ALKA-918
Novolac Wastewater Structural Lining System
High-performance chemical-resistant lining system designed for wastewater, sewerage and aggressive industrial containment environments.
Heavy-Duty Chemical & Wastewater Protection
ALKA-918 is a high-performance novolac chemical-resistant lining system engineered for concrete and steel assets exposed to aggressive wastewater, corrosive chemicals and immersion conditions.
The system combines an ALKA-105 primer/consolidation coat with AlkaTankline 100 or Alka-Acid 98 novolac/acid-resistant lining to create a high-build protective barrier against chemical attack and corrosion.
Designed for demanding infrastructure and industrial environments, ALKA-918 provides significantly higher chemical resistance than standard epoxy systems where exposure to wastewater, hydrogen sulfide (H₂S), sulfuric acid formation and aggressive process chemicals is expected.
Key Benefits
- High chemical resistance compared with standard epoxy systems
- Designed for aggressive wastewater environments
- Suitable for H₂S and sulfuric acid exposure when correctly specified
- High-build protective lining system
- Excellent protection against corrosion and chemical attack
- Suitable for both concrete and steel substrates
- Suitable for continuous immersion applications when correctly specified
- Protects infrastructure from wastewater-related degradation
- Suitable for demanding civil and industrial assets
- Project-specific build can be selected according to chemical exposure
SYSTEM BUILD-UP
ALKA-918 is a high-performance protective lining system applied over correctly prepared concrete or steel substrates.
For concrete, the system typically consists of an ALKA-105 primer/consolidation coat, followed by AlkaTankline 100 or Alka-Acid 98 as the high-build novolac/acid-resistant protective lining.
Surface preparation and final lining thickness should be selected according to the substrate condition, chemical concentration, operating temperature and immersion conditions.
Typical System DFT: 500–1,500+ microns
