Superior Chemical Resistance and High Temperature Resistance

About ChemLINE^® WS Wine & Spirits

ChemLINE^® WS is a high functionality, two component thermoset polymer coating formulated with ethanol as the reduction solvent. ChemLINE^® WS assures that no hydrocarbon contamination can occur in alcohol cargoes from the lining. ChemLINE^® WS is formulated with a unique polymer, that when polymerized, cross-links up to 784 times per molecule. This results in a virtually impermeable, highly chemical resistant coating.

ChemLine® WS's higher cross-link density and alcohol solvent formulation means:

• Outstanding chemical resistance to alcohols, acids, caustics and solvents.
• High heat resistance
• High abrasion resistance
• No risk of hydrocarbon contamination of cargoes
• Suitable for food cargoes

Provides Superior Chemical Resistance to:

• 193 Proof Alcohol
• Ethanol
• Methanol
• 98% Sulfuric Acid
• 37% Hydrochloric Acid
• 50% Sodium Hydroxide
• Methylene Chloride
• Acetic Acid
• Most acids, alkalis and solvents

Typical Properties

A History of Performance

For more than a decade ChemLINE^® coatings have withstood the tremendous stresses and extremes of chemical attack and abrasive wear. ChemLINE^® has been proven worldwide under the most arduous operating conditions, from resisting the most aggressive chemicals to handling hot pipelines in sub-freezing temperatures, with a history of success. Based on this experience, the development of ChemLINE^® represents a quantum leap in chemical resistant polymer coatings.
