Korepox EH2350 (Two-Component)
Product
Description
A two-component, polyamine cured pure epoxy resin based self-priming, anti-abrasion coating with
excellent resistance to seawater, crude oil, fuel oil and abrasion. Applicable over new or old steel
requiring only the removal of loose rust as a surface tolerant coating, workable at low temperature
even -18 /-0.4 and meets VOC requirements as high solids coating.
Approved as a Corrosion Control Coating for water ballast tanks by Lloyds Register of Shipping
(LR) and Germanischier Lloyd (GL) and excellent water ballast tank coating
(B-1 Class) from
MARINTEK/DNV. Approved as a Fire Retardant Coating by Det Norske Veritas (DNV, CE
Marking), Lloyd's Register of Shipping (LR) and Korean Register of Shipping (KR) and a NonContamination Paint for grain cargoes by New Castle Occupational Health Agent (UK), It is in full
accordance with the requirements in NORSOK M-501, rev. 4, System No 7.
Packing
Korepox EH2350 is supplied as two separate packages.

-. Base (Part A) and Curing agent (Part B) in the correct proportion for the mixture. Do not open
package until use. Each package (Base and Curing agent) must be used entirely for mixing to
ensure the mixing ratio. Left-over material in the packages cannot be used.
Recommended Use
As an anti-corrosion and anti-abrasion coating for long-life protection of steel structures in severely
corrosive environment such as Underwater hull outside, Boottop, Topside, Exposed parts of ship,
Water ballast tank, Cargo holds, etc. As a tank coating for ships crude oil tanks, fuel oil tanks and
interior of pipe lines transfer crude oils, etc.
Applicable to steel structures for offshore projects, plants, bridges and others.
For application in water ballast tanks at newbuilding stage in accordance with PSPC
(IMO Res. MSC.215(82), see the Technical Information for PSPC Applications-Korepox EH2350

Application Details
Surface
Preparation
Remove any oil, grease, dirt and any other contaminants from the surface before painting by proper
method such as solvent cleaning and fresh water washing, etc.
- Blast cleaning to Sa2 or power tool cleaning to St3, etc.
- Profile requirements
: 30 ~ 75 in case of full or partial blast cleaning.
Application
Condition
The surface should be adequately clean and dry. Do not apply when relative humidity is above 85 %.
The surface temperature should be at least 3C / 5F above dew point to prevent condensation.
Temperature during application and curing is preferable from -18C / 0F to 49C / 120F. This
temperature condition is for the substrate and surrounding air.
Mixing
EH2350PTA (Part A, Base) : EH2350PTB (Part B, Curing agent) = 4 : 1 (by volume)

- Mix with supplied mixing ratio only. Do not vary or subdivide.
- Before mixing, shake or stir the Base very thoroughly.
- Pour the curing agent into the Base with constant mechanical stirring.
Do not mix in reverse order.
Continuous stirring until mixture is free of lumps
