IPNET
Interpenetrating Polymer Network Concrete Coating System
____________________________________________________________________
Interpenetrating Polymer Network Coating System is a novel type of polymer formulation consisting of more
than two polymers cross linked in the network form by synthesis. The morphology studies conducted at
CBRI, Roorkee using Scanning Electron Microscopy & Differential Scanning Calorimetry have proved the
efficacy of IPNet systems with respect to Chemical Resistance, Weather Resistance, Tensile Strength,
Flexibility, Shear Strength & Hardness Properties.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS :
Protective coating for concrete Bridges, Bridge Decks, Girders. Pier columns, Parapet, Pipelines and Plant
lying in saline atmosphere/marine environment conditions.
Protective coating of metal pipes, tanks drainage systems, manhole covers etc. Protective coatings for
hydraulic structure like Sluice Gates, Trash racks, Penstocks etc.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
Surface Preparation: Clean the concrete surface by chipping/wire brushing and remove all loose particles,
dust, oil stains, residual curing agents, demoulding agents. Prior to IPNet application, seal all the cracks,
joints etc. with putty made up of IPNet Primer and silica flour.
Application : Mix IPNet Base and Curing Agent in the prescribed proportion by volume thoroughly and
allow it to remain in the container for 10 minutes. Apply respective coat of IPNet keeping time interlag of
minimum 24 hours between each coat and allow the system to cure in air for 24 hours prior to use.
