The
Problem
Corrosion is a serious concern in the utilities industry, where outdoor
conditions accelerate the spread of rust. Power plants, distribution lines
and substations are built under harsh weather conditions and
temperatures, to which where metals such as steel and aluminium are
exposed.
The annual cost of corrosion comes to a total of $2.5 trillion*, which means
corrosion in utilities makes up for the larger part of annual industrial
corrosion costs, namely 39.7%.

The
Problem
Epoxy and Alkyds chalk,
fade, crack and peel
Hot-cold temperature
cycling causes blistering of
Epoxy paints
Galvanized layers do not
adequately protect steel
against corrosion in
aggressive environments
5. The
Solution
SILPROCOAT is a silicone polymer-based elastomeric anti-corrosion coating,
designed to restore the metal structures and extend the asset’s life span. It’s a
ready-to-use product that can be sprayed immediately after opening the pail
and will last more than 10 years even in the most challenging environments.
6. The
Solution
Unlike hard coatings, epoxy resins,
silicone rubber is soft and
withstands abrasion due to sand
Silicone coating remains flexible
throughout its life
Resistant to heat, humidity,
chemicals, salt spray and ultra-
violet
Unlike epoxy and urethane resins,
silicone is unaffected by ultraviolet
7. The unique
Characteristics
High UV light resistance
Elasticity
Extreme heat resistance (up to 160°C)
Resistance to Acids, Alkalies & saline
atmosphere
Strong adhesion
Anti-aging
8. The Importance
Saves cost as compared to
conventional protective paints
Reduces the delivery period due to
fast & short painting process.
Saves Manpower & Time
Protects assets from production-
threatening consequences
9. Surfaces it can
be applied to
Power system equipment
Oil and gas storage tanks
Pipelines
Metal barriers
Steel towers
Poles
Bridges
Roofs
Metal clad switchgear
Transformer tanks
All other metal enclosures and
structures
