Our products feature ultimate corrosion protection against natural influences and long-term UV-stability for external coating of tanks and steel constructions. As internal coatings for special tanks and process vessels, they perform high-grade resistance properties at elevated opera-ting temperatures.Our high-performance coatings achieve the complex requi-rements in the range of oil and gas to their full extent. The demands for adequate corrosion protection in this field of application require excellent chemical resistance at high operating temperatures combined with extreme pressure resistance. One of our premium products was tested extensively by the research institutes of Saudi Aramco, the biggest oil company worldwide. Our coating is approved for Saudi Aramco-Standards APCS-2i, APCS-28 and APCS-117. Various internal coating applications for newly built and renewed tanks in Saudi Aramco oil and gas refineries are primarily conducted with our approved product.Particular parts of our product range are coating systems with electrostatic dissipation capabilities which we designed for the storage of highly flammable substances. When oxygen is present during electrostatic charging, explosive reactions could occur in the vapor phase, the upper area of the tank. By the addition of nano-carbon fibers, conductive chains are for-med in the coating. These facilitate the dissipation of electric charging and prevent dangerous explosive reactions of the storage fluids. By integration of special particles into the ceramic-filled epoxy resin coatings, isolating properties are attained. These specific coating systems are especially qualified outstandingly for tanks and pipelines with exceeding temperature loads. Furthermore, they can effectuate the reduction of nuclear radiation (gamma rays) substantially. Through several years of intensive research, we have developed special internal coating systems for storage tanks of crude oil and all kinds of hydrocarbons, which provide a steady long-term protection against biocorrosion induced by SRB bacteria. These coating products prevent fatal pitting corrosion effec-tively. The unique mode of operation has been registered for international patent. For more information, please refer to the topic “Biocorrosion”. 1) Condensate-stripper, gas refinery, internal coating 3) Pipeline, internal coating 4) Underground fuel tanks, internal coating 2) Storage tanks for transformer-oil, internal and external coating3) Storage tank for diverse hydrocarbons, internal coatingYou place high requirements – We provide ultimate solutions1) Crude oil storage tanks, internal coating 2) Refinery process vessel, internal coating5) Degassing tank, internal coating Biocorrosion092) Coating with integrated biocideAfter a month-long test the coating was removed.

However, a major part of all corrosion damages occur under full exclusion of oxygen, for instance in the bottom area of filled storage tanks or in pipeline systems. Mainly responsible for the anaerobe corrosion are sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB). These microorganisms accelerate corrosion of steel in crude oil tanks and other technical installations, which come in contact with water and organic materials. Such surfaces have to be cleaned continuously; otherwise, gel-like biofilms form due to the rapid propagation of SRB bacteria. This process causes biofouling with a strong smell and slime formation which could be a precursor of biocorrosion. Evidentially anaerobe biocorrosion causes a 10-times higher oxidation rate in comparison to atmospheric corrosion. Through several years of intensive research in corporation with an independent institute, Ceramic Polymer GmbH has develo-ped high resistant internal coatings for biogas plants and storage tanks for crude oil and all kinds of hydrocarbons. The unique functionality of these coating systems provides a long-term protection against SRB-induced biocorrosion. Special biocide crystals are chemically integrated into the polymer matrix. By the tight encapsulation of the biocide the coating material is physiologically harmless during application procedure and also after curing. The SRB settle down primarily as tubercle-shaped colonies in niches with less circulation. They find optimum conditions in lower areas of filled oil tanks, for instance in cracks and pores of the coating.Sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) produce for the preservation of their O2-independent metabolism toxic hydrogen sulfide (H2S). The biocorrosion is caused by the enzyme hydrogenase, which is excreted by the SRB. This enzyme dismantles the pro-Unique coating system against anaerobe biocorrosion induced by SRB bacteria According to Patent-No. WO 2011/000339 A2tecting hydrogen film on the steel surface of the tank. Simultaneously, several redox reactions occur. Thus iron(II)sulfide is ge-nerated, which builds a black crust around the rust tubercles. By further physical-chemical reactions even high quality steel is destroyed. Fatal and rapidly advancing pitting corro-sion is the result. Even concrete substrates are extremely damaged by the SRB-produced hydrogen sulfide, which cause heavy concrete erosions. The novel anti-SRB internal coatings of Ceramic Polymer GmbH prevent anaerobe biocorrosion from the beginning. The first population