Most industrial applications are dependent on save handling, processing and storage of hazardous chemicals. Epoxy- and vinyl-ester-novolac linings are state of the art to prevent severe corrosion on concrete and steel surfaces within plants, vessels or tanks and thus avoid any environmental impacts by leakages. As both systems contain volatile organic solvents, possible allergy triggers or harmful chemicals like styrene, the application process has an impact on the environment as well as on health and safety of applicators or workers.

Within this paper, we will show a new class of styrene- and solvent-free vinyl-ester-novolac-based systems suitable to build up self-leveling floorings, coatings, laminates or brick linings for different types of severe corrosion protection in different types of industry.
