POLYGLASS
Polyglass Anti–Static
Product reference: 2/04
Product title: Polyglass Anti-Static
Valid from: 12th December 2011
Last reviewed: May 2019
Type: An electrically conductive two pack cold cured acrylated ester system loaded
with flaked graphite and glassflake designed to dissipate static electricity.
Suggested use
As a conductor layer for preventing static build up. It can be
used as a surface veil to other Corrocoat products
Limitations
Moderate abrasion and erosion resistance
Health & safety
Before handling or using this product, the material safety
data sheet should be read, and all precautions observed
Surface preparation
Metals: Grit blast to SSPC-SP10 (ISO 8501-1 Sa 2½
near 3) or equivalent. (For full detail refer to Corrocoat
Surface Prep SP1).
Concrete: Refer to Corrocoat data sheet SP5.
Mixing ratio
98:2 parts base to hardener. For mixing instructions use the
Polyglass Application Data Sheet. This product behaves in
a similar manner, but the addition of inhibitor should only be
made after first checking the suitability with Corrocoat.
Storage life
6 months stored at temperatures below 68°F (20°C) and away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Frequenttemperature cycling will shorten storage life. See other information for extension of shelf life.
Color availability
Black only.
Recommended DFT
500-1000mm multiple coats. 20 mils (500 microns) when applied under or over other Corrocoat products.
Pot life
Approximately 1 hour at 68°F (20°C). Pot life will decrease at
higher temperatures and increase at lower temperatures.
Seek the advice of Corrocoat USA for availability of
inhibitor.
Hardness
32 Barcol (approximate).
Volume solids
This material contains volatile liquid convertible to solids. Volume solids obtained will vary dependent uponpolymerization conditions. Nominally 99.3% of the contents are convertible to solid.
Elongation
0.9%.
Practical spreading rate
29 sf per gallon (0.71 m²/litre) @ 1mm.NOTE: This information is given in good faith, but usage may vary dependent upon environment conditions, the geometry and nature of work undertaken and the skill and care of application. Corrocoat accepts no responsibility forany deviation from these values.
Specific gravity
0.05 lbs/cubic inch (1.24 gms/cc)
Temperature limits
230°F (110°C)
immersed. 347°F
(175°C) nonimmersed. No lower
limit.
Theoretical spreading rate
Approximately 40 sf per gallon (0.98 m²/litre) @ 1mm.
Overcoating
May take place as soon as previous coat has gelled
sufficiently to resist movement of next application and while
still tacky. Maximum overcoating without treatment: 48
hours. Shorter at ambient temperatures above 86° (30°C).
Once the maximum overcoating time has been reached,
adhesion values attained by any subsequent coat willreduce
dramatically.It is important to observe maximum overcoating
times and note these will vary with climatic conditions. Any
further application of coating at this juncture should be
treated as a repair, with the surface flash blasted to provide a
physical key.
Mixing ratio
98:2 parts base to hardener. For mixing instructions use the
Polyglass Application Data Sheet. This product behaves in
a similar manner, but the addition of inhibitor should only be
made after first checking the suitability with Corrocoat.
Application equipment
45:1 ratio airless pump fitted with 10mm nylon lined hoses.
Spray gun should be fitted with a clean by reversing tip in the
range 40 to 60 thou. As a guide, a typical tip size would be
47 thou with a 60° fan pattern. The size of tip and fan pattern
will vary dependent upon the nature of the work. May also be
applied by brush.
Packaging
1 Gallon and 5 Gallon Kits
Application
When used on its own Polyglass Anti-Static should be applied
in at least two layers to a minimum DFT of 40 mils (1000
microns).
Each coat should be applied to a WFT between 24-40 mils
(600-1000) microns by multi pass wet on wet spray
technique. When used as a surface veil for Corroglass
materials it should also be applied in two coats to a DFT of
20 mils (500 microns) with the Corroglass/Polyglass AntiStatic combination being not less than 40 mils (100
Thinners
DO NOT THIN. The addition of Styrene may substantially affect the chemical resistance of this product, particularly where post curing is not carried out. NO OTHER DILUTENT ORTHINNER SHOULD BE USED. THE USE OF ACETONE OR SIMILAR THINNERS WILL SEVERELY AFFECT PRODUCT PERFORMANCE.
Flash point
79°F (26°C).
Catalyst type
Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide Corrocoat Type P2-45
Flash point
79°F (26°C).
Mixing ratio
98:2 base to catalyst.
Cleaning fluid
Acetone or Methyl Ethyl Ketone before gel.
Cure time
At 68°F (20°C), 90% cure will be attained within 8
hours. Full cure for chemical resistance will be 6 days.
Cure time may be shortened and a beneficial increase
in final cure may be attained by heat treatment. Consult
Corrocoat USA for specific information. Although not
fully cured, after gel has occurred, this product may be
immersed in some environments without detriment to
the coating.
