International Interline 955

International Interline 955 is a two component, chemical and abrasion resistant, glass flake reinforced vinyl ester for the internal lining of chemical storage tanks and vessels where acidic chemicals or hot media are to be stored.

Best Uses

Interline 955 is primarily intended for the internal lining of chemical storage tanks and vessels where acidic chemicals or hot media are to be stored, such as in oil, gas and chemical processing, pulp and paper plants, and for structural steelwork in environments where frequent contact with corrosive chemicals is likely to occur.

Application

All surfaces to be coated should be clean, dry and free from contamination. Prior to paint application all surfaces should be assessed and treated in accordance with ISO 8504:2000. Oil or grease should be removed in accordance with SSPC-SP1 solvent cleaning.

Steel Substrates
Abrasive blast clean to Sa2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007) or SSPC-SP10. If oxidation has occurred between blasting and application of Interline 955, the surface should be reblasted to the specified visual standard. Surface defects revealed by the blast cleaning process should be ground, filled, or treated in the appropriate manner. A sharp, angular surface profile of 75-100 microns (3-4 mils) is recommended.

If a holding primer is required for Interline 955 then the use of Interline 949 is advised (see system compatibility). Alternatively, the blast standard can be maintained by the use of dehumidification.

Shop Primed Steel
Prior to application of Interline 955, all shop primed steelwork must be re-blasted to a visual standard as outlined above.

Concrete Substrates
Concrete should be well cured prior to application of the flooring, lining or coating system. Refer to the Concrete Surface Preparation Guidelines for more information.

Material is supplied in two containers as a unit. Always mix a complete unit in the proportions supplied. Once the unit has been mixed it must be used within the working pot life specified. Agitate Base (Part A) with a power agitator. Combine entire contents of Curing Agent (Part B) with Base (Part A) and mix thoroughly with power agitator.
