Introduction
This technical document is to provide detailed information regarding the laboratory and field testing
which has been performed as an analysis of the Thermaguard™ TIC 400 liquid applied insulation
coating. Results are based on various systems including DTM and primed (Thermaguard™ CUI 300
and 650 were both tested) surfaces to gain evaluation of performance in both laboratory and field
conditions.
Performance Polymers employees, whom are trained in laboratory procedures including safety,
conducted the following experiment in a controlled and certified laboratory; any replications of this
experiment do so at their own risk. Field applications were conducted by contractors who were
trained in safety and site regulations.

Field test application conditions:
Both Thermaguard™ CUI 650 and Thermaguard™ TIC 400 coatings were applied at temperatures
between 200 - 220oC (392 - 430oF.) on an in service pipeline using a mist coat application technique
at around 500 - 1000 microns per layer, building up to 5000 - 6000µm with sufficient drying times
included.
Day 1. Surface preparation and Thermaguard™ CUI 650 application
Day 1. Thermaguard™ TIC 400 application
Application equipment used was Graco RTX 5500. The machine application capability was
application rate of one sqm in <1-3 minutes at 5000 microns (ambient conditions). Hot application
mist coat technique was adopted and worked successfully with sufficient steam-off times, which
ranged from 1 – 30 minutes dependant on the thickness and temperature of the insulation coating.
After 12 month’s service including adhesion testing and touch up

Adhesion testing was performed and found no difference between DTM and over TMG CUI 650
primer after 12 months, although laboratory testing supports the necessary requirement for a
suitable CUI primer (Thermaguard™ CUI 650). After adhesion testing was undertaken, a touch up
application was performed by a conventional hand-held hopper unit to seal any damage caused and
the coating returned to the specified thickness.
