Fosroc 230 200L Nitoproof

The key features of Fosroc Nitocote include corrosion resistance, excellent adhesion, moisture compatibility, good flexibility, and impact strength. The products are designed to provide a durable, protective coating that can withstand harsh environments.

Fosroc Nitocote is primarily used to protect internal concrete surfaces in cooling towers (IDCT and NDCT) of thermal power plants and water treatment plants (STPs and ETPs). It is also suitable for other industrial applications requiring a corrosion-resistant coating.

The Fosroc Nitocote product range includes Nitocote EM300, Nitocote EP405, and Nitocote EP410. Each product is designed for specific applications and has technical specifications and performance characteristics.

Fosroc Nitocote products require proper surface preparation before application, such as smoothing concrete surfaces. The products are typically applied in two coats for the recommended dry film thickness. Application should be done within the specified temperature and humidity ranges.

Fosroc Nitocote products should not be applied over existing coatings, and the application should be avoided when the temperature is below 10°C or the relative humidity exceeds 90%. When exposed to UV light and chemicals, the products may also exhibit colour changes over time.

Fosroc Nitocote products should be stored in a dry place between 5°C and 30°C in their original, unopened containers. The shelf life is typically 12 months but may be reduced if stored at high temperatures. Proper safety precautions should be taken during handling and application, as the products can irritate the eyes, skin, and respiratory system.

Fosroc Nitoproof 230 is a high-build, rubber-reinforced bitumen emulsion used for waterproofing. It forms a flexible, black coating that protects concrete and masonry from water ingress.

It is suitable for horizontal and vertical surfaces, ideal for roofs, basements, and retaining walls, providing a durable waterproof barrier.

It can be applied with a brush, roller, or spray equipment. Multiple coats are recommended, with proper drying time between applications.

The product dries to a black finish, with excellent adhesion and flexibility, accommodating substrate movement without cracking.

Coverage is approximately 1 to 1.5 square meters per litre per coat, varying with substrate texture and porosity. Multiple coats may be needed.

Suitable for cooler temperatures but avoid very low temperatures and wet conditions. Ensure the substrate is clean and dry.

Wear PPE, including gloves and masks, to avoid skin and respiratory irritation. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed safety instructions.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keep containers tightly sealed when not in use.
