EPICON T-800
Product description:
EPICON T-800 is an anticorrosive paint based on epoxy phenolic resin.
It provides excellent physical properties such as adhesion, toughness, abrasion resistance, etc. as well as chemical
resistance to salt-water, fresh water, petroleum products, crude oil, alkalis and weak acids.
It is suitable as a protective coating for tank interiors.
Airless spray can build a dry film thickness of 75-125 microns per coat.

Safety information: If Health, Safety and Environmental information is required a Health and Safety Data Sheet can be
obtained from Chugoku Paints B.V.
Personal Protection advice and additional information can be obtained from the product Health and Safety Data Sheet
which is available on request. The minimum safety precautions in dealing with this paint are:
a. Observe the precautionary notices displayed on the container.
b. Provide adequate ventilation.
c. Avoid skin contact and inhalation of spray mist.
d. If the product comes into contact with the skin, wash thoroughly with luke warm water and soap or
suitable cleaner. If the eyes are contaminated, irrigate with water and seek medical advice immediately.
e. Since the product contains flammable materials, keep away from sparks and open flames. No smoking
should be permitted in the area.
Definitions: Tolerances: The numerical information quoted in this Technical Data Sheet is subject to
normal manufacturing tolerances.
Spreading Rate: The spreading rate can vary depending on application conditions, the
geometrical complexity of the structure, the weather conditions, etc.
Volume Solids: The volume solids figure given in this Technical Data Sheet is the
percentage of dry film obtained from a given wet film thickness under
specified application rate and conditions measured by the Chugoku
Standard Method corresponding to ASTM method D2697.
Overcoating Intervals: The intervals given assume preparation consistent with good painting
Hard dry: The time taken until the product can be walked on without damaging it. Time
taken until full mechanical strength is obtained is longer.
V.O.C.: Theoretical quantity of volatile organic compounds in g/l.
