Surface Preparation - METALCLAD
CeramAlloy™ CP+ should only be applied to clean, dry and well roughened surfaces. |
|
1. Remove all loose material and surface contamination and clean with a suitable solvent which leaves no residue on the surface after evaporation such as acetone, MEK, isopropyl alcohol, etc.
2. Clean / roughen surface by abrasive blasting.
3. If necessary, apply moderate heat and/or allow the component(s) to "leach" to remove ingrained contaminants.
4. Thoroughly roughen surfaces by abrasive blasting to achieve a "white metal" degree of cleanliness and an anchor pattern of 3 mils |
|
Note: In situations where adhesion is not desired, such as when making molds and patterns or to ease future disassembly, apply a suitable release agent (mold release compound, paste wax, etc.) to the appropriate surfaces.
Mixing and Application - For your convenience, the METALCLAD
CeramAlloy™ CP+ Base and Activator have been supplied in precisely measured quantities to simplify mixing of full units. Should a small amount of material be required, measure out 2 parts Base and 1 part Activator by volume (2:1, v/v) on a clean mixing surface. Keep Base and Activator separated until ready to mix and apply.
Using a spatula, putty knife or other appropriate tool, mix thoroughly until all streaks disappear, resulting in a uniform color and consistency. Spread material out in a thin layer over the mixing surface to force out any trapped air. This procedure will also maximize working time.
Some deeply eroded areas, e.g. cut-waters, impeller leading edges, diffuser vanes, etc. may require the use of ENECON® Reinforcement Tape or other suitable means to bridge the damaged
area(s) followed by the application of additional material.
Health and Safety - Every effort is made to insure that ENECON® products are as simple and safe to use as possible. Normal industry standards and practices for housekeeping, cleanliness and personal protection should be observed.
Please refer to the detailed MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEETS (MSDS) supplied with the material (also available on request) for more information.
Cleaning Equipment - Wipe excess material from tools immediately. Use acetone,
MEK, isopropyl alcohol or similar solvent as needed.
Technical Support - The ENECON® engineering team is always available to provide technical support and assistance. For guidance on difficult application procedures or for answers to simple questions, call your local ENECON® Fluid Flow Systems Specialist or the ENECON® Engineering Center. |
