MAINCOTE™ EC-11 Emulsion

What is MAINCOTE™ EC-11 Emulsion?

An elastomeric, self-crosslinking all-acrylic resin for use in surface-tolerant, thick film coatings on steel and concrete surfaces. Coatings based on MAINCOTE™ EC-11 can be applied at 10 to 20 mils dry film thickness per coat, and can offer excellent dirt pickup resistance properties.

Uses

Industrial Maintenance Coatings for steel and concrete
Commercial Architectural Finishes for metal
Transportation Infrastructure (e.g., concrete highway dividers, sound barriers, bridges)
Metal Roofing (i.e., refurbishment of metal roofs)

Benefits

Surface tolerant, allowing the coating of marginally-prepared rusty steel
Excellent corrosion and water resistance
Elastomeric coating can bridge small, expanding and contracting cracks in concrete
Excellent adhesion to concrete, clean and rusty steel, and galvanized steel
Flexibility and impact resistance, even at low temperatures
High film build in a single coat (e.g., 10 – 20 mil dry)
Low coalescent demand permits formulation at very low VOC levels (< 50g/L)
Self-crosslinking mechanism provides dirt pick-up resistance
APEO-free (made without the use of APEO surfactants)
