PHENOCHEM
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE CEMENT MORTAR
DESCRIPTION AND USES
Phenochem
is Phenol resin based corrosion proof cement. Phenochem
exhibits excellent resistance to sulphuric acid in
concentration as high as 92% and is principally used
with Acid proof brick to construct corrosion proof
masonry
sheathing to protect reaction vessels, storage tanks,
pickling tanks, and processing tanks. It is also used in
the installation of corrosion proof floors.
One of the outstanding features of Phenochem is its excellent
working properties. It can be easily applied using brick
layers techniques and not sticky nor difficult to handle.
Phenochem is also available for special applications in
such as cases where an electrical insulating cement is
required.
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE:
Phenochem
when completely set is resistance to all non-oxidizing acids
dilute oxidizing acids and agents, salt and most organics
solvents; at temperature upto 120 degree C. As mentioned
above it is especially well suit for service with sulphuric
acid and phosphoric acid at any concentration.
Phenochem
is not recommended for use with alkalis, hot alkaline salts
or high concentration of oxidising acids or agents. For use
with alkalies modified Phenochem is recommended.
PREPARATION OF PHENOCHEM CEMENT:
Phenochem
cement is prepared by combining Phenochem resin and Phenochem
powder to form a workable mix. The mixing ratio is1 part resin
to 3 parts of powder by weight. The ratio will very slightly
depending on temperature and working conditions , the
mechanic preference and ingredients of fillers selected.
When carbon filler is used for preparation the cement mortar
1part of phenochem liquid is mixed with 2parts by weight of
phenochem powder.
APPLICATION OF PHENOCHEM CEMENT
Phenochem
cement is buttered on Acid proof brick using the usual
brick layer’s
method, where bedding and pointing cement is one. In case
of bedding and pointing cements are different Phenochem
is better for pointing to the joints of bricks.
During and after completion of the installation the area must
be dry and free from foreign matter such as construction dust,
Portland cement, plaster and other contaminates which
would interfere with the setting of the cement.
STORAGE LIFE:
Store Phenochem liquid resin at low temperature in the
original unopened containers until ready for use. Under this
condition liquid resin has storage life of 3 to 4
months. Store Phenochem powder in a cool, dry place, in the
original un- opened containers, the powder has storage life
of 1years.
