Description

A heat

resistant, VOC compliant, silicone

copolymer Color/ Temperature Summary

coating designed primarily for temperature indicating

applications in the 400

°-

°

F (200

C) range.

When applied to refinery and petrochemical process

equipment operating at elevated temperatures the color

change provided by Thurmalox 260C

TIC gives an

early warning of vessel overheating due to failure of

refractory linings or bypassing of hot gases.

Surface Preparation

Carbon Steel

1. To ensure optimum long

term coating system

performance, surfaces must be clean, dry and free

from dirt, oil, grease, salts, welding flux, mill scale,

rust, oxides, old paint, corrosion products or other

foreign matter.

From ambient temperature to point of failure Thurmalox

26OC

TIC maintains a high degree of color stability

.

Generally color changes occur over a temperature

range of 25

50

F depending on specific formulation.

Thurmalox 260C

TIC also provides the same out



standing performance and application properties as

other coatings in the Thurmalox 260C TIC silicone

copolymer series, as described in Bulletin 260C TIC,

and it is suitable for direct application to hot surfaces of

operating process equipment.
