PLASTIC against corrosion - GRP construction by ARTHUR KRÜGER

The material GRP (glass fiber reinforced plastic) is a composite material consisting of a matrix (resin) and a reinforcement (glass). This results in a high strength, an extremely high dimensional stability and low weight. This offers numerous structural and physical advantages wherever conventional building materials such as wood and steel reach their limits. Installations will be easier and possible in shorter terms due to the light weight property of GRP. We built maintenance-free, safe and sustainable solutions for your production sites.

PE customized solutions are your solution for:

Adhesion, bridging, freezing of bulk materials as well as corrosion of your construction!

Advantages:

• individuel, customized systems for every construction
• fast installation due to pre-casts parts
• downtime minimazation
• the one-part-pre-cast system fits perfect in your steel construction with less needs of attachments
• decrease of installation costs and less fitting edges minimize the risk of infiltration due to big-sized geometries of used PE material

Properties:

• increases flowability of all bulk materials
• high abrasion and impact resistance
• high chemical and corrosion resistance
• temperature operating range -200°C to +80°C
• hydrophobic
• also available with UV-stabilised and antistatic function
• FDA approved (Clean-Stat, Blue Line)

Sectors:

• transport and stock applications
• fertilizer industry
• food industry
• pharmaceutical industry
• coal power stations, mining operations, preparation plants for coal and minerals
• brickfields, gypsum and cement plants
• chemical and ceramic industry

Polyurethan (PUR) D44 is the most commonly used PUR material. As well as its excellent mechanical properties, it is also very resistant to wear and cracking and features high tensile strength.

Properties:

• Temperature operating range -30 °C to +80 °C
• High abrasion resistance
• Excellent tensile strength
• High elasticity
• Low sensitivity to temperature

Applications:

• Scraper bars for snowmobiles
• Scrapers of all kinds
• Cladding for bunkers and chutes
• Corner guards
• Profiles in ship building
• Coupling components
• Cable guides
• Impact elements

Sectors:

• Mechanical engineering
• Sheet metal processing industry
• Glass and ceramic industry
• Conveyor industry

When abrasive, aggressive bulk goods such as grain, glass, concrete or scrap metal are transported by scratching, scraping and grinding their way over screw-conveyor troughs, shakers, chutes, slides, through pipes and funnels or are moved in mixers, then huge problems are a foregone conclusion.

In future rely on the “thick skin” of Rhino Hyde®, a material that is up to 20 times more resistant to abrasion than steel and significantly extends the service life of your equipment systems. As a specialist firm for “engineering in plastics”, we, the company ARTHUR KRÜGER, have become specialised in the development of effective wear protection solutions.

Rhino Hyde® is available in different material types. The use of individual types depends on practical

requirements such as speed, fall height, temperature, moisture, and other factors.

Properties:

• High abrasion and impact resistance
• Light weight
• Antistatic
• Cut-resistant and cold formable
• Increases flowability of all bulk materials
• Chemical and corrosion resistance
• Temperature operation range –30°C to +120°C
• Friction coefficient 0.15 / 0.25 (0.08 wet)
• Hardness (Shore A) 85
• Melting point 200°C
• Sound-proofing up to 30 dB(A) compared with steel
• FDA-approved

Applications:

• all kind of scrapers
• Lining for bunkers, chutes, silos, bins, elevators, blenders
• Impact elements
• pipe bends, convey pipes
• chain-, screw- and vibrating conveyers

With Rhinox we complete our range of materials for corrosion protection in bulk material industry applications. Rhinox is a two-component moulded material made from highly abrasion-resistant grained ceramic and epoxy resin. It is used in all areas where Rhino Hyde is too stiff or where media are conveyed at high speed. In addition, Rhinox is successfully used in applications where highly corrosive and sharp-edged materials (such as in recycling) are conveyed under dry or wet conditions.

Rhinox is also a proven material for repairing slides, grooves, tubes, curved elements, pipe or tube magnets, pumps, ventilators, separators and curves in suction plants and features these outstanding product characteristics:

• it absorbs impacts
• it is chemical resistant
• temperature operation range –30° to +120°C

Available packages:

2 cans consisting of 2.25 kg (1x 1.5 kg of resin and 1x 0.75 kg of hardener). This quantity is sufficient for an area of approx. 100 x 15 cm with a coating thickness of approx. 8 cm.
