Chemline, Inc. (St. Louis, Missouri, USA), a manufacturer of high-performance polyurethane, polyurea, and hybrid coatings for a variety of applications, is now offering its Chemline ARC coating, which adheres well to concrete with the use of a primer and meets leading industry standards for potable water. 

The product is widely used in both the construction and contractor markets due to its strong physical properties and resistance to moisture. Typical applications include secondary containment for oil and gas, wastewater basins, parking garages, foundations, and water ponds. 

The product is a fast-set, spray-applied, two-component polyurea that contains 100% solids and zero volatile organic compounds. It is a pure polyurea, meaning that it yields better chemical resistance and handles a wider range of temperature fluctuations. It also offers superior corrosion protection and chemical resistance. 

The polyurea exhibits excellent impact resistance, even in subfreezing weather. With a 12-s gel time, it provides rapid turnaround and reduces labor costs. 

The product must be applied using a high-pressure, heated plural component pump.
