The utilization of a specific elastomeric coating system in secondary containment applications stems from its inherent properties and performance characteristics. This coating creates a seamless, durable barrier designed to prevent the release of hazardous materials into the environment. For example, a chemical storage facility may employ this coating within its containment dikes to prevent leaks or spills from contaminating the surrounding soil and groundwater.
The selection of this coating is driven by several key factors, including its rapid curing time, exceptional chemical resistance, and ability to withstand extreme temperatures and physical stresses. This rapid application and return-to-service capability minimizes downtime and operational disruptions. Its robust barrier properties provide long-term protection, reducing the risk of environmental damage and associated remediation costs. Historically, alternative materials often lacked the flexibility and durability required to effectively contain aggressive chemicals and withstand the harsh conditions found in many industrial settings.
