(9) SIS - 05 - 59 - 00 B.S. 7079

(a) RUST GRADES (b) BLAST CLEANLINESS (C) GRADES OF WIRE
GRADES BRUSHING

WITH A LITTLE OR NO RUST

B - MIXTURE OF MILLSCALE Sa 2 - THOROUGH BLAST ------------

AND RUST CLEANING

C - MILLSCALE GONE RUSTED Sa21/2 - VERY THOROUGH ST-2 - THOROUGH

AND SLIGHT PITTINGS ON BLAST CLEANING HAND AND TOOLS
SURFACE. CLEANING (MANUAL)

D - HEAVILY RUSTY AND Sa 3 - BLAST CLEANING TO ST-3 VERY THOROUGH

PITTED. VISUALLY CLEAN STEEL HAND AND TOOLS
CLEANING (MECHANICLLY)
(10) TESTING FOR SURFACE CONTAMINATION:
(a) HYGROSCOPIC TEST
(i) POTASSIUM FERRICYNIDE TEST SOLUBLE IRON SALTS,
(ii) SILVER NITRATE TEST. SOLUBLE CHLORIDES,
(b) MILL SCALE
(i) COPPER SULPHATE TEST.

(11) WET BLAST CLEANING: 100 psi to 60,000 psi

PRESSURE WASHING ONLY CLEANING 100 psi.

(12) NEEDLE GUNNING:

(13) FLAME CLEANING:
(14) CHEMICAL CLEANING: (ACID PICKLYING)

(15) PAINTS :
BINDER PIGMENT SOLVENT

1 BINDS THE PARTICLE IT GIVES COLOUR FORMS THE EVAPORATION

TOGETHER AND HOLD PART OF DRYING PROCESS
THEM IN SUSPENSION.

2 GIVES FINISH TO THE IT GIVES OPACITY IT THINS THE PAINT TO APPLY

SURFACE EASILY.

3 GIVES FLEXIBILITY IT GIVES RESISTANCE ACTS AS CLEANER FOR

TO PAINT BRUSH OR EQUIPMENTS.

4 GIVEES RESISTANCE FROM ACID,ALKALINEALS ACTS AS DEGREASING

FROM WATER, CHEMICAL AND UV RAYS OR LIGHT AGENT IF PROVED.
AND ABVASION.

5 CONVERTS THE COATING

TO A DRY FILM.

(16) ADDED INGREDIANTS :

(1) DRIER OR CATALYST

(2) EXTENDERS
(3) PLASTICISER
(4) STABILISER
(5) THIXO TROPIC AGENT
(6) ANTI SKINNING AGENT
(17) SOLVENT CHARACTERISTIC:
BINDERS SOLVENTS
STRONG EPOXY ACETONE
BINDER CHLORINATED RUBBER XYLENE
ALKYD RESIN WHITE SPIRIT
WEEK EMULSION PAINT WATER
BINDER

NOTE: THE EPOXY IS STRONG BINDER COMPARE TO EMULSION PAINT, IT IS WEEK BINDER.
THUS IT IS WRITTEN AS ASSENDING ORDER BOTH BINDERS AND SOLVENTS.

FLASH POINT: THE MINIMUM TEMPERATURE AT WHICH THE VAPOURS A LIQUID

STARTS IGNITE IF AN ENTERNAL SOURCE OF IGNITION IS INTRODUCED.
THIS IS DETERMINED IN A CLOSE CUP OF THE ABEL TYPE.
