PLASITE® 9057
Formerly PLASGUARD 9057
TYPE PHYSICAL SPECIFICATIONS
A low VOC epoxy coating polymerized with a polyamine-type curing
agent. Pigments: Iron oxide and inerts.
INTENDED USE Solids: 92% ± 2% by weight; 79% ± 2% by volume.
Primarily as a tank lining and heavy duty maintenance coating with
low temperature cure properties. Pot Life: Approximately 1 hour at 70°F.
TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE Shelf Life: 24 months at 70°F. Material in stock should be turned
Dry film basis is 350°F/177°C for short periods. Continuous upside down every 3 months.
