Using Friction Modifiers for Epoxy-Urethane Compositions

The possibility of modifying compositions based on epoxy-urethane oligomer and epoxy resin intended to protect steel pipelines from aggressive environments is studied. Using metal stearates and other friction modifiers, it is possible to reduce the volumetric wear of the coating material by almost half. The features of the effect of these fillers on the phase structure and physical and mechanical properties of the materials under consideration, as well as the degree of stability of the main characteristics of the developed coatings in a number of chemically aggressive environments is established.
