Intended Use:
AQUACHEM - N Surface Enamel Paint is designed to protect surfaces made of cast iron, steel, non-ferrous metals, wood, and wood-like materials used in underground mining operations. This product is safe for direct painting work. The obtained paint coatings are non-flammable and can be used both indoors and outdoors. Metal surfaces to be painted should be primed with the water-dilutable, anti-corrosion AQUACHEM - P Primer Paint. For wooden and wood-like surfaces used outdoors, it is recommended to use clear DEKORCHEM as a primer. When painting wooden surfaces used indoors, a primer is not required.
Characteristics:
A suspension of pigments and fillers in a water-based polymer dispersion with the addition of coalescents and auxiliary agents. AQUACHEM - N creates coatings that dry at room temperature. The paint is available in a full range of colors, including those matching the RAL color chart.
Product Properties:
The paint is environmentally friendly and completely safe for users and the natural environment. It is water-dilutable and has a mild odor. AQUACHEM - N creates very adhesive, protective-decorative coatings with excellent coverage. The coating is characterized by good mechanical resistance. It exhibits high elasticity, spreadability, and impact resistance. It is especially recommended for painting spaces in hospitals, nurseries, kindergartens, schools, and in areas with a high risk of fire or explosion, where the use of solvent-based paints is not possible. The paint can be used in spaces with limited ventilation. It is strictly prohibited to dilute the paint with organic solvents. The use of organic solvents will alter the physical properties of the product, making it flammable and unsuitable for painting in underground mining operations.
