A Visco-Elastic System for Pipeline Corrosion Protection.

ATVE ViscoCoat is an effective pipeline corrosion protection coating designed for steel and compatibility with coatings such as PE, PP and FBE.  It is supplied in a roll form for an easy cold-applied application.

This specialized viscoelastic compound is formulated from non-crystalline, non-reactive stable materials for a permanent bond and for a long durable service. The polyethylene backing is reinforced to provide excellent mechanical strength.  ATVE ViscoCoat is suitable for above ground and buried pipelines and steel structures.

Viscoelastic Properties

The unique viscoelastic nature of the ATVE ViscoCoat allows cold-flow of the adhesive to fill-in the irregularities of the substrate and also provides self-healing capability of the coating system. The compound remains flexible, bonded and conformed to the pipe.  The ViscoCoat design forms an efficient barrier to water and oxygen for excellent corrosion protection.

Mechanical Properties

ATVE ViscoCoat is complemented by an ATVE Outerwrap tape that provides additional impact and indentation resistance and also facilitates the self-healing of small defects in the coating.