of SRB and the consequential building of rust tubercles in emerged mi-cro cracks are provably avoided. The de-pot effect of the biocide crystals causes a long-lasting crack protection against SRB settlement. For detailed explanations regarding the mechanism of anaerobe biocorrosion, please refer to our topic „Research and Development“. Specific biocides in nano-crystalline shapeare integrated by a patent pending method in a ceramic-filled polymer matrix.Special functionalityDue to temperature gradients or mechanical impact, cracks in the range of nano- or micrometers occur in every coa-ting during operation time. The SRB bacteria settle down primarily in those cracks, which appear as protective niches with low circulation. As soon as micro cracks occur in the coating, the special biocide crystals burst and unfold their effect within the whole crack. The SRB are killed before they can settle. The existing depot effect causes a long-lasting biocidal corrosion protection without localized erosion. No negative impacts occur to the necessary bacterial processes in the biogas fermenter, because the biocidal effects are restricted locally to the micro cracks in the coating.Safe applicationDuring the application procedure and also after the curing, the biocidal active component remains at first tightly en-capsulated in the polymer matrix, so that the coated surface is not antiseptically active and therefore physiologically harmless. The kind of biocide employed is virtually harmless for humans. The application of these effective coating systems can easily be conducted by airless spraying method or roll and rake.Constant durabilityExtensive test series by our independent research partner have proven clearly that biocorrosion induced by SRB bac-teria can be largely prevented by using our special coating products. Therefore, effective and targeted protection of concrete and steel substrates for biogas plants and tanks for crude oil and hydrocarbons is permanently achieved.Biogas1 1Highest efficiency for new building and renewal of biogas plants* ***** *Pictures: MT-Energie, Germany Picture: Energie-Anlagen Röring, Germany *Pictures: MT-Energie, Germany Even after a short operating time, extreme damage to concrete and steel can occur due to the extensive chemical attack of the highly corrosive biomass and biogas. Furthermore, the use of herbal and animal waste material such as pomace, slaughterhouse waste, slop, fat and oil increases the corrosiveness of the substance. Conventional coating systems for biogas plants provide inadequate corrosion protection. Solvent-based coating products cause, for instance, osmotic blistering and the so-called "washed out concrete" is induced by insufficient acid resistance. Concrete erosions of 1 to 2 cm and extreme corrosion damages on all steel components are measured per year. Our specific and targeted coating products feature durable value preservation for fermenters, hygienisation tanks and all kinds of component parts of biogas plants. These systems are applied directly onto steel and even concrete substrates without the previous use of a primer. Through several years of intensive research in corporation with an independent institute, we have developed special internal coating systems for biogas plants, which provide a steady long-term protection against biocorrosion induced by SRB-bacteria. The unique mode of operation has been registered for international patent. For more information, please refer to the topic “Biocorrosion”. The combination of specific fillers and reactive hardener compositions enables the use of our winter product series during dry winter seasons with ambient temperatures down to -10°C. These special coating systems are still sprayable even under these conditions and they cure within 2-3 days completely. After 7 days of curing, the coated surface is generally chemical resistant, thus largely preventing temperature-dependent down times.Even with this special feature, the physical properties of our high-performance products remain intact. Besides excel-lent chemical resistance against highly corrosive liquids and gases at elevated temperatures, our solvent-free “winter systems” provide an outstanding adhesion on steel and concrete substrates. Due to their direct application without use of a primer, new buildings and renewals of biogas plants can be conducted efficiently during the winter season. An absolutely innovative product line on the international market Applications at winterly temperatures down to minus 10°C***Picture: Metallbau Blechinger, GermanyPicture: SLP Beschichtungs GmbH, Germany13Drinking Water & Foodstuff• German standard (KTW) - drinking water approval• DVGW-W270, growth of microorganisms (biofilm)• German standards - foodstuff approval, microbiological and physical-chemical analyses• German standard (KSW) - swimming water approval (open air, indoor, warm whirl-pool)• Drinking water installations on- and offshore - Folkehelse, Norwegian Institute of Public Health, Oslo Tests & Certificates of independent institutesWe invest constantly in specific test series to provide high quality, solvent-free coa-tings and guarantee the safety for drinking water and food applications. The necessa-ry criteria of the German Federal Health Office are fulfilled in different groups. Thus, our products are