Abstract

Glassflake reinforced lining and coating systems have been under continuous development and evaluation for nearly two decades. For the last 15 years they have been extensively used and are now available in a variety of formulations to suit most corrosive environments. These systems combine abrasion and erosion with corrosion resistance in a unique way to provide cost effective protection to a wide range of plant and equipment. Because of this, these materials are gaining wide acceptance by the specifier and engineer alike, and the term F.R.P. has gained a new meaning — Flake Reinforced Plastic.
