685 Overview
SPRAY LININGS: STANDARD AIRLESS SPRAY

TECHTHANE® 685

TECHTHANE 685 is a high-build, high-solids, batch-mix urethane elastomer lining applied with standard airless spray equipment.  685 forms a seamless, highly elastomeric lining that flexes with expansion and contraction, seals seams, and bridges gaps.  685 resists corrosion from many acidic and caustic solutions, and abrasion from small particles.  685 bonds highly to prepared substrates.  As an aliphatic-hybrid urethane-urea, 685 has better hydrolytic stability, UV stability, and resistance to many chemicals than aromatic urethanes, and is not affected by moisture as are standard urethanes.  Individual coats of up to 60 mils (1.50 mm) DFT can be applied to vertical surfaces without sag, making it for most applications a one-coat system.  Typical applications involve corrosion protection and seamless containment in the transportation, waste/wastewater, mining, power generation, and pulp/paper industries.
