Inorganic acids are one of the major corrosive agents in common usage within industry. Whether it is primary or secondary containment or splashing and spillage during handling or processing, most metal and masonry surfaces will be rapidly degraded by contact with these chemicals.

Belzona® 4341 extends Belzona's range of problem solving materials to areas operating at higher temperatures, and with post-cure, will provide unrivalled protection to inorganic acids at elevated temperatures.
For optimum performance post-cure should be carried out prior to the coating being put back into service, but for many applications the unique chemistry of this outstanding product allows in-situ postcure to be undertaken.
By utilizing a totally novel tertiary cure acid catalysable resin system, exposure to inorganic acid leads to additional crosslinking of the polymer matrix. This forms a water and acid impermeable barrier at the coating surface. Add to this the careful selection of acid resistant fillers which bond and pack tightly within the densely crosslinked polymer chains and it can be seen why Belzona® 4341 is the material of choice for elevated temperature applications involving contact with mineral acids.
