Thurmalox 70 Air Dry Silicone Coating for Stainless Steel

Prevents Stress Corrosion Cracking Heat Resistant to 1000 F Thurmalox 70 is an air drying, silicone based heat resistant coating for metal that protects thermally insulated austenitic stainless steel from chloride induced stress corrosion cracking. Thurmalox 70 withstands temperatures to 1000 F (538 C) with peaks to 1100 F (593 C). It is formulated to contain the minimum amounts of attainable chlorides, halides, sulfides, nitrates and metals that induce external stress corrosion cracking. Every batch of Thurmalox 70 is tested by an independent laboratory for leachable chloride content. This silicone coating for metal is formulated to meet the currently accepted practice for selection of protective coatings for stainless steel surfaces under thermal insulation as set forth in NACE Technical Committee Report 6H189 “A State-of-the-Art Report of Protective Coatings for Carbon Steel and Austenitic Stainless Steel Surfaces Under Thermal Insulation”.

FAQs ABout Our PC-517 Poly-Chemcure Coating

PC-517 Poly-Chemcure Coating is designed for a variety of surfaces, including steel, concrete, and other industrial substrates. It is particularly effective for protecting steel tanks, pipelines, and structural components exposed to corrosive environments. The coating adheres well to properly prepared surfaces, ensuring optimal performance and durability.

The recommended application process for PC-517 Poly-Chemcure Coating involves thorough surface preparation to remove contaminants like rust, grease, or old coatings, typically through abrasive blasting for optimal adhesion. Once the surface is clean and dry, the coating components should be mixed according to the manufacturer’s instructions until a uniform consistency is achieved. The coating can be applied using a brush, roller, or spray equipment, depending on the project requirements and surface type. Multiple coats may be necessary for enhanced protection, with proper curing time allowed between layers to ensure durability and performance.

PC-517 offers exceptional resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including acids, alkalis, and solvents. It is also highly resistant to abrasions, making it suitable for areas subject to mechanical wear. Its robust formulation protects against environmental factors such as UV radiation, moisture, and temperature fluctuations, ensuring long-lasting performance in harsh conditions.

The typical curing time for PC-517 varies depending on temperature, humidity, and coating thickness. Under standard conditions (approximately 25°C/77°F and low humidity), the coating may cure within 24–48 hours. Full curing for maximum chemical and abrasion resistance usually takes 7–10 days. Factors like lower temperatures, higher humidity, or inadequate ventilation can extend curing time.

Yes, PC-517 is engineered to perform well in high-temperature environments and extreme conditions. Its heat-resistant formulation ensures stability and adhesion in temperatures up to its specified limits. Additionally, it withstands harsh industrial settings, including exposure to aggressive chemicals, mechanical impacts, and fluctuating environmental conditions, making it a reliable choice for demanding applications.
