Contamination Control Coatings

GSA LogoBSI is a GSA Advantage contract holder for our Polymeric Barrier System & Stripcoat TLC Free™. Pricing has been placed on the GSA Schedule for authorized purchasers (Contract # GS-21F-0022T).

Polymeric Barrier System (PBS)

The Polymeric Barrier System (PBS) is a non-toxic, water-based solution which forms an impermeable barrier between hazardous or contaminated materials and the environment. Apply PBS to any surface to lock down loose contamination and prevent leaching of contaminates. PBS is commonly used to stabilize large plant components, concrete, valves, and other problematic radwaste equipment prior to shipment. PBS is also used to control environmental contamination and soil erosion, providing a far superior alternative to the traditional approach of plastic sheeting or tarpaulins. Easily applied in the field, PBS is ideal for minimizing the dispersion of contaminated materials, covering contaminated soil or construction debris, protecting equipment, stabilizing burial trench soil, confining spills and coating asbestos materials.

Features & Benefits

  • Easily applied with industrial airless sprayer, paint roller or brush
  • One gallon covers approximately 50 square feet at 25 mils
  • Quickly dries in 8–24 hours
  • Low-cost solution
  • Available in 5 or 55-gallon quantities

Stripcoat TLC FreeTM (Stripcoat)

Stripcoat is a non-hazardous, non-toxic, water-based solution designed to safety remove and prevent the spread of contamination. Recommended for the decontamination of floors, walls and equipment, Stripcoat’s chemical composition also makes it ideal for system components including reactor cavities, glove boxes or hot cells. Stripcoat can also serve as a barrier to prevent contamination or as a covering to contain contamination, preventing areas and equipment from becoming contaminated during maintenance activities.

While curing, Stripcoat mechanically and chemically entraps contamination. After curing, the coating strips off, along with loose surface contamination. Proven effective, Stripcoat has achieved decontamination factors of several hundred (with 200 representing the removal of 99.5% of radioactive film).

Features & Benefits

  • Easily applied with industrial airless sprayer, paint roller or brush
  • One gallon covers up to 50 square feet
  • Quickly dries in 4–12 hours
  • Low waste volumes
  • Water-soluble for easy clean-up
  • Approved for disposal at low-level radioactive waste facilities or by incineration
