Ceram-Kote coatings are specialized ceramic polymer coatings designed to offer superior protection against abrasion, corrosion, and chemical exposure. These coatings are particularly effective in harsh environments such as oilfields, industrial facilities, and marine settings12.
Here are some key features and applications:
- Abrasion and Corrosion Resistance: Ceram-Kote coatings are engineered to withstand extreme abrasion and corrosion, making them ideal for protecting equipment and structures in demanding conditions.
- Chemical Resistance: These coatings provide excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including hydrocarbons and corrosive gases.
- Versatility: They can be applied to various substrates, including metals, fiberglass reinforced plastics, composites, and even rusty steel surfaces.
- Ease of Application: Ceram-Kote coatings are typically spray-applied and air-cured, allowing for quick and efficient application.
- Specialized Formulations: Different formulations are available for specific needs, such as CeRam-Kote 54 for general use, CeRam-Kote 2000 for internal pipe and tank coatings, and CeRam-Kote 426 for water immersion service.
Ceram-Kote coatings are used in a variety of applications, particularly in environments that require high resistance to abrasion, corrosion, and chemical exposure. Here are some typical applications:
- Oil and Gas Industry: Used for coating internal and external surfaces of pipes, tanks, and other equipment to protect against harsh chemicals and abrasive materials
- Marine Industry: Applied to ship hulls, offshore platforms, and other marine structures to prevent corrosion from saltwater and marine organisms
- Industrial Facilities: Used on machinery, storage tanks, and structural components to extend their lifespan and reduce maintenance costs
- Aerospace: Utilized in aircraft components to protect against erosion and abrasion
- Water Treatment Plants: Coatings are applied to pipes, tanks, and other equipment to prevent corrosion from chemicals and water exposure
