Hydraulic engineering – High resistance against corrosion and abrasion
In hydraulic engineering effective and durable corrosion protection is particularly essential. This pertains to steel structures, which are permanently exposed to water, such as for instance sheet pile walls, breakwater structures, water gates, dams and barrages.
High-quality elastic polyurethane coating systems based on raw materials like Desmodur® and Desmophen® are highly resistant against water, salts, aggressive chemicals and abrasion. Since they are fast drying and curing they can be applied within the time window of a tidal cycle. Moreover, these coatings are compatible with cathodic protection systems that is often needed in these environments.
