Thermo-Shield® Tank Shield

Thermo-Shield® Tank Shield is a one compound highly efficient, energy-saving, flexible coating filled with special ceramic microspheres. Each micro-sphere acts as a sealed cell and the entire coating acts as a thermally efficient blanket covering the entire vessel. This coating is non-toxic and with VOC levels of less than 1g/L. It is washable, resists many harsh chemicals. It greatly reduces thermal shock and heat penetration by keeping surfaces much cooler in hot summer weather; It also offers UV protection. Thermo-Shield® Tank Shield displays excellent dirt pick-up resistance and retains its flexibility after aging. Thermo-Shield® Tank Shield has superb fire resistance - it is grade Class A by UL Standards. It can be obtained in a variety of architectural colors for signs and logo making. It leaves a beautiful satin finish.

Uses
For the exterior of steel petrol storage tanks and pipelines where reduction of surface temperature is desired. Exterior of steel or polymer water tanks or grain storage silos. Exterior of most chemical storage tanks - this coating is resistant to 26 different harsh chemicals including 20 hydrochloric and 25% sulfuric acids. Primarily used as an exterior coating to reduce surface temperature and loss of inventory. It is also used as a pipe coating for the same purpose.

Insulation
Reflectance 89% - Emittance 94% - Conductance 0.05W/mK- Endothermic Effect (evaporative cooling property)-Light Scattering(optical cooling property).
