Wastewater Assets

MCU-Coatings contain micaceous zinc and iron oxide fillers that create an impermeable barrier to produce layers of overlapping and interleafing particles that obstruct the permeation of moisture and other contaminants through the coating.

MCU-Coatings remain flexible, adhere tenaciously to concrete and steel, do not crack and are not prone to blistering. They have good chemical resistance and have been applied extensively in wastewater facilities for many years, and have an enviable record in and around water because they do not lose their adhesion.  MCU-Coating’s mastic has also been approved for potable water usage.

Our standard specification in and around water is 170 STET! DFT MCU-Miozinc primer and 120µm DFT MCU-Miotopcoat:

Other coating features:

• Single-component system that can be brushed, rolled or sprayed
• It is not weather restricted:
  • can be applied between 6% – 99% relative humidity
  • can be applied at -15°C and even onto 70°C steel surfaces
  • no dew point restrictions; and
  • are not troubled by rain events 15 minutes after application
• Is surface tolerant
• Can be over-coated in 45 minutes, which is great for maintenance work
• Is flexible and does not embrittle over time
• Bonds tenaciously to good ‘old’ coatings
