroc shall be contacted.
Application instructions
Preparation Surfaces to be treated should be clean and free from all contamination. Oil or grease should be removed by suitable means, followed by washing off with clean water. Excess laitence should be removed by etching with Reebaklens followed by washing off with clean water. Mixing The paste component of Nitocote EPW100 coating system shall be added to the hardener component and then stirred for a period of 3 minutes followed by addition of base. The resultant mix is further mixed for a period of 2 - 3 minutes. The use of a slow speed drill fitted with a paddle is recommended. Coating The mixed Nitocote EPW100 coating shall be applied to the prepared and cleaned surface, using a brush or lambswool roller. ensuring that the area is completely coated and that 'ponding' of the material does not occur as water may be trapped and the material will not cure completely. The second coat may be applied as soon as the first coat has initially dried. The time will be dependant on the type of surface and ambient conditions but will be in the range of 24 hours at 30 0C. Temperature limitations
Full cure
Minimum application temperature is 200C. Note : After the usable life has expired, the material although not hardned, increases in viscosity and the characteristics of the product change. Excess material should be discarded after this point. page 1 of 2

Estimating
Packaging and coverage Nitocote EPW100 is supplied in 4 litre packs. The coverage of Nitocote EPW100 coating depends to a large extent on the substrate and site conditions. For calculation purpose 20 - 22m2 /pack /per coat @ 180 microns WFT (100 microns DFT) can be taken as the coverage. Storage Nitocote EPW100 coating should be stored under normal warehouse conditions, and must be protected from frost. Shelf life 6 months in unopened containers.
Precautions
Health & Safety instructions Since some people are sensitive to epoxy resins, gloves, goggles and barrier creams should be used when handling these products.
