Tank linings

Coating of tanks used for the transportation of chemical cargoes serves two purposes: protecting the cargo against contamination from previous cargoes, and protecting the tank against corrosive chemicals. These two purposes go hand in hand, and both require from the tanklining that it must be resistant to the cargoes and sequences of cargoes to be carried.

- HEMPADUR 1550 is a phenolic epoxy which is resistant to the major part of cargoes carried in chemical tankers. Having demonstrated through excellent performance results that it is among the best tanklinings on the market, HEMPADUR 15500 is the natural choice where the highest possible resistance and a close sequence of cargoes are required. It is also extensively used by operators opting for the flexibility to carry a wide number of cargoes offered by the very broad resistance provided.

- HEMPEL'S GALVOSIL 1570 is a zinc silicate based tanklining where the cured film is purely inorganic and fully resistant to most organic solvents and generally allows a close sequence of cargoes.

- HEMPADUR 1540 is an amine epoxy, and is the typical choice in connection with cargoes of oil and oil products, fats, certain fertilisers and caustic soda.