usable in scope of drinking water (German standard KTW). They show for instance hardly verifiable chlorine absorption or release of substan-ces, which would promote microbiological growth and impair the drinking water. In other, month-long test series according to DVGW-W270, no abnormally microbial slime formation occurred on the coated surface. Hence, our certified products are applicable as internal coating for drinking water tanks and pipework, also in micro-biological regards. Our coating systems display safety for drinking water even at high operating temperatures up to 85°C, which is attested by extensive analysis of an independent institute.Safe coating systems feature essential certitude4) Sand filter vessels for drinking water, internal and external coating 5) Drinking water tank, internal and external coating 6) Fish farm filter, external coating 1) Water tower “Aquaglobe”, internal coating 2) Sand filter vessels for drinking water, internal and external coating3) Swimming pool filters, internal coating For foodstuffs of neutral, acidic and alcoholic kind, our coating systems are continuously tested and approved in accordance with physical-chemical and microbiological assessments. None impermissible emissions of substances from the coating; smell, taste and quality of the storage fluids (hydrous, light and concentrated alcohol as well as acidic liquids) are not affected. The coating for different kinds of pools has to meet the guidelines for swimming and bathing pool water (German standard KSW). Our product systems are tested on migration behavior to chlorine for cold and warm pool water as well as very warm whirl pool water up to 40°C. Hardly verifiable chlorine absorption or release of oxidable substances occurred. Therefore, the consistency of the swimming pool water is not impaired. Due to the low viscosity and the fast curing times, our coating material is preferentially used for the restoration of corroded pipework systems. The application according to the patented Promotec-system is achieved by a pressure assisted vacuum process.2) Restoration of pipework by the Promotec-system; corroded, cleaned and coated pipes1) Filters for drinking water, internal and external coating3) Anaconda basin at a German zoo4) Fish pond for exotic fishes 5) Coated swimming pool1 5Maritime TechniquesExtensive product range for maritime individualityTests & Certificates of independent institutesCoatings, which are being used for offshore applications have to meet the highest demands. The constantly moist and salt-laden air combined with intensive UV radiation is highly corrosive. Our unconditionally seawater-resistant coating systems enduringly prevent all types of maritime facilities from corrosion and abrasion.Within the intertidal zone and splash zone, the oxygen content of the sea water is increased due to currents and waves. Hence, the corrosion process is enormously accelerated by constantly moving water. In addition, severe mechanical abrasion results from flowing water. For this field of application we provide ideal protection. For new buildings and renewals of ship bodies, high impact resistance is required. The sheer rails on the sides are exposed to hea-vy loads during landing processes. Rudder blades show oftentimes deep cavitation erosions. Deck coatings have to be weather-proof, skid-proof and usually chemical resistant. The Ceramic Polymer coating products fulfill these requirements and provide long-lasting impact and abrasion resistance. Furthermore, our coatings are excellently applicable as internal coatings for different kinds of tanks on the ships. Our portfolio contains ideal protective systems for waste water tanks and freshwater tanks as well as pool water tanks and ballast water tanks. Thus we make a considerable contribution to effective value preservation within the whole range of maritime techniques.• ISO 20340 – Performance requirements for protective paint systems for offshore and related structures• Germanischer Lloyd approval for ballast water tanks• 10.000 hours salt spray test• cathodic disbondment test at 1,5 V (30 + 60 + 90 days at 60°C)• autoclave test with explosive decompression (natural gas, 100 bar, 100°C)• German standards (KTW) - drinking water approval• DVGW-W270, growth of microorganisms (biofilm)• German standards - foodstuff approval, microbiological and physical-chemical analyses• German standards (KSW) - swimming water approval (open air, indoor, warm whirl-pool)• Drinking water installations on- and offshore - Folkehelse, Norwegian Institute of Public Health, Oslo4) Harbour structure, external coating 5) Crude oil tanks and separators on offshore platform, internal and external coating6) Single buoy mooring system, external coating1) Segment of offshore wind energy plant, external coating2) Lock gate, external coating 3) Sheer rails on ship body, external coating Picture: Scandlines, Germany5) Sheet piles of man-made island, external coating4) Ballast water tank, internal coating1) Crude oil tanks and separators on offshore platform, internal and external coating2) Lock gate, external coating3) Steel construction of singlebuoy mooring system, external coating6) Rudder, rear and sheer rails, external coating Picture: Scandlines, Germany1 7Our highest performance coatings - outstanding chemical resistanceWe at Ceramic