International Interzone 954GF
International Interzone 954GF is a high solids, low VOC epoxy barrier coat, reinforced with chemically resistant high aspect ratio lamellar glass flake for enhanced durability, abrasion and corrosion protection with excellent cathodic disbondment performance.
Best Uses
International Interzone 954GF is suitable for the protection of steelwork in areas where high abrasion and corrosion resistance are required including splashzone and subsea areas of offshore structures, jetties, decks, bridges, chemical plants, pulp and paper mills, water treatment plants and underground pipework.
International Interzone 954GF has excellent resistance to cathodic disbondment, gives good compatibility with both sacrificial anode and impressed current systems, making Interzone 954GF particularly suitable for the long term protection of sub-sea structures. Can be used as part of a non-slip deck system in conjunction with appropriate aggregate.
