Description: Coal Tars
These refined coal tars are produced from selected high temperature coke oven tars. These coal tars are liquid at room temperature at various viscosities.
Paint Formulators Raw Materials Products:
These products are used in the manufacture of protective coatings. They can be used in paint formulations with resins, plastics, elastomers, urethane and epoxy systems.
Recommended uses for Coal Tar Protective Coatings:
Chemical Tank Linings, Concrete Structures, Cooling Tower Piping, Pipelines, Fireproofing Primer, Insulation Primer, Marine (fresh water inland) underside, sides and rakes of barges Marine (saltwater, heavy marine) underside of barges and ships Marine (tank lining), Ballast tanks, sour crude tanks , Oil Production, Oil Production (off shore), Underwater portions of oil rigs, Rebars, Structural Steel, Transmission Poles, Chemical Waste Treatment Areas, Municipal Waste Water Treatment Plants, Marine Structures, Marine Pilings, Underground Steel tanks.
Benefits of Coal Tar Epoxy coatings:
- Passes the ASTM B 117 Salt Spray test
- Low permeability
- Excellent film continuity
- Excellent coating adhesion Minimum effect of Cathodic Disbondment (ASTM G42-75)
- Excellent impact resistance (ASTM G14-77)
- Excellent abrasion resistance
Coal Tars
These refined coal tars are produced from selected high temperature coke oven tars. These coal tars are liquid at room temperature at various viscosities.
- EStar 2000 – A low viscosity coal tar solution.
- EStar 5000 – A higher viscosity coal tar solution. Meets MIL-T-15194A and Navy 52-T-5-A. Equivalent to Allied Signal’s CP524
Coal Tar Pitch and Asphalt Cutbacks:-
These refined coal tar pitches and asphalts are cutback in various solvent to give a wide range of viscosities. These cutbacks are liquid at room temperature.
- ESV 250-20 – A low softening point coal tar pitch cutback in 20% xylene.
- ES X-8020 – A high softening point coal tar pitch cut back in 20% xylene. This vehicle meets the Corps of Engineers C-200 specification and SSPC 16.
- ES C-6040-A – medium softening point coal tar pitch cut back in 40% high boiling aromatic solvent.
