COSCO Kansai launched fluorocarbon coating for wind power tower
Abstract: COSCO Kansai coating launched the first fluorocarbon system coating for wind power tower, which greatly improves the performance of the existing polyurethane coating, can greatly improve the service life of the tower, and provide ultra long protection for up to 20 years
(December 1st, 2010, Shanghai, China) - COSCO Kansai coating Chemical Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "COSCO Kansai"), as a leading enterprise in industrial anti-corrosion coating, launched the first fluorocarbon coating for wind power tower, which can effectively improve the reliability of wind power tower, extend the service life, and provide ultra long protection for up to 20 years
the current wind power coatings are polyurethane coatings that follow European and American standards, mainly because at the beginning of the development of the wind power industry, the development of ultra long weather resistant finish in Europe is not mature, so the polyurethane coating with the most mature technology and relatively good weather resistance is selected as the protection. However, the general polyurethane coating is limited by its service life. In order to ensure that the fan has a service life of 20 years, it must be repainted and maintained for many times during this period, which greatly increases the equipment maintenance cost and potential safety hazards. However, the on-site recoating of wind power equipment is extremely difficult, and the cost of loading, unloading, transportation and shutdown maintenance is high, which is much higher than the cost of the coating itself for the first time. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-performance long-term protective coating to adapt to it, and the whole life design of the anti-corrosion coating of fan equipment mostly takes the national standard as the production target, which has become a crucial factor
fluorocarbon coating is known as the "king of coatings" because of its super weather resistance and stain resistance. It is the coating with the lowest loss of outdoor annual aging paint film. Theoretically, the film thickness of 20 microns can meet the anti-corrosion requirements of 40 years. The fluorocarbon coating successfully developed by COSCO Kansai for wind power tower this time has an annual loss of less than 1/4 of that of similar polyurethane products. Within the normal service life of the fan, there is no need for maintenance or only one maintenance, which can ensure a 20-year anti-corrosion life, and greatly reduce the overall cost of coating by reducing the number of maintenance. Because its design film thickness is lower than that of traditional polyurethane coating, it can also reduce the emission of VOC gas in the coating process, thereby saving social resources and energy, and reducing environmental pollution to a greater extent
this product is composed of tetrafluoro resin, aliphatic polyisocyanate and high weather resistant pigments. It has super weather resistance, powdering resistance, strong light and color retention, tough paint film and excellent mechanical wear resistance. Its mechanism is to form a reliable coating protective layer with fluorocarbon topcoat and other supporting coatings, make full use of the super weatherability, corrosion resistance and excellent physical and mechanical properties of fluorocarbon coating, provide shielding effect on the substrate, and extend the effective service life of the coating protective layer
at present, the ultra-high performance of fluorocarbon coatings has been fully recognized by the industrial anti-corrosion market. If the wind power anti-corrosion market is introduced in the future, it can greatly improve the weather resistance, anti-corrosion and other properties of wind power equipment, extend the protection period of equipment, and reduce maintenance costs. Compared with the polyurethane system coating currently used in wind power facilities, fluorocarbon system coating will become an upgraded product, which will play a very positive role in promoting the upgrading of wind power coatings in China
