Protective Coatings for High-Performance Applications (Polyurea-based Coatings)

High-performance coatings are applied to surfaces that are vulnerable to corrosion or chemical abrasion. Through the application of a protective lining, you can minimize the damage done and significantly extend the service life of a structure. Generally, protective coatings are separated into two major markets:
  • Industrial maintenance or protective coatings applied to structures in the oil and gas, petrochemical, paper mills, and power generation industries. Including also the bridges and water and waste treatment plants. Most of these coatings are applied to structures that are “on shore,” but some are applied to offshore oil and gas rigs.
  • Marine coatings applied to commercial ships, including freight carriers, tows, cruise ships and others.

Polyurea based coating is one of the most reliable high-performance coatings available in the market, used both as protection coating and as waterproofing solution.  

Polyurea based coating technology is used for corrosion protection and abrasion resistance in a wide array of fields. This includes automotive, construction, industrial and housing applications.
Polyurea based coating is a more advanced technology that offers significant technical advantages to owners and contractors, as compared to traditional coating systems. In the construction sector, polyurea based coatings are used to coat concrete to seal the surfaces, for bridge deck and structure coatings. These coatings also have exceptional properties such as fast setting, even at low temperatures. This property facilitates the sealing of surfaces of large industrial buildings quickly and efficiently.

Moreover, corrotech coatings are water resistant, chemical resistant and possess mechanical properties, such as high hardness, flexibility, tear strength, tensile strength, and durability. They can be applied over a variety of materials, such as concrete, metals and wood in harsh temperature and humidity conditions. These properties have made polyurea based coatings a smart choice among end users for the protection of their infrastructure.

Initial costs are higher than conventional coatings due to advanced formulations. However, service life can be as much as double that of some conventional coatings, and the coating itself has superior features in comparing with other coatings.
