Original Abstract

New types of highly chemically resistant coating systems, primarily intended for concrete and metal substrates, were designed and experimentally verified in the paper. Secondary raw materials in optimal amounts, including solidified hazardous waste (e.g., end product and cement bypass dust), were used as microfillers. The polymer coating systems, containing pre-treated hazardous waste (HW), showed high abrasion resistance and excellent adhesion to metal and concrete surfaces. Based on polyurethane and epoxy resins, the coatings can be used in environments where aggressive chemical media act, such as sewers and the chemical industry. The developed polymeric coating systems showed even better properties than the compared reference coating systems. The chemical resistance of the three-layer coating systems was evaluated both visually and based on changes in mechanical properties, such as hardness and adhesion. The microstructure of the coating systems was also monitored using a digital optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope with energy dispersive X-ray analysis (SEM-EDX) after chemical stress. It was observed that the particles of HW were fully incorporated into the polymer matrix of the coating systems.
