The key to understanding when to specify polyurethane vs polyurea two-component 100% solids systems is determined by the features and limitations of the two technologies. …Read More

The rapid-curing protective membranes based on polyurea, polyurethane or a blend (Hybrid) exhibit excellent adhesion to steel and concrete. Understanding the parameters for testing adhesion and the time restraints required for full adhesion is essential. …Read More

Protective coatings are a simple yet effective way to prevent the corrosion of steel from proceeding by removing oxygen from the steel surface and preventing the oxidation of the steel. If steel isn’t protected, the abrasive materials in the cargo will cause wear, resulting in metal loss that can cause structural damage to significant steel assets. The common solution is to apply an abrasive-resistant polyurea at high dry film thickness, which protects the steel from corrosion and wear in high abrasive processes. …Read More

Protective coatings are a simple yet effective way to prevent the corrosion of steel from proceeding by removing oxygen from the steel surface and preventing the oxidation of steel. If steel isn’t protected, the abrasive materials in the cargo will cause wear, resulting in metal loss that can cause structural damage to steel mining assets. Mining equipment requires abrasion-resistant protective coatings; the common solution is to apply an abrasive-resistant polyurea at a high dry film thickness in one application, which protects the steel from corrosion and wear in high abrasive processes….Read More

The asset owner approached the LiquiMix team seeking a secondary containment system for sealing several large bunds containing 50% Caustic Soda solution stored in mild steel tanks. The substrate in the bunds was Roadbase, applied in accordance with the relevant Australian Standards….Read More

The LiquiMix team was approached by a client seeking a protective coating system for their steel trailers that needed to facilitate the early release of bulk dry and slurry loads. The coating system had to seamlessly line the textures of the substrate and give an extremely durable, slippery finish to allow for the movement of the cargo from the trailer to its destination….Read More

The owner of a seafood processing factory needed the failed epoxy floor coating to be replaced in order to satisfy AQIS (Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service) requirements. …Read More

The Asset required a protective & waterproof coating system applied to the exterior foundation of the newly constructed concrete building….Read More

The apartment project involved the construction of a high-rise building with a basement on a newly constructed concrete split slab. The basement was to be used as a car park and storage, making waterproofing a priority to protect against water ingress from the surrounding ground. …Read More
