| New Quartz-Coat 845-Blue high temperature coating for halogens  Quartz-Coat 845-Blue, a new high temperature, opaque, blue-top coating developed by Aremco Products, Inc., is now used to reduce glare in halogen lamps used in the automotive, dental, aircraft, stadium, and fire safety industries, for applications to 1500 oF (816 °C). Quartz-Coat 845-Blue is a new, high temperature, cobalt-aluminate pigmented formulation that bonds exceptionally well to glass and quartz halogen lamps for applications to 1500 oF (816 °C). This formulation is a single part, water-based, odorless, inorganic system that is blue in appearance and enables the coating to absorb and evenly diffuse light at high temperatures.Quartz-Coat 845-Blue is formulated to a viscosity range of 400-700 cP (centipoises) and solids content by volume of 61.0%. It is applied easily by dipping or using conventional pneumatic spray equipment, and the typical dry film thickness is less than 1.0 mils (0.001"). Curing can be accomplished rapidly in high-speed production systems by ramping the coating to 900-1000 oF for 5 minutes. After curing, the finish is tough and moisture resistant, and no outgassing will occur, even at high temperatures. Quartz-Coat 845-Blue is available in pint, quart and gallon containers. write your comments about the article :: © 2009 Construction News :: home page |
