ZRC ZERO VOC
Water-Based Galvanizing Compound
ZRCs revolutionary new water-based galvanizing compound offers a green solution to problems of traditional inorganic zinc and solvent-based coatings.
Enjoy the following great benefits with ZRCs ZERO VOC: Passes 9-year subtropical testing No solvents or solvent fumes Ideal for manufacturers and LEED building projects 93% zinc in the dry film using only Type III ultra pure ASTM-D-520 zinc Extreme temperature and abrasion resistence Passes 10,000 hours salt spray testing without failure (ASTM Des. B117) ISO 9001 registration assures the highest quality consistently Passes Preece Test (ASTM Des. A239) for hot-dip galvanizing Meets and exceeds MIL-P-26915A (USAF Zinc Dust Primer); SSPC-Paint 20 (Specification for Zinc Rich Primer) For specification assistance, application assistance, test reports and product selection please contact our customer support at (800) 831-3275 or our website www.zrcworldwide.com.
APPLICATIONS Galvanize bare metal conveniently in your own facility without the transportation and costs of hot-dip galvanizing. The natural solution for: LEED Construction Projects OEM Petrochemical plants Metal fabricators Tanks Marine and offshore and hundreds more!
THE ZRC ZERO VOC DIFFERENCE
ZRC ZERO VOC solves the problems inherent in traditional inorganic zinc coatings: near-white sandblasting, difficult spraying, short pot life. Weve resolved these issues by creating a unique hybrid featuring the best features of organic and traditional inorganic zinc coatings. As a result, ZRC ZERO VOC offers the same true cathodic protection as our original ZRC, without volatile organic content. No sandblasting required* Longer pot life Applies easily without clogging spray equipment More abrasion resistent and faster drying One coat coverage with second coat option Safe and solvent-free application * See Surface Preparation section of Technical Specifications
TESTING & SPECIFICATION CONFORMANCE DATA
Meets and exceeds Fed. Spec. MIL-P-26915A (USAD Zinc Dust Primer) Passes over 10,000 hours salt spray testing without failure** (ASTM Des. B117) Passes Preece Test (ASTM Des. A239) for hot-dip galvanizing Resists intermittent dry-heat temperatures up to 1700F Meets and exceeds SSPC-Paint 20 (Specification for Zinc Rich Primer), Type I (inorganic), Level I, Type III zinc dust AVAILABILITY/COST Immediately available off the shelf, ZRC ZERO VOC Galvanizing Compound is offered directly from the manufacturer, or through a worldwide distribution network. The initial cost of ZERO VOC is more than offset by substantial maintenance savings and the increased service life of protected surfaces. ZERO VOC is available in gallon kits.

MATERIALS/FINISHES A unique formulation of 93% pure zinc metal as a liquid coating, ZRC ZERO VOC is manufactured to exacting standards in our own state-of-the-art manufacturing facility.
SUGGESTED SPECIFICATION A water-based, two-component zinc-rich coating containing 93% metallic zinc (ASTM D 520 Type III), by weight, in the dried film; as manufactured by ZRC Worldwide, Marshfield, MA (www.zrcworldwide.com) or other facility having been registered to the International Organization for Standardization ISO 9001:2000 standard for quality. **Copy of reports available upon request
Surface Preparation Dependant upon surface condition and intended service. Typical examples include: GREASE & OILS RUST SCALE MILL SCALE WATER IMMERSION Solvent clean to SSPC-SP1 Power tool clean to SSPC-SP3 or SSPC-SP11 (SIS St 2 or 3) Sandblast to SSPC-SP6 (commercial) (100F maximum) Sandblast to SSPC-SP10 (near-white)
Application BRUSH/ROLLER SPRAY (low pressure compressor type) Atomized air pressure Fluid pressure Orifice of tip Viscosity reduction SPRAY (airless type) Pump Hose Orifice of tip Type of tip Filter screens Viscosity Recommended procedure Consult our Application Guide for ZERO VOC 50 lbs/in = 3.5 kg/cm 15-20 lbs/in = 1.1-1.4 kg/cm 0.080 inches (0.20 cm) Add water only if absolutely necessary 30:1 1/2 (1.3 cm) (I.D.) 60-0.026 inches (0.07 cm) Tungsten carbide, reversing Complete removal is recommended. However, if screens are employed, use no less than 30 mesh. No reduction required Connect hose directly to pump, without filter assembly, ensuring a hose length of 50 ft. max. Use in-pot agitator or continuous recycling. Use least pressure possible. Start at 1500 lbs/in = 105 kg/cm and increase as required for good spraying. Water
