What is Super Therm? Water-based acrylic coating made of specific ceramics and resins that prevent solar heat from loading on all external surfaces regardless of surface type: metal, concrete, asphalt, vinyl, plastic, wood, etc. Once applied,surface temperature will always be at an ambient or near ambient temperature level. What does Super Therm do? Proactively prevents solar heat gain on the surface of all external surfaces Shatters air conditioning cost in buildings of all surface types Minimize maintenance cost associated with contraction/expansion Makes surfaces safer and more resistant to flash fires Prevents moisture & water infiltration Reduce Sound waves Blocks Mold and Mildew growth
How does Super Therm work? Super Therm works by blocking solar radiation heat transfer from 3 radiation waves. Super Therm blocks 95% of all solar heat load. Ultraviolet (UV) is: 3% of total solar heat load Visual Light (VIS) is: 40% of total solar heat load Infrared (IR) is: 57% of total solar heat load Super Therm has a high thermal emmitance of.91. Emittance is the ability to throw off heat before it loads on the substrate. High reflectivity.
How do the ceramics work in Super Therm? Super Therm contains four unique ceramics that have little density ( ceramics used are 50 times lighter than paper) and cannot load solar radiation. 1 st ceramic reflects visible light (short wave) and does not absorb solar heat and reflects 92.2%. 2 nd ceramic reflects near-infrared rays. It repels and blocks heat entrance. 3 rd ceramic blocks 93.7% of far infrared long waves. 4 th ceramic makes dead air space and a vapor barrier and blocking thermal conduction.
Super Therm vs. Cool Roof & White Coatings and Traditional Insulation with R value. White coatings only reflect visual light ( Visual light is only 40% of the total solar heat load) and will only work when it is clean. Traditional R value insulation is reactive in controlling heat transfer, allowing 100% of the solar heat to load, which the end user pay for. In real world use, unavoidable air and moisture infiltration significantly reduces R value and performance. Super Therm is proactive, never allowing solar heat to load (blocks 95% of total solar heat load and moisture infiltration). Prevention is better than cure.

Georgia Tech Research Institute Study (GTRI): Super Therm Cool Roof Compared to a traditional Black Roof The only difference between the cool roof and the black roof is a thin 10-mil coating of Super Therm that has been applied to the cool roof. The chart illustrates that 1.2 MJ/m 2 of heat energy passed through the cool roof coated with Super Therm and 3.2 MJ/m 2 of heat energy passed through the black roof. The black roof let in 2.7 times more heat energy per square meter, as compared to the cool roof. With an ambient temperature of 86 F, the outdoor temperature is above the interior set-point temperature of a standard building. Therefore, the cool roof illustrates superior performance, as it allows a smaller amount of heat energy to pass through the roof system.

SUPER THERM The project was conducted at the Sunoco Chemical Neal Plant in Kenova, West Virginia, and one tank was coated with Rust Grip and Super Therm. The purpose of the project was to reduce the temperature inside the tank for the storage of polypropylene. Before coating the tank, Sunoco was forced to spray water on the tank all day for cooling to maintain safe temperature levels as surface temperatures exceeded 160 F during hot months. After coating with Super Therm, safe temperature levels were maintained at ambient temperature (84 F) levels without the use of water or any other external cooling mechanism. Sunoco is very pleased with the results and has ordered product for the coating of five additional tanks.

Application Method Super Therm General Application Instructions: Surface Prep: Power wash surface with a minimum of 2,000 psi with citrus cleaner to remove all dirt, oil, tar, grease, or contaminants and previous coatings not tightly bonded. Surfaces are to be tested for salt contamination. Chlor-Rid or an equivalent is to be used as directed if salts are present. When surface is clean, rinse well with water and pick up all rinse water using industrial wet/dry vacuum. Surface must be completely dry and clean. Very Important. Mixing: Prior to application of Super Therm, the coating shall be mixed mechanically or by hand for three minutes, then applied. Prior to Application: Remove filters from the gun handle and spray machine prior to application, as they will trap the ceramics. Depending on surface, a primer may be required. Metal with no corrosion, no primer. Metal with corrosion present, Rust Grip required. Rubberized roofs (EPDM, PVC & TVO) require Super Base HS. Gravel or asphalt roofs require SP Liquid Membrane and Super Base HS. Application: Super Therm can be applied by brush, roller, or airless sprayer. If application is by brush, use a soft or medium bristle brush. Two coats will be required to achieve the desired thickness when using a brush. If application is by roller, use a 3/4 inch nap roller. Two coats will be required to achieve the desired thicknesses when using a roller. If application is by spray, use a standard airless sprayer (3,000 psi or more) with a carbon steel or titanium tip sized between.029 and.033. Keep sprayer tip approximately 12 from surface and overlap passes by 50%. Super Therm must be applied at no less than at total of 16 mils wet/9 mils dry (100 square/feet per gallon). If Super Therm is applied during a period of high humidity or if there is rain after application, bubbles may appear on the surface. Do not puncture the bubbles. This is normal and the coating will continue to cure with no effect on the performance or appearance of the coating. Bubbles will disappear without a trace or imprint.

