7 Qualifications AWS C 2.16 Qualified Thermal Spray Operator for Zinc and Engineered Coatings SSPC C7 Certified Dry (Wet) Blast Operator Licensed and Approved Equipment Specialist & Applicator for the following: TSE-OK Ibix Polymer Thermal Spray & Blast Systems Thermion Twin Wire Arc Systems Alamo Polymer Thermal Spray System Our managers and applicators have extensive experience in Thermal Spray Industry, and are fully capable and qualified to meet or exceed all applicable codes and standards for projects throughout various industries. TSS provides QA/QC documentation for the application process and procedural standards for each project in strict adherence to all applicable code standards.

8 IBIX Grit Blast Equipment TSE-OK IBIX is an ecological and revolutionary system distinguished by its compact design and ease of mobility. It is best suited for special cleaning and maintenance work in various industries.

9 Manufactured from 100% Recycled Bottle Glass. The use of post-consumer glass directly benefits the environment by reducing landfill waste. The manufacturing process reduces the glass and strips the contaminants and waste by-products from the glass. The product is sized and screened to the exact specifications needed n for various Abrasive Blasting needs. Can be used for both Wet and Dry blasting applications. Bottle or Tri-Mix Glass is chemically known as Amorphous Silica. It has virtually no crystalline-silica silica which is commonly found in sand. Crystalline Silica is the leading cause of Silicosis.

10 Why Coatings Fail

11 Spartacus Thermal Spray Equipment SPARTACUS is a Thermal Spray hot powder coat system requiring No curing with No residual overspray which ensures an easily Repairable maintenance free system with Fast Turnarounds

12 PolyX Functionalized Polyolefin Alloys (PolyX ) Long term adhesion without need of a primer Excellent UV and salt spray resistance Contain only C, H, O Food/water contact approvals Low smoke / toxicity on burning Elastomeric / very flexible Ductile impact properties No cracking / chipping Temperature range -70 C to 70 C (100 C) Good chemical resistance Minimum recommended thickness -300 micron

13 What are Thermosets? Commonly referred to as Traditional Powder Coatings. The term thermoset refers to polymeric material that will not soften or melt after being cured. The resins that are used to make thermosetting powders are epoxy, polyester, and acrylic. There are five types of powder coating systems that are derived from these three general resins: epoxy, epoxypolyester, polyester-tgic, acrylic-urethane, and polyester-urethane. These types of polymers undergo a chemical crosslinking reaction when heated, resulting in a high molecular weight product. Cross-links are chemical bonds that link polymer chains together and give the material strength.

14 What are Thermoplastics? Commonly referred to as plastics. Melt on heating and re-solidify on cooling. Common plastics are polyethylene, polystyrene, polypropylene, nylon, PVC, etc. Used mostly for moulding into articles such as bottles, caps and components or by extrusion into packaging, carrier bags, pipes and fibres. Range of properties from flexible to rigid, high temperature or chemical resistance, toughness, electrical insulation, etc.
