Several coating systems and designs were chosen to protect a concrete chamber with side walls coated with a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) material. When polyurea was identified as the coating to be used at this engineering pilot plant, which contains harsh caustic chemicals in conjunction with PVDF coated panel walls; an extensive research was conducted to determine which method will be utilized to create a seamless protective film between these two systems.
Several coating systems and designs were chosen to protect a concrete chamber with side walls coated with a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) material. When polyurea was identified as the coating to be used at this engineering pilot plant, which contains harsh caustic chemicals in conjunction with PVDF coated panel walls; an extensive research was conducted to determine which method will be utilized to create a seamless protective film between these two systems. In this area, there is a gap which exists between the floor and the vertical wall which varies between 1” and ¼”. To bridge the gap between the two surfaces, it was decided by the Engineer that galvanized flashing plates will be the metal of choice as most coatings are unable to have great adhesion to PVDF. This metal is easy to work with, readily available and from a cost perspective it will save the project over ninety percent of material costs compared to standard carbon steel plates. The selected coating system needs to be chemically resistant to all caustic chemicals in the plant as well as have an adhesion value greater than 400 psi.
The use of polyurea-based thick film coating materials for substrate protection and corrosion prevention has taken an exponential rise in the marketplace in the past 10 years or so. When properly installed, polyurea coatings offer a variety of performance characteristics.

Two component spray polyurea systems are fast reacting and provide quick return-to-service coatings. Aromatic polyurea coatings have good physical properties but discolor upon exposure to UV light due to the aromatic content. Some of these aromatic systems have been coated with an aliphatic topcoat to provide the desired color stability.
A method of using spray polyurea coatings and woven aramid, fiber wet-out with a proprietary material to form a composite. The composite is built in place and used to retrofit structures and vehicles to resist the effects of explosive blasts.
