ARCOR® S-16

ARCOR® S-16 is a solvent-free epoxy coating specifically designed to provide reliable protection for metals in immersion service. This advanced coating solution creates a durable, chemical-resistant, and flexible barrier, making it highly suitable for aggressive water environments, including salt and brackish water conditions. The multi-functional chemistry of ARCOR® S-16 enables it to serve as a versatile coating, offering excellent performance in moderate acid and caustic environments, as well as in water applications. It is a fine choice for various general-purpose epoxy coating needs. Moreover, ARCOR® S-16 holds several certifications, including NSF certification for potable water, USDA approval for incidental food contact in meat and poultry production, and compliance with FDA Guideline CFR 21 Section 175.300, allowing for repeated food contact use. ARCOR Epoxy Technologies can tailor make or reformulate the product to suit customer needs. Please reach out if you need a custom formulated product!
