Syntho-Subsea™
Epoxy
By
NRI Neptune Research, Inc.
A two-part epoxy for patching, sealing and
coating pipelines.
Excellent adhesion on wet surfaces or under water.
Description
Syntho-Subsea™
Epoxy is ideal for patching, sealing and coating
a wide variety of materials including steel,
concrete, wood, aluminum and fiberglass. Syntho-Subsea™
is a two-component, Kevlar reinforced, epoxy mastic
coating for sealing and repairing leaks in
pipelines.
Typical Applications
- Seal leaks in SubSea
pipelines, joints and fittings.
- Fill in anomalies,
voids and surface imperfections on pipelines .
- Protective corrosion
coating in splash zone and tidal prone areas.
- Adhesive, protective
coating on wet surfaces or under water.
- Pipeline anomaly
reinforcement and remediation
Benefits
- Easy to use as an
adhesive or coating on both wet surfaces and under
water
- Excellent adhesion
- Resistant to high
pressures
- Resistant to high
and low temperature extremes
- Outstanding
resistance to petroleum products and chemicals

Preparation & Application
|
|
1.
|
Clean and roughen: A
clean surface, free of grease, loose rust and scale is
required. Remove any grease, oil and petroleum products
with a solvent wiping. After cleaning and degreasing,
remove any loose scale and roughen surface by mechanical
means. |
|
2. |
Mixing notes: Do not
mix Syntho-Subsea™ underwater. For underwater
applications mix on the boat then transfer to the repair
site. A pair of disposable gloves and a plastic putty
knife are supplied with each kit for mixing and
applying. |
|
3. |
Mix: Add all of the
curing agent, (part B) into the resin container (part
A), scrape sides and bottom of the container. Mix the
resin and curing agent together until a smooth, uniform
and streak free mixture is obtained. |
|
4. |
Application: Apply
with a putty knife, spatula or trowel. For underwater
applications, it is important to apply sufficient
pressure to displace the water on the surface. Spread
carefully while working the material into indentations
to avoid trapped air or water pockets, prior to building
up to the desired thickness. A coating thickness of 60
mils or more is achievable without running or sagging,
however for most applications a coating of approximately
30-60 mils is normally sufficient. |

Notes:
• It is important to feather the edges of Syntho-SubSea
for a water tight seal.
• If multiple coats are to be used, roughen the surface
in-between coats.
