One of our most sought-after solutions is polyurea coatings.
What are Polyurea Coatings?
Polyurea coatings are a subset of the chemistry of urethane coatings for which polyurethane is another subset. It is formed by blending a resin with an isocyanate component. This type of coating is well-regarded for its amazing corrosion protection, structural enhancement, waterproofing, and abrasion resistance. It is now one of the most preferred surface-protective solutions especially for its exceptional resistance against chemical, atmospheric, and even environmental factors. It is this wide range of physical and chemical attributes that give polyurea coatings their flexibility across many applications.
Polyurea coatings are now used in many industries, commercial establishments, and even residences as a form of highly protective and weatherproof roof coatings and in flat roof repair. These are also applied in pipe protection as well as the repair of inner pipes. Tanks coated with polyurea are deemed virtually indestructible while the liners for trucks, bulk transport wagons, and freight ships are given extraordinary strength to withstand extreme loads. Polyurea coatings are also used in secondary containment systems, bridges, car park decks, and even conveyor belts. Offshore oil rigs and other offshore platforms also use polyurea coatings because of the solution’s many amazing properties.
What are the Advantages of Applying Polyurea Coatings?
One of the most unique advantages of using polyurea coatings compared to other types of protective coatings like vinyl esters, fiberglass, paint, and epoxy is that it has a fast-setting characteristic, allowing you to have very minimal downtime in your daily activities. Unlike other materials that will require several days up to a few weeks of curing before you can regain full use of your surfaces, polyurea coatings set relatively fast. What this means is that it will never substantially affect your daily operations if you are in the industrial sector.
For example, if parking garages, wastewater clarifiers, chemical storage tanks, and water tanks were applied with other types of protective coatings, the will have to be shut down to empty the containers, apply the protective coating, and allow it to dry completely before filling them up again. The length of time applying these coatings alone can already amount to several days. The curing of these coatings will take even much longer. Throughout the period of providing adequate protection for these systems, they are not performing the function they are intended to do. And this can easily translate to millions of dollars in losses. If you can significantly improve the curing time by half, then you can also reduce the economic impact of such an undertaking.
Polyurea coatings can also be applied on almost any other surface, be it metal, steel, wood, concrete, or any other substrate. It can also be applied even in low-temperature and high-humidity environments, something that you cannot do if you want to apply paint. The versatility of polyurea applications gives it exceptional uses in both residential and non-residential applications.
