A method and apparatus for electrostatically spraying a plural component fast set polymer is disclosed. The system comprises a spray gun and at least two hoses connected to the head of the spray gun. The system also includes a proportioner connected to an end of the at least two hoses and a high voltage generator electrically and pneumatically in communication with the spray gun. The electrostatic spray system will allow for a fast set polymer to be imparted with electrical charge after mixing of a first and second component in a spray head thereof prior to expulsion via a nozzle to a grounded target that is being coated with the electrostatic spray coating.

Electrostatic fast-set sprayable polymer system and process

A method for applying a liner to a pipe is disclosed. The methodology includes inserting an apparatus within the pipe and moving the apparatus at a predetermined speed through the pipe. The method sprays a material from a spray head secured to the apparatus. The methodology also includes an oscillation system wherein the spray head assembly will move relative to the base assembly thus creating an over lapping pattern for the spray coating being applied to the interior surface of the pipeline. This oscillation system will allow for a more uniform coating to be applied.

Method of spray a liner on the inside surface of a pipe

A method and apparatus for applying a liner to a pipe is disclosed. The apparatus includes a base assembly having a plurality of guide rails and a shuttle plate attached thereto. The apparatus also includes a motor module attached to an end of the base assembly. An extension arm is connected to a top surface of the shuttle plate. The extension arm has a spray head assembly attached at an opposite end thereof. The extension arm and spray head assembly will move relative to the base assembly of the apparatus. A fast cure coating will be applied via the spray head assembly to the interior surface of a pipe being rehabilitated. The spray head assembly will have an air blow off mechanism therein thus allowing for the tip of the spray head assembly to stay relatively clog free during the fast cure coating operation of the apparatus. The methodology also includes an oscillation system wherein the spray head assembly will move relative to the base assembly thus creating an over lapping pattern for the spray coating being applied to the interior surface of the pipeline. This oscillation system will allow for a more uniform coating to be applied.

Sprayed in place pipe lining apparatus and method thereof

This invention relates to the process of preparation and application of a plural component, fast cure phenolic/polyurea elastomer coating co-polymer system. The disclosed coating system is prepared from the reaction of an isocyanate component and an amine terminated resin blend component. Each of the two components may individually or both contain a phenolic resin based product as part of the active hydrogen donation for the reaction with the isocyanate. These phenolic/polyurea co-polymers are characterized as having significantly improved chemical resistance and lower moisture vapor transmission through the coating system over conventional polyurea elastomer coating systems, thus making the coatings suitable for highly corrosive environments.
