Product Properties And ResultsOur goal in marketing Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 is to identify the need and benefit of Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 as opposed to conventional methods, compile data to determine standards of specifica-tions for similar markets throughout the industry, and then directly approach sources responsible for deter-mining specifications relayed to costs, capital improvements and maintenance.

Identifying the need and benefits of Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 is simply understanding the properties and advantages of the product.

Properties such as:

InsulationApplied Technical Services, Inc. in Marietta, GA performed a comparison test with Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 material versus a sample of R-20 (R-5/in) Styrofoam for Temperature Resistivity/Heat Reflec-tion. The procedure was to construct two identical galvanized steel boxes in the form of miniature houses. House A was filled with four inches of the identified styrofoam insulation and House B’s exterior was coated with Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 to a thickness of 0.016 of an inch. Each house was insulated in the same areas to simulate identical uninsulated volume.

For this particular test, the temperatures inthe house coated with the Ceramic Cover CCSystems 100 were on the average 7.8ºFcooler than the temperatures in the housefilled with the R-20 Styrofoam.

OCM Test Laboratories in Anaheim, CAfactored R values for Ceramic Cover CCSystems 100 based on thinnest measuredthickness on a 12 x 12 test square.

Test results are below. Note: Maximum Air Temperature Achieved Adjacent to House: 170º F.

Insulation continued...

Due to the differentiating measurements of density from sprayed application, it is difficult to get a consistent R Value. Therefore, R values must be equated by averaging the combined test results. According to OCM Laboratories, Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 has an R Value of 14.4 per inch remarkably out performing all insulation’s charted below from the National Bureau of Standards and the ASHARE 1977 Fundamentals Handbook. However Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 has never been needed in a thickness over 1/4 of and inch.

Test results have proven that one coat or 20 mil of Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 eliminates radiant heat and reduces temperature greatly (60ºF to 80ºF degrees) on hot surfaces.

Additional coats contribute a reduction in temperature between 40ºF to 45ºF. See Delta T Chart below for more information regarding mil thickness based on temperatures.

Protection from UV RaysCeramic Cover CC Systems 100 can be applied directly over composites with 100% adhesion and no chemical adverse effect (i.e. tar roofing, asphalt shingles, paint, etc.) providing protection against UV Rays as wellas insulating.

Action Testing, Inc., a certified testing laboratory in Tucker, GA reported “coating material found to be extremely durable and high quality, ‘heat barrier’ and reflected 95% to 98% of all radiant heat. The high percentage of radiant heat reflected would be comparable to a rating of R-20 at a 13 mil thickness.” Additional testing by Action Testing, Inc. was performed on 1 inch of foam coated with 16 mils of Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100.

Foam has a tendency to crumble and split when exposed to ultra violent rays. However, when the foam wascovered with a thin coat of Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 and tested; the conclusion reported: “The Envirotrol coating offers protection against the normal problems of foam, therefore, it preserves the effectiveness of such insulating materials.

The coating was also found to remain flexible at temperatures as low as -30º F, also this additional coating on 1.00 pcf density foam provides the dimensional stability and compressive strength normally found in higher cost 3.0 pcf densities without paying the higher price”.

AdhesionCeramic Cover CC Systems 100 has been tested for adhesion by tests corresponding to ASTM D-3359, a cross hatch adhesion test, resulting in a score of 100% (the highest on a scale of 1 to 100). Furthermore, Dunkin & Bush, Inc. an industrial paint contractor in Seattle, WA, performed a Elcometer Adhesion Test. Coating was spray applied using air assisted airless equipment.

The coating thickness ranges from 75 mils DFT to 45 mils DFT across the tested coupon on tightly adhered mil scale. The initial test was performed 20 days after application. The result was a pull strength of 210 psi at 74 mils DFT. The coating was disbonded leaving 3-6 mils on the substrate. The final pull test was performed about 30 days after final cure."...Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 reaches full adhesive strength prior to final cure."

The result was a pull strength of 210 psi at 45 mils DFT. The coating again disbonded leaving 3-4 mils on the substrate. Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 has been tested under ASTM D4541 Test Method for pull of strength of Coating using portable adhesion testers. The conclusions are that Ceramic Cover CC Systems 100 reaches full adhesive strength prior to final cure. Further conclusion based on disbondment within the coating shows an actual stronger bond to the substrate surface.
