Metal tanks and valves protection with Epoxy/Polyester resins & Glass Fiber
Shielding metal tanks and valves from corrosion while bolstering their longevity is accomplished through the utilization of epoxy or polyester resins along with glass fibre. The safeguarding process commences with the application of an epoxy or polyester resin layer onto the metal surface, acting as a shield. The resin is then fortified by incorporating glass fibres, which bestow added mechanical strength and elevate the structure’s performance.
Epoxy and polyester resins demonstrate exceptional resistance against corrosion, harsh chemicals, and UV radiation, thus providing superb protection. Moreover, they enhance shock and impact resistance, averting the likelihood of metal tanks and valves breaking or developing fractures.
Glass fibres, renowned for their fibrous composition and superior mechanical attributes, fortify and reinforce the entire system, resulting in heightened sturdiness and longevity. The fusion of resins and glass fibre facilitates enduring safeguarding measures, curbing the necessity for frequent repairs and replacements.
Furthermore, epoxy or polyester resin-based systems combined with glass fibre exhibit adaptability and can be customized to accommodate diverse shapes and sizes. These versatile systems find extensive applications across various industries such as chemical, petrochemical, food processing and water and wastewater treatment sectors.