Basic Technology and Technical Summary of Super Therm : Super Therm is an externally applied ceramic coating product, designed to prevent solar heat from loading on all external surfaces (buildings, vehicles, tents, etc.). When Super Therm is painted on any external surface, the surface will always be, and feel, cool when touched, regardless of how hot the ambient temperature is outside that day. Additionally, the surface temperature of any external surface painted with Super Therm, will always be ambient, or near ambient, depending on humidity levels. When Super Therm is applied to an external surface it will always be, and feel, cool to the human touch, because of two reasons: 1) Super Therm s ability to block 95% of the total solar heat attempting to load on an external surface; 2) The specific ceramics used in its formulation cannot physically hold solar heat, as a result of a lack of density. For example, if a piece of paper was placed next to a freshly painted white car, regardless of how hot the day is, the paper will not load with heat, it will always be cool to the touch and at an ambient temperature level, because paper does not have enough density, in it s composition, to hold solar heat. In this example, the freshly painted white car, however, will load with heat and will feel hot to the human touch, as it is made of metal (a very dense material that will hold heat) and merely being white in color will help, but will not prevent it from loading with heat. But, if painted with Super Therm, the car will always be, and feel, cool to the human touch and 95% of the solar heat will not load, even on dense metal. The specific ceramics used in Super Therm s formulation are 50 times lighter than paper and, thus, like paper, does not have enough density to load, hold and conduct solar heat. Buildings that cannot load and conduct solar heat will have lower surface temperatures on their roof, and lower solar BTU load and transmission, which will result in lower air conditioning and maintenance cost. Super Therm is very unique in its ability to dramatically shatter air conditioning cost, by keeping the surface cool to the touch and maintaining ambient or near ambient surface temperatures on the roofs of buildings and external surfaces of all types. Meaning that, on an 85 F degree day, regardless of the roof's existing material type (Metal, Fabric, Asphalt, Concrete, etc..), the roof's surface temperature, once simply painted with Super Therm, will be 85 F or near 85 F, (within 1-10 degrees, depending on humidity levels), rather than 140-200 F without Super Therm. This is a direct reflection of Super Therm s ability to lower the surface temperature and to block 95% of the total solar heat radiation attempting to load on the roof of buildings and any external surface. Infrared is 57%, Visual Light is 40% and UV is 3% of the solar heat attempting to load. Specifically, Super Therm blocks 99.5% of infrared heat, 92% of visual light, and 99% of ultraviolet (UV) light. In terms of composition, Super Therm is made of 4 very unique and specific ceramics, with very little density, within a water based formula, that not only reflects visual light (40 % of the heat load - white coatings can only impact Visual light as long as they stay clean, which they rarely do), Super Therm also blocks infrared (57% of the total heat load), as well. Infrared cannot effectively be reflected, by a coating, by merely being white in color, which is why most external surfaces just painted white, will still get hot, load with heat and feel hot to the touch. This explains why Super Therm continues to perform long term, even if it gets etched with acid rain or gets dirty, as most roofs and external surfaces do. Super Therm also combines urethane with the acrylic resins and ceramics in its composition, to provide an ASTM certified and breathable moisture barrier.
Basic Technology and Technical Summary of Super Therm : The combination of Super Therm's ability to: block 95% of the solar heat attempting to load on buildings; its high emissivity; its reflectivity; the fact that the ceramics used within it's composition have very little density and, therefore, cannot physically hold the solar heat attempting to load; not only results in an ambient or near ambient surface temperatures on the roofs of buildings, but also lower air conditioning cost, when Super Therm is applied. If the solar heat radiation and subsequent surface temperature on the roofs of buildings are minimized, then the amount of heat that ultimately conducts into the building is also minimized, thus requiring a lower need for air conditioning which equates to lower energy cost, as well as, lower maintenance cost. Ceramics are known for their heat resistant properties and ceramic coatings are already used in the automotive industry, on engine exhaust systems, and in the kitchen for cookware. The unique ceramics used in Super Therm have demonstrated the ability to block out 99.5% of infrared heat, 92% of visual light, and 99% of ultraviolet (UV) light. Super Therm has been tested by multiple laboratories and companies in the US and abroad, over the past 20 years. The U.S. Department of Energy has listed Super Therm as an Energy Star qualified product for roofs. An Overview of What Super Therm Does? Proactively prevents 95 % of solar heat gain on all external surfaces. Shatters air conditioning costs. Minimizes maintenance cost associated with contraction/expansion on surfaces. Reduces sound attenuation. Makes surfaces safer and more resistant to flash fires. Prevent mold and mildew growth Prevents moisture infiltration GREGORY ALLEN 770-827-5384
