Abstract

Copper heat exchangers for wall-mounted boilers, protected by a coating of silicone resin with iron oxide and graphite pigments. A process for effectively applying such a protective coating to the copper heat exchanger is also described.

Description

IMPROVED COPPER HEAT EXCHANGER FOR WALL-MOUNTED BOILERS 1 This invention
relates to a new copper heat exchanger for wallmounted boilers which is effectively protected against corrosion due to acid condensate and high temperature, thus giving the heat exchanger high efficiency and a longer life. The invention also relates to the specific process for applying the necessary coating to the heat exchanger to be protected. Coatings for protecting the heat exchanger of wall-mounted boilers are already known in the art, and generally consist of silicone resins pigmented with aluminium. Said known aluminium-silicone coatings provide effective protection against high temperature but have the drawback of not being equally effective against condensate because of the chemical nature of the aluminium pigment which is known to be easily attacked by acid solutions and hence deteriorates with consequent loss of the barrier effect against corrosion of the underlying copper. Again, the current tendency towards high-efficiency wall-mounted boilers enhances the problem of corrosion of the heat exchanger copper by acid condensate, so emphasizing the said deficiency of known coatings.
2 The object of the present invention is to overcome said drawback by providing a coating for the copper heat exchanger of wallmounted boilers which besides being resistant to the high temperatures prevailing in modern wall-mounted boilers creates an effective highly anticorrosive barrier protective against the acid condensate which is particularly abundant in high-efficiency wallmounted boilers. This is substantially attained by replacing said aluminium pigment with other protective pigments inert against the aggressive action of acid condensates, such as a mixture of iron oxide and graphite, which in addition to said advantages gives the coating and hence the heat exchanger a black coloration which increases and favours heat transfer. Thus the protection coating for the copper heat exchanger of wall- mounted boilers, said coating consisting of a silicone resin, is characterised by containing as pigment a mixture of iron oxide and graphite. As found experimentally, because of the complex geometry of the heat exchanger the effectiveness of such a protective coating depends strictly on an immersion application process with precisely defined operating parameters. More specifically, the process for applying said coating to the copper heat exchanger of wall-mounted boilers, said process being by immersion, is characterised by the following stages: ediusting the Ford No. 4 cup viscosity of the coating by appropriate dilution with solvent to within a range of 40-55 secons; keeping the heat exchanger to be protected in the conveniently abitatea 1 1 IL Z - coating bath at said viscosity for a time of between 20 and 30 seconds; allowing the coating layer applied to the heat exchanger to dry in air for a time of not less than 30 minutes; and finally polymerizing said coating layer in an oven at 100-1901C for a time 5 of not less than 30 minutes. Exceptionally good experimental results in terms of an effectively protected and hence long-life heat exchanger were obtained by immersing the heat exchanger for 20 seconds in a bath of silicone resin with added iron oxide and graphite having a Ford No. 4 cup viscosity of 42 seconds, then drying the applied heat exchanger coating layer for 30 minutes in air and finally polymerizing said coating layer in an oven for 30 minutes at 165'C.

A process for applying a coating composition as claimed in claim 1 to a heat exchanger of a wall mounted boiler, characterised by the following successive stages: adjusting the Ford No. 4 cup - viscosity of the coating composition by appropriate dilution with solvent to within a range of 40-55 seconds; keeping the heat exchanger to be protected in a coating bath (preferably an agitated coating bath) at said viscosity for a time of between 20 and 30 seconds; allowing the coating layer applied to the heat exchanger to dry in air for a time of not less than 30 minutes; and finally polymerizing said coating layer in an oven at 100-1900C for a time of not less than 30 minutes.
7. A process for applying a coating composition as claimed in claim 1 to a heat exchanger of a wall mounted boiler, characterised by immersing the heat exchanger for 20 seconds in a bath of said coating diluted to a Ford No. 4 cup viscosity of 42 seconds, then drying the applied heat exchanger coating layer for 30 minutes in air and finally polymerizing said coating layer in an oven for 30 minutes at 1650C.
8. A process as claimed in claim 6 or 7, the heat exchanger being a copper heat exchanger.
