Densit® Coat Q25 is a shrinkage compensated high performance concrete with extreme capability to bind to old as well as new concrete surfaces. Densit® Coat Q25 provides an impermeable barrier that effectively prevents penetration of chlorides. Densit® Coat Q25 is especially suitable for patching of spalled concrete and resurfacing of damaged concrete. Densit® Coat Q25 is applied in 5-40 mm thickness by use of wet spraying equipment on vertical as well as horizontal surfaces, - even over-head on horizontal surfaces. (For lining thicker than 40mm anchoring and mesh must be used.) Densit® Coat Q25 can be glazed or covered with Densit® Coat Q5.

Installation

Wear-Con Densit® Coat Q25™ can be installed in five steps:

  1. The base concrete is prepared by planning, scrabbling and water saturation.
  2. Damaged reinforcement steel is replaced. Densit® Coat Q25 dry mortar is mixed with water in a batch mixer.
  3. The mortar is pumped to the spraying nozzle by using e.g. a Putzmeister S5 pump.

Download attachments:

Concrete silos spalling due to age and weather has become a huge problem. Conventional patching has only proven to be temporary at best. There has been no solution...until now. Wear-Con & Densit® have the solution. Q25™ is a shrinkage compensated high performance concrete with an extreme capability to bind to old, as well as new, concrete surfaces. Q25™ provides an impermeable barrier that effectively prevents penetration of chlorides and moisture. (For lining thicker than 40mm anchoring and mesh must be used.)

First the surface to be repaired is thourghly cleaned and the old rebar is primed. Extra vertical rebar is welded into place if the spalding is deep. Heavy expanded metal reinforcement mesh is welded on the new vertical rebar. This mesh is what gives Q25™ its support while being sprayed and while curing for lining thicker than 40mm. Thickness of Q25™ is critical in the application. The the mesh has to be positioned properly. Measurements are taken to ensure the final product will be correct.

The entire prepped area is soaked down with water to ensure a proper bond. Densit® Q25™ dry mortar is mixed with water in a batch mixer. When ready, the mortar is pumped to the spraying nozzle. Even and consistent spray application is used ensuring that no voids exist behind the mesh. Densit® Q25™ is applied in 5-40 mm thickness by use of wet spraying equipment on vertical as well as horizontal and even over-head surfaces. (For lining thicker than 40mm anchoring and mesh must be used.) Spraying continues until all mesh is covered completely. Densit® Q5™ is a thin topcoat applied over Q25™. Q5™ provides an absolute barrier that effectively prevents penetration of chlorides and moisture. Densit® Q5™ is applied in 3-8 mm thickness and is oversprayed past the Q25™ layer.

Wear-Con Densit® Curing Compound is a surface sealer that is applied to all Densit® wear protection products after installation to retain water in the lining throughout the curing period. It reduces shrinkage and thus also the risk of poor bonding and minimize crack formation. The Densit® Curing Compound must be applied as a uniform coating after surface preparation has been achieved. It will dry in approximately 4 hours depending on the temperature and moisture of the atmosphere.

In 2008 Wear-Concepts took on a riddle that presented itself at a Midwest coal burning power plant. The conundrum was found in the labyrinth of the upper and lower Riffle Housings. The purpose of the Riffles is to equalize the pressure drop of the Pulverized Coal headed for the boiler. The Riffle Housing is in constant contact with pulverized coal, which causes wear. A large amount of wear at the exit and near the edges of the Riffle Elements was costing the plant a bundle in repairs. The power plant’s maintenance team was rebuilding the housings once every year with hardsurface welding rod. It took one man working ten-hour days for one full week to build up the housings and get them back into service.

Features & Benefits

Wear-Con Densit® Densulate™ Internally Insulated Wear Protection System is designed to protect components from erosive wear, while at the same time reducing heat loss by radiation. Densulate™ combines insulation and wear protection, consisting of an insulation layer followed by a Densit® wear protection lining. Economical and easy to install, Densulate™ eliminates the need for external insulation, lowers construction costs, and reduces component weight and size.

Installation

Wear-Con Densit® Densulate™ can be installed in the following manner:

  1. Weld Densulate™ pins to the inner casing of the part or component. For operating temperatures up to 750°F, mild or stainless steel components may be used. For operating temperatures above 750°F, only stainless steel components of type 1.4301 may be used.
  2. Install and fix insulation (such as Densit® Super-Isol™/1100™ Densulate™ Insulation Slabs). Place Densulate™ self-fastening clips and spacers at pins.
  3. Install mesh and fix by bending excess length of pins neatly into insulation.
  4. Apply Densit® Bonding Compound to make a water-repellent surface.
  5. Apply a Densit® wear protection lining (such as WearSpray™, WearFlex™, or WearCast™)
  6. Apply Densit® Curing Compound.
  7. Allow to dry. For drying times, consult the Densit® Drying Curve in the Densit® Installation Manual. For further installation information, see the Densit® Installation Manual.

Technical Specifications

Wear-Con Densit® Densulate™ can be used in operating temperatures up to 2190°F, with thermal conductivity at 1112°F = 0.10 W/m·K. Mortar is used to fill any gaps, and the thickness of the insulation layer depends upon operating temperatures and acceptable heat loss.

Sizes

Wear-Con Densit® Densulate™ systems vary according to process parameters including temperature, media type, and component size and geometry.

Cure for the Baghouse Blues

Ammonia. Who would have known that the introduction of ammonia would have such troubling effects on baghouses at cement plants?

Take, as an example, an established cement plant in the southwestern part of the United States. Its baghouses were thirty years old and had experienced very little to no wear, and they had never experienced any rusting at all. However, due to NOx levels in the system, the EPA and the company’s environmental department made them introduce ammonia into the system for the purpose of reducing the levels. That worked. Unfortunately, the side effects were devastating. Because of the ammonia and condensation from varying humidity levels, a very aggressive and corrosive reaction began. The PH levels began to fluctuate between eight and nine. Actual flakes of rust from the corroding baghouses were blown out of the stack and were seen all over the parking lot and on vehicles.

Upon further inspection of the baghouses, it was found that holes had begun to develop and were leaking as well. The cement company’s environmental department saw this as an environmental hazard. The leakage in the baghouse needed to be sealed up and stop the rusting as well.
