Technical Information |
 |
| |
|
The Vortex Liner Material
used by Hudson Valley Coatings, comprises of
a Plural Component, Polyurethane/Polyurea
blended base component with a low viscosity,
non-temperature sensitive isocyante catalyst
formulation.
Vortex and Granitex materials meet the
guidelines set for USDA/FDA applications for
incidental food contact which is certified
by the manufacturer.
This unique, exclusive, cross linking
blend of materials results in an incredibly
durable surface coating of extremely high
impact resistance and durability normally
found in very expensive polyurea blends
normally 4 to 8 times the cost. High
chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and wearability lend to a long lasting,
industrial coating. |

FDA AND USDA APPROVED
FOR
INCIDENTAL FOOD CONTACT AND STORAGE
Vortex® meets regulatory standards set by
the Food and Drug Association and the United
States Dairy Association under Title 21 /
Section 175 (Indirect Floor and wall
coatings requirements for Polymeric
Coatings).
It is safe to use in with incidental food
contact on walls and floors for food
storage, lockers, freezers, refrigerators,
and other storage compartments for food.
Recommended for use in Restaurants,
Laboratories, and Manufacturing Facilities. |

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY |
 |
Vortex creates an
insulating blanket over virtually
any surface. |
 |
Save money on
energy bills as the temperature can
be maintained by sealing off the
leaks. |
 |
Less than 1%
transfer of heat and cold -
extremely low when compared to other
materials like brick
(98%) or metal (100%). |

CHEMICAL RESISTANCE
Ethyl Alcohol Resistance Immersion Test
Saturation of Vortex Flex and Vortex
Industrial samples into a solution of 12.5%
concentration of Ethyl Alcohol showed no
signs of degradation of the product its
elasticity or flexibility. The product was
found to have no effect even after a long
period of immersion. |

|
After a lapse of 1
hour: no effect |
|
After a lapse of 2 hours: no effect |
|
After a period of 3
days: no effect |
