Thermal coating systems
Aerogel-Containing Coatings, Specified as a System
Primer, aerogel intermediate coat and topcoat are coordinated for the substrate and exposure.
Start with the surface and application method
Adhesion, curing and final performance depend on preparation, compatible layers and controlled site application.
- Surface preparation standard
- Ambient and substrate conditions
- Spray, roller or trowel application
- Inspection and repair procedure
The complete coating build
Each layer has a distinct job. Compatibility must be reviewed across the full system.
Primer
Supports adhesion and corrosion protection for the prepared substrate and service environment.
Aerogel intermediate coat
Provides the thermal layer at the specified build, number of passes and curing conditions.
Topcoat
Provides the required finish, UV, weather, chemical and maintenance resistance.
Control points for quotation
The same coating can behave differently when substrate, climate or application changes.
Design basis
Operating temperature, ambient conditions, target surface temperature or heat-loss objective.
Application plan
Area, geometry, access, method, wet-film control, recoat window and curing schedule.
Acceptance
Adhesion, thickness, appearance, holiday checks, records and any buyer-defined testing.
Keep claims attached to the tested system
A product name does not prove performance for every substrate, thickness or environment.
Build the coating enquiry around the substrate
Send the surface, temperature, area, target build, environment and application method.
