The performance capabilities of <strong>HPC<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Standard \/ HPC<strong><sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong> Intermediate and HPC<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> HT Coating<\/strong> are why so many industries are choosing to switch to reduce energy demands and costs, reduce maintenance costs and reduce the risks of CUI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When we designed the <strong>HPC<\/strong><sup>\u00ae<\/sup> coatings, our goal was to address the concerns of insulation, energy reduction, CUI and personnel protection, without shutting down equipment (and costing millions of dollars in the process). With <strong>HPC<\/strong><sup>\u00ae<\/sup> we&#8217;ve done just that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our aim was to produce measurable insulation performance in the field. <strong>HPC<\/strong><sup>\u00ae<\/sup>  are insulators that cover every centimetre, every surface including elbows and valves etc. to give 100% coverage for optimum insulative benefits. Many coatings insulate under 160\u00b0C, but with the <strong>HPC<sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong> we take insulation from 100\u00b0 to 650\u00b0C, and <strong>can apply while operating, with measurable and immediate results.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HPC<strong><sup>\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong> Coating <\/strong>was designed with lightweight, low-density ceramics developed in cooperation with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/neotechcoatings.com\/coating-products\/super-therm-solar-heat-block-coating\/super-therm-ceramic-coating-developed-with-nasa\/\" title=\"Super Therm\u00ae Ceramic Coating Developed with NASA\">NASA<\/a><\/strong> in the early 1990s.

A hot gas\/oil pipeline that carried gas from a flow station failed because 85% of the pipe\u2019s wall had corroded away, the result of saturated thermal insulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In another case, severe corrosion occurred under polyurethane (PU) insulation on a hot tank. The insulation contained halogens from the fire retardant that had been applied to it. Water had combined with the halogens to create an environment of pH 1 accelerating the corrosion process.&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.penderlo.com\/doc\/Dow_CUI.pdf\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>HPC\u00ae insulation method is much different than the traditional \u201cwrap\u201d insulation materials that only slow down the loss of heat (known as an R-rating or \u201cheat transfer\u201d). The eight ceramic compounds create a barrier to catch and hold heat on the surface of the unit, e.g. pipe, furnace surface, boiler, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike wraps that use air as the insulation component, the ceramic compounds in&nbsp;<strong>HPC<\/strong>\u00ae&nbsp;resist absorbing heat trying to come off the surface to escape. This traps and holds the heat onto the surface for more effective insulation performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The current talk of using &#8220;super hydrophobic&#8221; resins to impregnate existing materials only reduces the air space, which is the main insulation medium used. Reducing moisture is a plus. Any dry material is a better insulator than any wet material (example: if a screen is replacing jacketing, the screen conducts heat). Adding structure can reduce the insulation effect. At the end of the day, it&#8217;s simple &#8211; and proven: <strong>HPC<\/strong>\u00ae and <strong>HPC\u00ae &#8211; HT<\/strong> effectively eliminate CUI without adding structure, while blocking humidity and air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Traditional Pipe Insulation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional hot pipe insulation presents numerous inefficiencies and only slows the conductive heat transfer process because it contains small pockets of air. With <strong>HPC\u00ae \/ HPC\u00ae &#8211; HT Coating<\/strong>, heat loss is controlled by the light weight, low-density ceramics which results in more heat being held on the surface and increased temperature\/pressure inside the pipe or vessel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional pipe insulation continually suffers from costly maintenance in large industrial piping systems. By absorbing air and moisture, traditional pipe insulation systems deteriorate rapidly, lose insulation performance, and cause <a href=\"https:\/\/neotechcoatings.com\/protective-coatings\/solutions\/corrosion-protection\/corrosion-under-insulation-cui\/\" title=\"Corrosion Under Insulation \u2013 CUI\"><strong>CUI<\/strong><\/a>. In addition, the inability of traditional pipe insulation to cover and seal the valves, joints and elbows of various systems also creates gaps in protection for industries that depend on high heat efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>ROCKWOOL\/FIBERGLASS WITH METAL JACKET<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>HPC\u00ae COATING<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>INSTALLATION<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Must shut down operation to install<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">HPC\u00ae COATING is installed without a shutdown<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>INSULATION EFFECTIVENESS<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Deteriorates rapidly and loses insulating value when moisture is present plus elbows &amp;

These compounds are then blended into unique resin systems to carry the ceramics onto surfaces and hold them together in a mesh-like structure, without becoming a conduit for heat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to cover all four points of concern: <strong>Insulation<\/strong>, <strong>CUI<\/strong>, <strong>Personnel Protection<\/strong> and <strong>Energy Reduction<\/strong>.

The HPC can be applied at 7mm \/ 300 wet mils per pass. Time must be given to allow this thickness to dry to the touch and through the coating. Therefore, warm sunny days would require two days to dry before the next coat is applied. Same time is given each time to try and get as much of the water out of the system as possible so that the next coat can adhere and hang properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the system is turned on later, the heat needs to be turned on gradual and given a day in this gradual rise in heat so that the trapped moisture is allowed to slowly escape. If the heat is turned on fast, the moisture can steam and bubble the coating surface when trying to exit the coating film quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hot Substrates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2.<\/strong> If the pipe is operational and hot, this makes the application of HPC much easier and faster. The surface is hot and the initial coats should be applied very thin (.5-7mm \/ 20-30 mils) to allow the steam to escape quickly without bubbling the coating film. After several coats with these mils, the additional applications can be increased in thickness as the surface temperature is not as hot. Then the applied thickness can be 7mm \/ 300 mils wet per application until the desired thickness is achieved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As to dry mils that the HPC can be applied and hold integrity can be up to 3-4&#8243; if desired. The coating is light weight and can hold its&#8217; form easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>HPC is a 70% solids by volume coating and therefore will be applied as an example at 17.7mm \/ 700 mils wet resulting in a (17.7 x 70%) = 12.4mm \/ 490 mils dry film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The manufacturer does not recommend using wet sponges to smooth surface due to the fact that the rough surface is a more efficient control of surface heat for safety reasons. When the applicator is spraying the coating and using a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.charmans.com.au\/spray-painting-pump-equipment\/product\/texspray-rtx-1500-electric-texture-sprayer.html\" title=\"\">Graco TexSpray 1500<\/a> air assist machine, apply the final coat by turning up the machine to the highest air pressure so that the coating is misting out. Hold the gun  18 to 60cm \/ 18&#8243; to 24&#8243; away from the surface and allow the misting as you move the gun side to side to lay a thin layer until the surface smooths out. This method is better than using a wet sponge to smooth the surface just before the surface dries fully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"hpc-and-top-coat-protection\">HPC<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> and Top Coat Protection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If a durable protective finish is required because of the surrounding environment, such as physical, mechanical abuse or over pipes subject to vibration, apply as follows.
