SigmaShield 880

SigmaShield 880 is a two component high build polyamine adduct cured epoxy coating.

Main Characteristics

• Primarily designed for use in offshore splash zone maintenance
• Outstanding sea water resistance
• Excellent corrosion resistance
• Good abrasion resistance
• Continues to cure when immersed in water
• Long-term protection in a single-coat application
• Resistant to well designed cathodic protection
• Suitable for application on exterior of buried pipes
• Suitable on wet blast or ultra high pressure water (UHPWW) cleaned substrates (damp or dry)

Marine Use

Sigmashield 880 is an abrasion-resistant, surface-tolerant, multipurpose epoxy for severe environments. Engineered and formulated to resist corrosion in a wide range of industries and applications. It provides cost savings by reducing the time and expense associated with surface preparation as well as providing greater application efficiency and enhanced finish quality. As PPG Sigmashield 880 can be rapidly immersed and continues to cure after seawater immersion, it is particularly suited for structures exposed to tidal movement and surges, and for offshore splash zones such as those encountered in offshore power projects. The benefits of two coats - in a single coat! As a fast-drying, single-coat system, the PPG SIGMASHIELD 880 coating speeds up the coating process to minimize downtime. Application is simplified by the coating's high surface tolerance (suitable for damp- or wet-blast clean substrates), extended recoat window and the high film thickness that is achieved in one coat. The PPG Sigmashield 880 coating's superior resistance to abrasion, impact, corrosion and seawater prolongs service life and protects assets in some of the world's most severe environments. Available in off-white, yellow and black (other colours available upon request) all achieving a gloss finish.
