Series 1448

Vinester

Generic Type

Novolac Vinyl Ester

Common Usage

A high-build, vinyl ester lining with corrosion resistant graphite fillers. Use where silica free coatings perform best, such as high alkali environments, spent bleach solutions and hydrofluoric and fluosilicic acids, in elevated temperature conditions for both dry, fume and wet services. The graphite also provides good electrical conductivity and is a high wear finish.

Self-priming on steel or Series 1402, 1407. Note: For services above 180°F (82°C), do not use a primer.

Volume Solids

85.0 ± 2.0% (mixed). Series 1448 contains a reactive monomer and some loss will occur during application and cure. Actual solids by volume will vary depending upon temperature and air movement.

Topcoats

Series 1444, 1448

Intermediate

Series 1422, 1428, 1430, 1432, 1438, 1448

Surfacer/Filler/Patcher

Series 215, 217, N218, primer with 211-9111 or fumed silica. Note: Series N218 should be used for filling or patching small areas only. For areas in need of full resurfacing, select one of the other recommended products.

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. ASTM D2583 Barcol Hardness check is also recommended, minimum 20. 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.
