Holding primers provide extended overcoating time period after blast cleaning. Holding primers allow application of following

coating layer in the paint system without mechanical treatment thus save time and cost.

Actual cost is sum of all the costs paid during the service life of the paint systems. LCC* can

be kept in minimum by properly selected protective coating systems.

Costs caused by unexpected failures;

Downtime of the storage tank systems for maintenance

Possible product leakage and energy loss

Environmental damages

Renewal of parts

*LCC: Life Cycle Cost

Holding primers offer particularly Life Cycle Cost (LCC*) optimization.

KANAT produces novalac epoxy paints designed specifically for fast drying even at low temperatures. The system

has very long overcoating window with excellent adhesion and elasticity. Immersion resistance to fuels, wide range

of acids, solvents and water is excellent.

GLASS FLAKE REINFORCED EPOXY COATINGS

PROTECTIVE COATINGS FOR STEEL SURFACES UNDER INSULATION

KANAT produces Glass Flake reinforced epoxy coatings providing long lasting protection of steel against corrosion.

Glass flake coating systems work on the principle of presenting a tortuous

path to corrosive ions migrating through the permeable binder.

Glass flake reinforced epoxy coatings have;

Good resistance to undercutting corrosion

High abrasion resistance

Good resistance to cathodic disbondment

Suitability of non-metallic products for use in contact with water intended

for human consumption with regards to their effect on the quality of the water

(BS 6920), consists of five separate tests;

COST OF PAINT SYSTEM

PAINT APPLICATION FIELD TESTS

paint cost 20-40%

surface preparation cost 30-60%

application cost 10-25%

general expenses 5-10%

Main elements of the total cost in a typical painting job are;

Indirect or job related cost items should also be considered when estimating the painting cost. For this reason, cost comparison

should be estimated by unit cost based on annual basis. Paint cost should be evaluated on formula.Total Costm² x Years

8

Product cost is an important element for selecting paint system. It is not only enough to

consider unit price or spreading rate, but also these do not show the total cost. The real total

cost is the sum of the costs paid during whole life cycle of paint system.

Paint failures are generally originated from application. As a solution, independent organizations

such as NACE, SSPC, FROSIO developed training programs for paint applicators and inspectors

and determined the necessary field tests.

Most of the methods and instruments employed in field tests are regulated by international

standards.

KANAT provides technical services by NACE certified inspectors during field applications;

to plan the whole work at the beginning

to assure the quality of the paint application

to measure the parameters and recording the results periodically

Proper surface preparation will prolong the lifetime of paint system. The life of a coating is directly proportional to quality of surface

preparation as well as on the selected coating system.

Most of the early failures are attributed to inadequate surface preparation.

Inspection for surface cleanliness is very important and should be performed in all stages of painting process i.e.:

Before any surface preparation activities,

After surface preparation, before painting,

Between each application of coating in a multicoat system.

Surface preperation according to standards

increases life of coating while reducing the LCC*

* Life Cycle Cost

Main factors considered in surface preparation process

Grease, oil and dust Prevent tight bonding of coatings.

Soluble salts Accelerate the corrosion reaction and underfilm corrosion.

Rust Rust resulting from the corrosion of steel is not a good base for applying coatings because it expands and becomes porous.

Mill scale As a general rule, unless completely removed before painting, it will later cause the coatings to crack and expose the underlying steel.

Moisture Moisture may either produce flash rusting before painting or accelerate under film corrosion after painting.

Old coatings May have poor adhesion.

May be too deteriorated for recoating.

May be incompatible.

Roughness High - paint will not penetrate into the roughness of metal.

Low - adhesion loss.

EXTERIOR PROTECTION OF STORAGE TANKS

ISO 12944

Selection of proper paint system is essential for effective corrosion protection of steel structures. It is necessary for owners, inspectors

and manufacturers of coating materials to have information about corrosion protection. ISO 12944 gives adequate information to

select appropriate protective paint systems. ISO 12944 is used as a global reliable guide for the selection of different types of

protective paint systems. There are eight different sections covering issues such as the measurement of the corrosivity of various

environments, surface preparation and laboratory testing procedures.The expected durability is a period during which protective

paint system protects its quality until the maintenance painting.

ISO 12944-5 indicates three ranges of durability as low, medium and high:

Low (L) : 2-5 years

Medium (M) : 5-15 years

High (H) : more than 15 years

KANAT has third party approvals for the performance of different paint systems based on ISO 12944.
