Acid resistant paint coatings are available in a wide range of formulations, suited to different applications. The most common types are epoxy, phenolic, rubber and bitumen. According to the specific environment and condition, the specific alkali & acid resistant paint is chosen to use. Epoxy-based acid & alkali resistant paint is used for internal facilities or concrete surfaces, and for industrial pipeline coating and floors. And for marine application or buried pipeline, bitumen acid and alkali resistant paint are mostly used. Phenolic paint is suited for acid gas and vapor. Rubber modified acid & alkali resistant paint is for acid or alkali water or moisture environment.

Construction Requirements for Acid Alkali Resistant Paint

This acid & alkali resistant coating is flammable and contains volatile and flammable solvents, so it must be kept away from sparks and open flames. It is strictly forbidden to smoke in the workplace, and effective measures should be taken to prevent the generation of sparks (such as using explosion-proof electrical equipment to keep antistatic, avoid metal impact, etc.).

The construction site should be kept well ventilated as far as possible. In order to eliminate the hidden danger of explosion during use, sufficient ventilation should be ensured to maintain the gas/air ratio not exceeding 10% of the lowest explosion limit. Generally, 200 cubic meters of ventilation per kilogram of solvent are required to maintain the lowest explosion limit of 10% working environment.

Take effective measures to prevent direct contact between the skin and eyes and the alkali anti acid coating (such as using work clothes, gloves, goggles, face shields, and applying protective oil, etc.). If the skin comes into contact with the alkali & acid resistant paint accidentally, please wash thoroughly with water and soap or a suitable industrial cleaner; if your eyes are contaminated, please rinse immediately with water for at least 10 minutes, and seek medical attention immediately.

During construction, it is recommended to wear a face mask to prevent inhalation of alkali resistant coating mist and harmful gases, especially in poorly ventilated environments. Finally, please carefully dispose of the used alkali & acid resistant coating buckets to avoid environmental pollution.
