Series 1402
ProPolymer
Generic Type
Elevated Temperature Vinyl Ester
Common Usage
Series 1402 is a food grade, vinyl ester primer for complete FDA-compliant lining systems in concrete, steel or stainless-steel tanks. Fast-cure characteristics allow for quick application of subsequent coats, limiting downtime and facility disruption. Series 1402 is the only approved primer for the ProPolymer food grade product line. Replaces ProPolymer 4808.

Curing Time
| Temperature | To Recoat | Immersion | Maximum Recoat |
|---|---|---|---|
| 90°F (32°C) | 3 hours | 24 hours | 3 days |
| 75°F (24°C) | 4 hours | 48 hours | 5 days |
| 60°F (16°C) | 12 hours | 4 days | 7 days |
Recoat times are typical for coating to be dry-to-touch and ready for the next application. Immersion and certain other services may require longer cure times and/or elevated temperature post cure for optimal performance. Direct food contact service requires post cure see Application Guide. Coating that has exceeded its maximum recoat time should be checked for styrene or acetone sensitivity or uniformly scarified to assure secondary bonding. Consult Tnemec Technical Services and Technical Bulletin 22-119 R1.
