PROJECT DETAILS
The structural steel at this particular plant is exposed to ammonia and Denso™ Hi-Tack Tape was recommended as the primary corrosion prevention system.
The tape was applied in 2005 / 2006, ten years later, upon inspection only mechanical damages were visible.
The Denso™ Hi-Tack Tape has proven to withstand fumes and chemical spillages and has exceeded the clients’ expectations. It therefore had been specified to be used on various other areas in the plant.
The lid of the ammonia tanks being exposed to fumes and spillages did not affect the performance of the Denso™ Hi-Tack Tape
Peel test done on site on the applied tape
Clear indication of wetting properties and compound residue
