Heavy-Duty Underwater Epoxy for Extreme Environments

ZDS-2186 is an advanced underwater-curing epoxy coating engineered for the most challenging marine, offshore, and infrastructure environments. With a light yellow appearance and a viscosity in the range of 3000-4500 cps, this epoxy sets the benchmark for durability and resilience in wet and highly humid conditions—capable of curing fully underwater and even at sub-zero temperatures. ZDS-2186 offers excellent corrosion resistance, protecting steel and concrete structures against the harshest elements found in marine and industrial environments, such as high humidity and exposure to acids and alkalis. Unlike conventional epoxies, it prevents surface whitening during curing, even at 100% humidity, ensuring a consistent, reliable finish for long-term structural protection.

Applications include: repair and coating of underwater pipelines, ship hulls, offshore oil & gas structures, water treatment facilities, power utilities, and civil engineering structures exposed to persistent moisture and corrosion threats. This system self-cures underwater, demonstrating robust adhesion and mechanical integrity where traditional coatings fail. Maintenance teams and engineering contractors benefit from minimized downtime and extended asset lifespans, thanks to its long-term corrosion protection and versatility across temperature extremes.

  • Underwater application and curing
  • Prevention of whitening with 100% humidity
  • Suitable for low-temperature curing
  • Excellent long-term corrosion resistance
  • Outstanding performance in marine and industrial sectors

ZDS-2186 delivers a heavy-duty solution backed by the reliability of professional-grade epoxy chemistry, ensuring peak structural protection in environments where failure is not an option.

💡 Use Cases
Underwater curing, Long-term corrosion protection, No whitening even at high humidity, Cures at low/sub-zero temperatures, Excellent chemical resistance
Ensure all surfaces are free of loose debris and contaminants. For underwater applications, mix components as directed, then apply immediately to the target surface using a spatula or suitable brush. Press firmly to ensure proper wetting and adhesion, especially in wet or submerged environments. Allow sufficient time for curing, avoiding disturbance during the setting period. For best performance, follow specific manufacturer instructions regarding thickness and cure times relative to water temperature.
  • Marine and Shipping Structures
  • Offshore Oil & Gas Platforms
  • Water & Wastewater Treatment Facilities
  • Infrastructure and Civil Engineering
  • Power and Utility Environments exposed to moisture
Store in a cool, dry place. Keep containers tightly sealed. Shelf life up to 12 months if unopened and stored properly.

Can ZDS-2186 cure underwater?
