Acid Proof Epoxy Cement
Acid Proof Epoxy Cement is Epoxy based cement. Epoxy is a paste type epoxy based resin cement and resistant to non – oxidizing acids, alkalies, salts and solvents and can withstand maximum temperature 100oC. Epoxy is widely applicable and versatile material in corrosion Technology. It is available in three component system the solution, the catalyst and the powder. The catalyst is added to about 10 percent on the weight of solution. The powders are available in various aggregate combinations depending on environmental requirements and is added from 3 to 6 times the solution. After adding the catalyst or the harder to the solution add the powder slowly while stirring to make even and uniform paste.
