| Abstract: |
The Navy requires development of a Low VOC Zinc Rich Epoxy Primer to specify in UFGS-09971 for application to properly prepared steel structures as well as AST. It is believed that metallic zinc in a 80% content in the dry film is required to achieve their goal. Premier Coatings proposes to develop a high solids, high performance, environmentally compliant (-0- 100 g/l), epoxy primer that will meet all the performance requirements of MIL-DTL-24441/19B, F159, Type III, using corrosion barrier pigmentation and additives other than Zinc. It is of our concern, that current and future environmental regulations may be adopted that will cause extreme expense in the removal of a zinc filled primer. We believe that sufficient technology exist today to move forward in the development of a product that will perform equally without the metallic zinc. |
| Benefits: |
Spray, brush or roll applied, environmentally friendly, high performance industrial maintenance epoxy primer. Lower cost for use in the UFGS-09971 specification with equal or exceeding performance than metallic zinc filled epoxy. May potentially be used in applications in the private sector to commercial and industrial structures as a high performance primer. |
