Muki Z 2001

Muki Z 2001 is a two-pack, modified low zinc ethyl silicate shopprimer designed for use as a preconstruction primer on steel surfaces. It protects steel during transport, storage and production. It has very good water resistance, excellent abrasion resistance and solvent resistance within a pH range of 6-10. Muki Z 2001 is applied by airless or conventional spray to blast cleaned steel surfaces and provides corrosion protection during normal storage and fabrication.

Technical Data

Muki Z 2001

Product description
Muki Z 2001 is a two-pack, modified low zinc ethyl silicate shopprimer. Designed to utilize optimum productivity in
connection with advanced welding technology (MIG/ MAG/G-FCAW) giving reduced weld defects/backburning. Muki Z
2001 is good in corrosion protection of steel during normal storage and fabrication, and reduces exposure to fumes
during welding and cutting compared with medium to high zinc shopprimers.

Recommended use
To be used as a preconstruction primer on blast-cleaned steel surfaces in automatic shop-priming plants to protect steel
during transport, storage and production.

For application on steel for water ballast tanks in accordance with PSPC (IMO Res. MSC 82/W), cleanliness must be:
Dust - Min. rating 1, sizes 3,4,5 (ISO 8502-3:1993) and soluble salt - Maximum 50 mg/m² (ISO 8502-6 and- 9:1998).

Film thickness and spreading rate


Minimum Maximum
Film thickness, dry (µm) 15 20
Film thickness, wet (µm) 55 70
Theoretical spreading rate (m²/l) 18,7 14
Comments
Dry film thickness measured on a smooth test panel.

Abrasion resistance Excellent
Solvent resistance Excellent
Chemical resistance Excellent within pH range 6-10.
Flexibility Limited
*Measured according to ISO 3233:1998 (E)

Surface preparation
All surfaces should be clean, dry and free from contamination. The surface should be assessed and treated in
accordance with ISO 8504.

Bare steel
Cleanliness: Blast cleaning to Sa 2½ (ISO 8501-1:2007). Roughness: using abrasives suitable to achieve grade Fine to
Medium S/G (30-85 µm, Ry5) (ISO 8503-2)

Other surfaces
The coating may be used on other substrates. Please contact your local Jotun office for more information.

Condition during application


The temperature of the substrate should be minimum at least 3°C above the dew point of the air, temperature and
relative humidity measured in the vicinity of the substrate. Recommended steel temperature: 30-40°C.

Application methods
Spray Use airless spray or conventional spray
Brush Recommended for touch-up purposes.

Application data
Mixing ratio (volume) 10:6,75

Mixing 10 parts by volume Comp. A (Silicate solution) to be thoroughly mixed with 6,75
parts by volume Muki Z 2001, Comp. B (Zinc paste).
Pot life (23°C) 24 hours. (Reduced at higher temperatures).

Thinner/Cleaner Jotun Thinner No. 4/25


(No. 4 - Fast Evaporation) - (No. 25 - Slow evaporation).
Guiding data airless spray
Pressure at nozzle 5 - 7 MPa (50 - 70 kp/cm², 700 - 900 psi).
Nozzle tip 0.38 - 0.58 mm (0.015 - 0.023").
Spray angle 40 - 95º

Note * Proper routines for cleaning and maintenance of the priming unit are
necessary to achieve high productivity and uniform quality. Before start of work
and after finishing with Muki Z 2001 it is recommended to circulate Jotun Thinner
No. 4 or No. 25 through the entire spraying equipment for some minutes. During
application it is necessary to use a mechanical stirrer.

* The Comp. B (Zinc paste) must be stirred continuously while the Comp.
A (Silicate solution) is added.

Drying time
Drying times are generally related to air circulation, temperature, film thickness and number of coats, and will be
affected correspondingly. The figures given in the table are typical with:
* Good ventilation (Outdoor exposure or free circulation of air)
* Typical film thickness
* One coat on top of inert substrate
* Relative humidity at 80 %

Substrate temperature 23°C 40°C


Surface dry 1-3 min 20-40 sec
Through dry 3-5 min 1-2 min
Cured 1 1d 1d
Dry to recoat, minimum 2 1d 1d
Dry to recoat, maximum 3

1. Curing time to be verified by MEK-test (ASTM D 4752-87).
1. Recommended data given for recoating with coatings normally specified on top of shopprimers.
2. The substrate should be free from any zinc salts and other contamination prior to application of the subsequent
coat.

The given data must be considered as guidelines only. The actual drying time/times before recoating may be shorter or
longer, depending on film thickness, ventilation, humidity, underlying paint system, requirement for early handling and
mechanical strength etc. A complete system can be described on a system sheet, where all parameters and special
conditions could be included.

Typical paint system


Muki Z 2001 1 x 15 - 20 µm (Dry Film Thickness - measured on a smooth test panel).

Undamaged shopprimer can be overcoated with a choice of systems based on epoxy, vinyl or chlorinated rubber
resins.

Other systems may be specified, depending on area of use

Storage
The product must be stored below 25°C and in accordance with national regulations. Storage conditions are to keep
the containers in a dry, cool, well ventilated space and away from source of heat and ignition. Containers must be kept
tightly closed.

Handling
SHELF LIFE: 6 months at room temperature for Comp. A. Handle with care. Stir well before Use. Continuous stirring
during application will prevent the heavy zinc pigment from settling.

Packing size
20 litre unit: 10 litres Comp. A (silicate solution) in a 10 litre container and 6.75 litres Muki Z 2001, Comp. B (Zinc paste)
in a 20 litre container.

Health and safety


Please observe the precautionary notices displayed on the container. Use under well ventilated conditions. Do not
breathe or inhale mist. Avoid skin contact. Spillage on the skin should immediately be removed with suitable cleanser,
soap and water. Eyes should be well flushed with water and medical attention sought immediately.
