STANDARDS AUSTRALIA/STANDARDS NEW ZEALAND
Australian/New Zealand Standard

SECT ION 1 SCOPE AND GENERA L
1.1 SCOPE
This Standard sets out requirements for single- and multi-component primers and finishing
coats for the protection of steel against atmospheric corrosion at elevated temperatures.
Paints specified in this Standard include those described as Paint References C27, C31
and C35 in AS/NZS 2312.
Temperature resistance, colour range, gloss level and drying times vary significantly
according to type. These products can normally be applied by brush, roller or spray
although airless spray application is not suitable for some types. Abrasive blast cleaning is
the preferred method of surface preparation, however hand or power tool cleaning may be
acceptable for some products that are exposed at lower temperatures. Some products require
the application of heat to achieve their full resistance properties.
NOTES:
1 These paints may be used for the appropriate systems detailed in AS/NZS 2312.
2 Appendix A provides recommendations on information which should be provided by the
purchaser at the time of enquiry or order.
3 Additional information on the use and application of heat resisting paints is contained in
Appendix B.
4 Some products covered by this Standard may be particularly prone to discolouration or
damage due to atmospheric contamination where there are acid or alkaline conditions, and the
manufacturer’s advice should be sought.
1.2 REFERENCED DOCUMENTS

A list of the documents referred to in this Standard is contained in Appendix C.
1.3 DEFINITIONS

2.5.5 Resistance to weathering

The paint shall have a satisfactory resistance to weathering. This shall be clearly and
adequately demonstrated, by at least two documented case histories that confirm
satisfactory performance for a minimum of four years in a moderate or more severe
environment. One of these case histories shall demonstrate satisfactory performance at
continuously elevated temperatures at or near the recommended maximum. The other shall
demonstrate satisfactory performance in temperatures cycling between near ambient and the
maximum recommended temperature.
A satisfactory performance is one where the paint (system) has not allowed any integrity
failure, i.e., no cracking, flaking, blistering or rusting and in a visual assessment of erosion,
there shall not be any grinning through.
NOTE: Because of the specialized performance characteristics of these paints, weathering tests in
accordance with AS/NZS 1580.457.1 are not considered appropriate due to their inability to
simulate the high temperatures involved.

APPENDIX B
GUIDANCE ON THE USE AND APPLICATION OF HEAT RESISTING PAINTS
(Informative)
B1 SCOPE
This Appendix provides guidance on the use and application of heat resisting paints.
B2 MANUFACTURER’S TECHNICAL DATA

Before opening the containers for use, the manufacturer’s technical data sheets and label
instructions should be studied.
B3 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
The manufacturer’s material safety data sheets (MSDS) for the product should be consulted
and followed. These paints or their components require adequate care when being handled.
Some individuals may show some allergic reaction to them and should not continue to
handle such products. The majority of people are unaffected by contact with these
materials.
All personnel should be protected during mixing and application from skin contact, spray
dust and eye splashing by use of protective equipment and clothing. Any accidental spillage
on the skin should be removed with soap and water or an industrial skin cleaner. Solvent
should not be used as this promotes penetration into the pores of the skin.
As these paints contain flammable solvents, they should not be applied near naked flames.
Attention is drawn to the need to observe the relevant statutory regulations where they
apply.
B4 TYPICAL USES
The main purpose of the paint systems covered by this Standard is to provide a decorative
appearance and impart corrosion protection to steelwork which is subjected to high
temperatures. These paints are intended for use on such structures as chimney stacks, heat
exchangers, hot process lines, kilns, incinerators, exhaust systems and steam pipes. Some
paint types may not be suitable for use in severe chemical environments.
B5 MIXING
Where the paint is a two-pack product, the two components should be mixed in the
manufacturer’s specified ratios and thoroughly blended before application. Only the
recommended thinners should be added to suit application requirements.
Heat resisting paints are special paints that are usually needed above 100°C. At elevated
temperatures, they are more resistant to expansion and contraction due to fluctuating
temperatures, the destructive attack of oxygen and shock from rain. Inorganic polymers
based on silicone or butyl titanate show the best resistance.
--```,,,```,,,,``,,,,,,`,``,```-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
B6 CURING
Most of these paints will cure satisfactorily at normal ambient temperature. However,
Type 5 (silicone aluminium) products require the application of heat at a specified rate to
achieve full curing. Failure to apply the required degree of heat within the specified time
may result in the paint not achieving its full corrosion resistance and decorative appearance.
COPYRIGHT
13 AS/NZS 3750.3:2008
B7 POT-LIFE
Of the six paint types covered by this Standard, only Types 3 and 4 are two-pack materials.
For these two paints the pot-life is normally in the region of 24 to 48 h. The manufacturer
should be consulted for details and the paint not used after the recommended pot-life has
expired, as an unsatisfactory coating may result even though the paint appears usable. Thus,
freshly mixed paint should not be added to paint that is nearing the end of its pot-life as this
may deleteriously affect the properties of the paint.
B8 TYPICAL FILM THICKNESS

Dry film thickness will vary according to product type and manufacturer but the following
are indicative of the available products:
Type 1: 35 to 50 µm
--```,,,```,,,,``,,,,,,`,``,```-`-`,,`,,`,`,,`---
Higher thicknesses should be avoided to prevent cracking at the operating temperatures.
B9 TYPICAL DRYING TIME

Drying time will vary considerably according to the product type and the manufacturer;
however, the following are indicative drying times:
Surface dry time Hard dry time Minimum

Type recoat time
h h h
1 1 16 2 (spray)
16 (brush)
2 2 8 16
3 1 16 24
4 12 Upon heating 24
5 2 Upon heating —
6 1 — 16
B10 STORAGE CONDITIONS

When stored under cover in unopened containers in industrial situations, the paints or
components should have a storage life of at least 12 months from date of manufacture.
Containers should preferably be stored out of direct sunlight away from heat and water.
Because the paints contain flammable solvents, they should not be stored near naked flame.
