Hempel launched its new versatile activated zinc primer, Hempadur Avantguard 860. This product combines best in class corrosion protection, at the level of an inorganic zinc silicate, with the application benefits of an epoxy.
Hempadur Avantguard 860 is specifically designed to protect steel structures in moderate to severe corrosive environments. It is the first of its class, specifically developed to overcome the problems experienced with zinc silicate primers application, without compromising corrosion protection and boosting productivity.
In response to general industry concerns over curing times and application properties of zinc silicates, Hempel's new product, with a recoating interval of just one hour, offers at least four times faster drying than coating systems based on zinc silicates. Highly flexible and versatile, this new coating can be applied year-round and at temperatures down to 14˚F/-10°C, and with no restrictions on minimum relative humidity.
