MAINCOTE HG-54D

Product Details

MAINCOTE HG-54D acrylic resin has established the performance standard for acrylic waterborne maintenance paint vehicles. It can be formulated into primers and gloss topcoats which are designed for commercial, institutional, and industrial maintenance markets. The full gloss capability, corrosion resistance, flow, hardness, and chemical resistance characteristics imparted by MAINCOTE HG-54D resin in a waterborne finish are typical of those associated with conventional solvent-based maintenance systems. Primer formulations exhibit stability with commonly used corrosion-inhibiting pigments.

A properly formulated coating based on MAINCOTE HG-54D resin:

• Decreases maintenance expenses and replacement costs
• Reduces the need to paint as frequently
• Provides protection to the paint user's valuable investment
• Exhibits excellent resistance to gloss loss, corrosion, fading, chalking, chemicals, and solvents

Typical Applications

Corrosion resistance of a typical medium-duty industrial maintenance system based on MAINCOTE HG-54D resin is shown in Table 1 for two coats of primer, two coats of a gloss topcoat, and a two-coat primer, topcoat system. MAINCOTE HG-54D resin provides good chemical resistance properties as illustrated by the protection imparted by clear and pigmented finishes to metal substrates when subjected to acid exposure.
