AIN TSILA DEVELOPMENT PROJECT (JI-2045)
SIGMATHERM™ 230
DESCRIPTION
Two-component, high-build, heat-resistant epoxy phenol novolac coating
PRINCIPAL CHARACTERISTICS
• Provides a corrosion resistant barrier on carbon steel and stainless steel under thermal insulation
• Suitable as heat resistant system under insulation up to 230°C (450°F)
• Suitable for use in cryogenic conditions
• Passes cryogenic cyclic test down to -196°C (-321°F)
• Excellent protection and resistance against corrosion and severe chemicals
• Excellent resistance to thermal shock during rapid wet & dry cycling
• Meets CS-1, 3 and 4 for carbon steels under thermal insulation according to NACE SP0198-10
• Meets SS-1, 2 and 3 for stainless steels under thermal insulation according to NACE SP0198-10
• No post-curing is required to obtain mechanical strength
• Can be applied on hot substrate up to 150°C (302°F), please contact your PPG representative for detail
Note: Epoxy coatings will chalk and fade upon exposure to sunlight, elevated temperatures, or chemical exposure.
Discoloration and normal chalking does not impact performance. Light colors will darken over time. Some batch-to-batch
variation in color is to be expected. Color matches are approximate.
Volume solids 68 ± 2%
Theoretical spreading rate 4.5 m²/l for 150 µm (182 ft²/US gal for 6.0 mils)
SIGMATHERM™ 230
Shelf life Base: at least 12 months when stored cool and dry
Hardener: at least 12 months when stored cool and dry
Notes:
- See ADDITIONAL DATA – Overcoating intervals
- See ADDITIONAL DATA – Curing time
- To avoid crack in elevated temperature, it is recommended that the total average dry film thickness not exceed 350 µm (14 mils) and
locally 400 µm (16 mils)

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• For paint and recommended thinners see INFORMATION SHEETS 1430, 1431 and relevant Material Safety Data Sheets
• This is a solvent-borne paint and care should be taken to avoid inhalation of spray mist or vapor, as well as contact
between the wet paint and exposed skin or eyes
WORLDWIDE AVAILABILITY
It is always the aim of PPG Protective and Marine Coatings to supply the same product on a worldwide basis. However, slight
modification of the product is sometimes necessary to comply with local or national rules/circumstances. Under these
circumstances an alternative product data sheet is used.
