In glass flake coatings, a large number of glass flakes are arranged parallel to each other in the resin matrix, extending the permeation path of corrosive media several dozen times while reducing the curing shrinkage stress and thermal expansion coefficient of the coating; they are a common lining material for highly corrosive locations such as FGD towers, chimneys, storage tanks and wastewater treatment facilities. By resin type, epoxy glass flake and vinyl ester glass flake grades are available: the epoxy type has adhesion and overall corrosion protection; the vinyl ester type has higher acid, alkali and solvent resistance and is commonly used for chemical medium tanks and FGD systems. Selection covers flake size (larger flakes give better shielding but demand more from application), recommended film thickness per coat, and resistance data for the specific chemical medium. Application is mostly high-pressure airless spray or trowelling, with surface preparation and curing conditions strictly controlled. This page compiles OEM technical data for glass flake coatings from various brands.

This page compiles original-factory technical data sheets by tag. The same model may appear under several tags at once (for example, a water-borne epoxy primer belongs to "water-borne", "epoxy" and "primer"), the more entry points a model has, the more easily it is found by search habits.