Polymer GmbH are constantly working on new and further developments of our high quality coating products in order to provide an extended and versatile product range. Recently, in cooperation with an independent research institute, we generated novel protective systems which feature high-grade resistance against aggressive chemicals at elevated opera-ting temperatures. Our innovative, solvent-free 2-component coatings with silanized high-tech micro and nano particle filling are based on the newest multifunctional and hybrid epoxy novolac resins. These coating systems are specifically devised for extremely aggres-sive environments. By the combination of selected, highly functional fillers and different resin systems, we achieve the outstanding chemical re-sistance. We use organo-ceramic nonmetallic ingredients. These porous fillers enable the tight anchoring of the resin, soaking into all porosities of the particles, thus enhancing the inner texture. The employed pure organic fillers are optimally compatible with the organic resins. PTFE-additives increase the resistance properties and facilitate the tight cross linking of the polymer chains. Furthermore, we utilize specific amino acid polymer molecules, which show an affine behavior towards metal. They adhere strongly to any metal, inducing a perfect adhesion by dissolving residual oxidesIn furthering our product developments, we have generated premium coatings for stainless steel substrates. The most remarkable properties of these coatings are their superior chemical resistance and phenomenal adhesion strength. These innovative coating systems are intended for special applications with highest requirements in which stainless steel is in-sufficient on its own. Hence, Ceramic Polymer GmbH provides coatings with considerable capabilities which differentiate themselves clearly from other available products on the market. For the maximum protection – our premium performance coatings for stainless steel substrates• extreme adhesion > 30 N/mm²• excellent chemical resistance against hot acids and alkaline solutions• excellent chemical resistance against hot corrosive gases• simple and solvent-free application by airless spraying methods• direct application without previous use of a primer The new Ceramic Polymer coating products provide outstanding properties:For aggressive chemicals a safe secondary barrier is essential. Tanks and basins with hazardous substances, no matter if they are outdoors or within a storage building, need a chemical resistant leakage protection. Different substrates such as steel and concrete can be complemented with our systems to provide ultimate environmental protection. Our coating products improve even high quality drip pans of stainless steel to get a durably effective protection against chemicals.We draw the line for chemicals – Secondary Containment1) Storage tanks for various acids, internal coating 2) Tanks for process water, internal coating3) Storage tanks for hot glycols, internal coating1) Exit flues of chemical plant, internal coating 2) Storage tanks of hot fatty acids, internal coating3) Tanks for aggressive bio fuels, internal and external coating4) Bottom of double-walled tank for chemical residue mix, internal coating5) Secondary containment field for storage tanks of phosphoric acids, external coating6) Double-walled tanks for ethanol, internal coating and concrete tank pit, external coatingChemicals1 9Concrete substrates also need a resistant coating for a trouble-free operation. The belief that concrete could permanently withstand aggressive chemical attacks or heavy weather conditions without protection is a false conclusion. As a matter of fact, air pollution and resulting acid rain induces by contained sulfur dioxide the corrosion of concrete. By enduring contact with chemicals or aggressive substances, concrete is destroyed in different ways. The sulfate attack causes expansion effects. The sulfuric acid attack effectuates extreme concrete erosions. Also anaerobe microorganisms (sulfate reducing bacteria - SRB) provoke fatal concrete erosions by the excretion of hydrogen sulfide. Fluids and gases, which ingress into the porosities of the concrete, can cause corrosion on steel reinforcements. The Ceramic Polymer protective coatings provide excellent resistance against va-rious chemicals and gases, steady acid resistance, high abrasion resistance and drinking water approvals for versatile use relating to concrete protection. For more information regarding SRB-induced biocorrosion and our new long-term pro-tection system, please refer to the topic “Biocorrosion”. Our coatings are applied directly onto clean and blasted concrete without previ-ous use of a primer. Due to the low visco-sity of the coating products, all porosities are easily filled in and an outstanding ad-hesion is thereby achieved. The application is conducted by airless spraying method or simply by roll and rake. • waste water systems• septic tanks• sewage plants• drip pans• pipework• cisterns• rain retention basins • oil and petrol separators• biogas plants• secondary containment applicationsSimple and direct – perfect functionality with a strong hold Secondary Containment – protecting nature and environmentCeramic Polymer GmbH sets another focus on the protection of nature and the environment.

