Heat Resistant coatings for Chemical Industries

The book focused on Heat resistant properties of paint. The epoxy ¿silicone paint developing newer means for its widespread applications . The development of Paints is mainly based on performance requirement and economic considerations. Epoxy resin has the good corrosion, weather and UV resistant properties, good wet ability and silicon resin have high heat resistant properties. Due to their combination of organic epoxy functionality with inorganic silicone functionality, silicone epoxy systems are generally referred to as ¿hybrid coatings.¿ By applications of this paint, it is possible to prevent the heat losses from the surface of equipment used in Chemical industries such as heat exchangers, evaporators, pipes, Steam pipes, smoke stack, reactors, petro-chemical & water tanks, boilers, furnaces structure, chimneys, storage tanks, incinerators also in automotive, aircraft exhaust equipment due to its high heat resistant property. This paint can have provision for maximum corrosion protection especially that occurs in metal surfaces.
