Product catalog summary
Introduction
PPG PSX 700 is a high-performance coating solution designed for long-term steel protection. It utilizes patented siloxane technology to provide superior adhesion, toughness, corrosion, and chemical resistance, reducing the need for traditional multi-coat systems.
Key Features
  • Durability: Offers a longer service life compared to traditional epoxy/polyurethane systems.
  • Coat Reduction: Achieves optimal performance with fewer coats, typically requiring only a zinc primer and one coat of PPG PSX 700.
  • Environmental Compliance: Formulated with ultra-high solids and low volatile organic compounds, meeting stringent environmental standards.
  • Fire Resistance: Provides Class A fire resistance with low smoke generation.
Performance Benefits
  • Gloss and Color Retention: Surpasses conventional aliphatic polyurethane in maintaining gloss and color over time.
  • Corrosion and Chemical Resistance: Exceeds the performance of epoxy coatings.
  • Abrasion Resistance: Comparable to flexible aliphatic polyurethane and superior to ordinary epoxy.
  • Stain Resistance: Highly resistant to stains, graffiti, and dirt accumulation.
Cost Efficiency
  • Reduced Repainting Frequency: Extended service life leads to less frequent repainting.
  • Lower Application Costs: Fewer coats reduce material and labor costs.
  • Quick Application: Cures at room temperature and is touch-dry in two hours at 20°C (68°F).
  • Waste Management: Low VOC content reduces hazardous waste disposal costs.
Applications
  • Suitable for a wide range of structures including bridges, wind turbines, stadiums, water towers, petrochemical tanks, and more.
Conclusion
PPG PSX 700 represents a breakthrough in protective coatings technology, offering unmatched performance and durability. It is a cost-effective, environmentally friendly solution for protecting steel structures in various aggressive environments.