Very complex reactions occur on the metal sur-face. In our topic “Biocorrosion” you can get an overview, but here we would like to explain the process in detail. First phase of biocorrosion: First population by oxygen tolerating SRBThe first population takes place by oxygen tolerating SRB. This occurs in oxygen-containing areas, but at a moderate speed (“hibernation”). These oxygen-tolerating SRB proliferate best in areas without convection. They find the niches with less circu-lation in lower areas of oil tanks and in cracks and pores of the coating. Thus, every area of storage tanks and even pipelines can be populated. These oxygen-tolerating SRB produce enzy-mes such as catalase and superoxide dismutase which form an aggravated lack of oxygen.Second phase of biocorrosion: Formation of tubercles and resulting destruction of iron In these aggravated anaerobe areas, sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) grow extremely fast and produce for the preservation of their O2-independent metabolism hydrogen sulfide (H2S). The SRB settle down primarily as tubercle-shaped colonies. Next, the physical-chemical conditions near the ferrous surface of the tank alter. Whereby the enzyme hydrogenase, which is produced by SRB, the resulting iron(II)sulfide (FeS) and the hy-drogen film caused by autoprotolyses of water are important.The enzyme hydrogenase dismantles the protecting hydrogen film and releases the hydrogen as an electron donor. Hence, the above discribed redox reaction begins, where mainly iron is oxidized to iron-2+ and sulfate is reduced to sulfide. The iron-2+ions are intercepted by sulfide-ions to iron(II)sulfides and build a black crust around the rust tubercles. The emerged iron(II)sulfide turns into a cathode and the gal-vanic cell iron / iron sulfide develops (conversion of chemical into electric energy). The hydrogen could reduce the electric potential of this cell, but the enzyme hydrogenase impedes also this protective mechanism and regenerates the layer of iron(II)sulfide constantly. Evidentially anaerobe biocorrosion causes a 10-times higher oxidation rate in comparison to atmospheric corrosion. Research and Development3 1An important part of our company philosophy is the new development of coating products for special demands. Through extensive and continuous research work, we are constantly improving the quality and the range of our pro-duct portfolio. Therefore we also provide adequate coating solutions for specific niche markets. One of our research projects has been successfully completed. As single manufacturer, Ceramic Polymer features internal coa-tings for biogas plants and storage tanks for crude oil and all kinds of hydrocarbons against anaerobe biocorrosion induced by SRB bacteria. The specific functionality of this product line is internationally registered for patent. Thus, fatal pitting corrosion is effectively and long-lasting avoided. According to experts 20% of all costs caused by corrosion are based on microbial destruction of the material. It is high time to employ our innovative coating product effectively in this scope. Why does the unique Ceramic Polymer coating systems provide a long-term protection against SRB- induced biocorrosion?The description of the biocorrosion processes shows that it is primarily important to avoid the first population of oxy-gen tolerant SRB bacteria to prevent building of rust tubercles and resulting biocorrosion. The internationally patent pending functionality of integrated special biocide crystals into the ceramic polymer matrix destroys the SRB bacteria before they can settle in micro cracks which have occurred. Extensive test series by an independent institute have pro-ven clearly that most thorough prevention of SRB-induced biocorrosion is provided by using our special products.Improvement through innovationsOur innovative internal coatings provide long-term protection against biocorrosion induced by SRB bacteria. According to Patent-No. WO 2011/000339 A2Picture: Effect of our tank lining product. As soon as micro cracks occur in the coating, the special biocide crystals burst and unfold their effect within the whole crack. The SRB are killed before their settlement. The existing depot effect causes a long-lasting biocidal corrosion protection without localized erosion.Conceptions and intentions… …which we put into practiceWe give you the opportunity to get a short insight into our development activities. Within these fields we can demonstrate proven precise research methodologies. • Long-term protection against aerobe biocorrosion. • Bacteria are killed through disinfection of contact areas. By touching specific coated surfaces biocides are activated to prevent germ formation. • A specific coating for the reduction of gamma rays by using new types of fillers with reflection and absorption properties. • Development of internal coatings for highest pressure resistance of more than 500 bar for special applications.We would gladly keep you informed of the results of our tests, as well as facts about new and further developments of our innovative coating systems.Picture: Simple illustration of the processes in a rust tubercle.
