TESTING REPORT

ON

INTERZONE 4954

Introduction

Due to market requirement of coating with antifungus properties used on the

sweating pipes in the PC market, IPM decided to come out a solution to fulfil this

requirement.

Referring to the success trail from IP Brazil by using Interthane 990 with 1% KT2037

antifungus biocide, IPM do the same to add in antifungus biocides to Interzone 954

for trial. Result is satisfactory both from us and customers.

To differentiate this product after modification of the formulation, a new banner

name has been given to this new product:

INTERZONE 4954

Beside the test report from IP Brazil, IPM provides this technical report which consist

of two parts as stated belows:

PART A : Laboratory trial QC performance

PART B : Site testing on antifungus performance

:

Interzone 4954 – Antifungal paint

Method:

• Run EAZ000 formulation and add KT2037 (1.00%).

• Check QC Tests & storage stability.

8) Storage Stability 2 months storage result shows this paint still within

specification except viscosity still maintain 6.3-6.4

poises and touch dry at 4.5 hours. Hard dry still

maintain as 18 hours.

Conclusion:

All the QC Test properties are within specification except for viscosity and drying time. The

lab sample size at 250ml may contribute to higher viscosity due to insufficient stirring power

compare to production. Longer touch dry result may not also represent production result as

we can see that hard dry still within specification.

Thus, further monitoring need to be conduct in production scale for final determination of

result.
