What causes corrosion & rust in fertilizer tanks?
|
|
The interior of mild steel fertilizer
tanks are a perfect environment to be attacked by many sources.
1 Salt & chemical deposits on the
interior of the tank. . . eat away at the steel.
2
Next, as humidity increases, more
rust occurs as water condenses on the metal.
|
3 Fertilizer has changed! Lack
of corrosion inhibitors in the fertilizer and longer, year-round
storage
are taking their toll on mild steel tanks.
4 Finally, chemical
(fertilizer) attack from high, low or even neutral pH fertilizer causes damage. |
Enviro-Coat provides rust and corrosion resistance. |
 |
Above liquid level,
as the product level raises and lowers, Enviro-Coat penetrates
rust and corrosion, removes moisture and provides longer term protection
of exposed steel.
At liquid level, Enviro-Coat provides a blanket to
stop evaporation, which causes major rust rings at the
air-liquid interface. It also helps eliminate product
evaporation & inventory loss.
Below liquid level, oxygen is eliminated. Enviro-Coat clings to the metal surface and resists
being washed away, providing additional protection from attack from
the product being stored. |
What is Enviro-Coat? |
 |
Enviro-Coat is a special blend of rust preventative
products suspended in a viscous liquid. The paraffinic nature of
the base product adds to rust resistance.
- Floats on the fertilizer & doesn't mix
with it
- Not a paint or fuel oil
- Can be reused season after season
- Can be used with many fertilizer & salt solutions. Excellent
results take place with 28% & 32% UAN, 10-34-0, 7-21-7, etc.
- Questionable products should be tested for compatibility.
- Outperforms other products on the
market in rust and corrosion performance tests.
Enviro-Coat is manufactured by an ISO 9001:2000 and DNV certified company.
You can be assured that the raw and finished product meet the highest
standards. |
"Enviro-Coat is an easy and inexpensive way to protect the inside of mild steel
tanks from rust & corrosion!"
