Jotatemp 540 Zinc
Product description
This is a two component glass flake reinforced inorganic zinc ethyl silicate coating. It conforms to the
compositional requirements of SSPC paint 20, level 3. It provides corrosion protection as a single coat and can
be used under insulation if overcoated with a high temperature coating designed to offer protection against CUI.
It is heat resistant up to 540 °C (1004 °F). Suitable for properly prepared carbon steel substrates only. This
product complies with ASTM D520 type II zinc dust.
Typical use
Protective:
Suitable for process and piping equipment that will be exposed to elevated temperatures. Can be used at
ambient temperatures, provided it is used as a primer in a suitable coating system. Specially designed as a
primer in coating systems where extended durability at high temperature is required.

Application
Application methods
The product can be applied by
Spray: Use air spray or airless spray.

Brush: Recommended for stripe coating and small areas. Care must be taken to achieve the
specified dry film thickness. In order to avoid settling of heavy zinc, continuous
mechanical stirring during application might be necessary.

Drying and Curing time

Substrate temperature 5 °C 10 °C 23 °C 40 °C
Surface (touch) dry 1h 30 min 15 min 10 min

Walk-on-dry 1.5 h 45 min 30 min 25 min
Dry to over coat, minimum 15 h 10 h 3h 1h
Dried/cured for service 15 h 10 h 3h 1h
For maximum overcoating intervals, refer to the Application Guide (AG) for this product.
The given drying and curing times, as well as over coating intervals for inorganic zinc ethyl silicates are
measured at relative humidity (RH) 80 % during application and curing. An even higher RH will increase the
curing speed. The paint requires continuous RH above 50 % to cure.
Surface (touch) dry: The state of drying when slight pressure with a finger does not leave an imprint or reveal
tackiness.
Walk-on-dry: Minimum time before the coating can tolerate normal foot traffic without permanent marks,
imprints or other physical damage.
Dry to over coat, minimum: The recommended shortest time before the next coat can be applied.
Dried/cured for service: Minimum time before the coating can be permanently exposed to the intended
environment/medium.
Induction time and Pot life

Paint temperature 23 °C
Pot life 8h
Heat resistance
Temperature
Continuous Peak
Dry, atmospheric 540 °C 600 °C
This product can withstand a peak temperature of 600 °C (1112 °F). A continuous temperature above 540 °C
will however affect the corrosion protection of the coating. Note that at higher temperatures a suitable topcoat
will extend the life of the coating.
Peak temperature duration max. 1 hour.

The temperatures listed relate to retention of protective properties. Aesthetic properties may suffer at these
temperatures.

Product compatibility
Depending on the actual exposure of the coating system, various primers and topcoats can be used in
combination with this product. Some examples are shown below. Contact Jotun for specific system
recommendation.

The volume stated is for factory made colours. Note that local variants in pack size and filled volumes can vary
due to local regulations.
Storage
The product must be stored in accordance with national regulations. Keep the containers in a dry, cool, well
ventilated space and away from sources of heat and ignition. Containers must be kept tightly closed. Handle
with care.
Shelf life at 23 °C
Jotatemp 540 Zinc Comp A 12 month(s)
Jotatemp 540 Zinc Comp B 48 month(s)
In some markets commercial shelf life can be dictated shorter by local legislation. The above is minimum shelf
life, thereafter the paint quality is subject to re-inspection.
Caution
This product is for professional use only. The applicators and operators shall be trained, experienced and have
the capability and equipment to mix/stir and apply the coatings correctly and according to Jotun's technical
documentation. Applicators and operators shall use appropriate personal protection equipment when using this
