Question: “We are a local energy facility and our coal chutes take a beating. We have tried using a ceramic epoxy putty to repair the problem areas, but this product is quite expensive and not very durable. Does your company have anything that will withstand abuse on a daily basis and is also cost effective?”
Answer: “We have a product called Carbide Epoxy Putty. This is a 100% solids, novolac epoxy compound that is designed to repair and resurface areas that require protection from abrasive attack. This product incorporates Silicon Carbide in to the polymer matrix. This material is second only to diamond in hardness and durability. It is also resistant to chemicals, impact, corrosion, and abrasion. It will adhere to a variety of surfaces, particularly all types of metal and concrete.” — Mr. Chemist
