Thermasets primer series exceeds
customer expectations in the dual
coating system sector
Thermaprime is a series of
primers, manufactured by
Thermaset, they have been
specifi cally designed to
provide coating solutions
for a variety of applications.
These primers when used as
a dual coat with a suitable
topcoat application can
offer many benefi ts.
Thermaset have designed this range to provide
longer life expectancy for coatings by offering
the benefits of chemical resistance, anti-
corrosion properties, edge cover performance
and outgassing solutions, all of which can
affect the life expectancy of a paint finish.
Here at Thermaset we understand that our
customers have requirements for technical
solutions in their application process and
have also acknowledged the growing
demand for enhanced corrosion protection.
When using the Thermaprime series in a dual
system with one of our topcoats which can be
supplied from our extensive stock range, we
believe that this series will offer a solution.
The Primers in this series include PBP 110
Epoxy Barrier Primer, PPC 120 Anticorrosive
Primer, PZP 130 Zinc Primer and AGP 135
Antigassing Primer. Each has their own
unique set of properties to enhance the
longevity of pre-treated metal components.
Thermasets Thermaprime series will
offer enhanced field life on heavy goods
machinery, agricultural machinery or any
ferrous or non-ferrous components that are
subjected to external environments.
The benefits will be apparent in increased life
expectancy, reduced process time/costs to
alternative coating processes, a reduction in
requirement for remedial work and of course
will add aesthetic value to any premium
component.
For more detail on each of the primers, we
have broken down each one to easily see the
56
benefits, this will help decide which
product best suits the application being
considered.
The Epoxy Barrier Primer (TLE-C540-M)
has been designed to offer a smooth
level base that will hide minor
imperfection in substrates. It presents
itself well with excellent adhesion
properties for topcoat giving overall
smooth aesthetic appearance.
Edge cover is a key property to this
application as its ideal to protect
against corrosion on sharp edges
that have been for example laser cut.
Thermasets Anticorrosion Primer
(TLM-G087-S) is a primer coating that
has been designed to offer enhanced
anti-corrosive properties and will offer
extra life expectancy to a coating
system. This primer also has good edge
cover characteristics and offers up a
good level preparation for topcoat
application.
The Zinc Primer
(TLE-6226-M) is a
leading first-class
primer offering
exceptional
anti-corrosive
protection for ferrous
metals in the most
severe conditions.
This product applied
with a topcoat
returns superior salt
spray test results.
Finally, the
Antigassing Primer
(TLM-G080-S).
This has been
designed to offer
excellent antigassing
properties. Aesthetics of fabrications that are
galvanised or metal castings that are prone
to outgassing will be much improved through
the addition of this primer coat.
Having seen so much success with the
release of this range, Thermaset will be
continuing to develop new products adding
further additions to this range, that will
JANUARY 2020
further benefit our customers.
Thermaset ltd continue to focus on listening
to our customers, also acknowledging what
the demands of the UK market are, we will
therefore continue to develop products that
provide coating solutions with the focus on
added value.
