Containment
Rhino epoxy containment solutions are formulated for reducing primary containment maintenance costs and maximize equipment return on investment. As a sacrificial layer, Rhino epoxy coatings and linings provide superior protection from harsh chemicals and biological environments.
Product formulations are the ideal protective solution to protect against spills, leaks, or leaking hazardous material seeping into the surrounding environment.
Rhino Epoxy 9700 for Containment
Rhino 9700 - A Novolac Epoxy Coating & Lining that is a high is a high quality Bis-F epoxy with superior chemical and abrasion resistance versus Bis-A type epoxy resins. This tightly crosslinked epoxy system cures in the presence of moisture and humidity with excellent mechanical properties. Rhino 9700 mixes using the industry standard, 2:1 by volume ratio. Having low odor, Rhino 9700 contains no solvents and is 100% solids that assures ease of application. Rhino 9700 Novolac viscosity is well suited for vertical applications.
Typical 9700 Applications
| • Recommended for vertical applications where increased resistance to acids, bases and solvents is desired |
| • Great coating in areas were high concentrations of chemicals are used |
| • Primary and secondary containment |
| • Chemical tanks and disposal pits or tunnels |
