General Product Information
Product Information
Product description: Powercrete R-150 is a high-build solvent free
novolac epoxy coating designed for protecting new line pipes and
pipeline rehabilitation projects that operates at high temperatures up to
150C (302F). Powercrete R-150 can be used for extra protection on
top of FBE mainline coatings or as a DTM (drirect to metal) coating
when high operating temperature-and chemical resistance is required.
Features:
100% Solids Novolac Epoxy
no VOC
high temperature and chemical resistance
DIN EN 10289 compliant Steel Tubes and Fittings for Onshore and
Offshore Pipelines
Excellent adhesion to FBE and abrasive blasted steel
Excellent cathodic disbondment characteristics
Excellent wastewater and sulphuric acid resistance
Can be used in directional drill and thrust bore applications.
Suitable for pipeline operating temperatures to 150C (302F)
Can be sprayed and hand applied up to 1000micron (40mils) in one
multi-pass layer
Application examples
Application: coating system for pipe bends, fittings, valves, girth
welds/field joints, directional drilling, buried tanks and vessels, Offshore
risers, piles, waste water pipes and other steel structures in need of a
high performance protection at operating temperatures up to 150C
(302F).

The area to be coated has to be clean, dry and
free from oil, grease and dust. All contamination
that could interfere with the adhesion of the
coating has to be removed according to SSPCSP1.
Prior and during the surface preparation, the
temperature of the substrate(s) must be at least
5F (3C) above the dew point.

Application of the described coating system
should be carried out and inspected by certified
personnel.
The finished coating must be visually inspected
for any defects, such as runs and sags,
fisheyes, blistering, pinholes, missed spots and
possible contaminants. Pinhole/Holiday
detection must generated according to NACE
SP0188.
The coating thickness (DFT) must be within the
specified DFT range. Use calibrated equipment
and measure according to SSPC-PA 2 or other
specified standard.
Pinholes/Holidays must be located and repaired
with approved material. Consult Powercrete for
specific information. Retest the repaired area.
Cleaning
Cleanup
Use Acetone or MEK.
Handling
General
Transport and stacking is possible after full cure
of the coating and generating a Holiday test
(NACE SP0188). This time can be reduced by
increasing the curing temperature. Consult
Powercrete for specific information.
