U.N.L.V. Study

An independent study on Cerama-Tech was performed at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas under the direction of the Mechanical Engineering Department. The study, called (AREL), was designed to test new technologies that help in saving on energy demand. The test facility is located at the Thomas Beam Engineering Complex, on campus and is composed of two chambers (Houses), 9 ft. x 12 ft. x 8 ft. in size. The wall construction consists of two 1/2 in. particle boards and 6 in, styrofoam sandwiched between them. Also, the floor is made of the same construction and has an R value of 22 Btu/Hr-ft^2-F. The attic is covered with 6 in. of fiberglass insulation and has an R value of 19 Btu/Hr-ft^2-f. The rooms are equipped with several instruments such as thermocouples, heat flux sensors, and two identical heating and cooling system units. Also, the weather is monitored by a computer based data acquisition system monitored by thermocouples, a pyranometer, and a wind monitor, to record different variables that help in assessing the performance of each of these technologies.

The first technology tested was Cerama-Tech... The test results showed the chamber that was painted with regular outdoor paint showed a 52.20% increase in energy usage compared to the chamber painted with Cerama-Tech.

CERAMA-TECH Features

INSTALLATIONS
Cerama-Tech is a proven and widely accepted ceramic insulation coating which has been installed in millions of square feet of applications. It is also utilized in commercial, industrial and residential roofing, interior and exterior painting, metal buildings, pipes, boilers, boat bottoms, flotation devices and sound rooms.
ELASTOMERIC
The Submitted sample was prepared as a free film over a urethane substrate and tested in accordance with ASTM - D2370. Results show an elongation at break of 300. Cerama-Tech is water-based acrylic which emits low odor and complies with strictest Federal and local regulations. Cerama-Tech is perfect for renovating occupied building space.
ABUSE RESISTANT
Cerama-Tech cures to a super hard finish that will remain impervious to outside elements and atmospheric conditions.
MODERATE COST
Although
Cerama-Tech looks expensive, it is very competitive in price with normal coatings. Since it is easy to clean and does not require repainting for many years, maintenance costs are also less.
FADE RESISTANT
Factory testing along with outside application tests have shown that the color retention factor remains constant, and no fading has occurred on the product tested in the Weatherometer for over 5000 hours, or the equivalent of over thirteen years. Added results show -- Durability, Grain Crack Resistance and Film Integrity -- EXCELLENT--.
WARRANTY
Cerama-Tech coating features a 15 year limited warranty against chipping, flaking and peeling. See the manufacturers full written warranty for more specific information.
MILDEW RESISTANT
Cerama-Tech does not trap moisture. This feature combined with a long term mildewcide gives the coating a chemical composition that does not contribute to the growth of mildew.
SUPPORT SERVICE
Our specialty-trained support team will assist you with your specific requirements. Services include specification assistance, technical information, custom applications, etc.
WASHABLE
Cerama-Tech is not damaged by water. Most dirt, light scuffs, crayon, or pencil marks, lipstick, grease pencil, and most other types of coverings can be removed with a scrub brush and most commercial cleaning agents.
INSULATION
Working in the principal of Reflectability and Emissivity, creating a reflective barrier,
Cerama-Tech has been able to show energy savings of over 50% on heating and cooling costs.
FIRE RETARDANT
Cerama-Tech substantially exceeds Standard Building Code requirements for Type 1 and Class A materials. Cerama-Tech has had both ASTM - D3806 and ASTM - E 84 flame spread testing performed by 2 separate approved testing laboratories with a resulting flamespread of 10 or less, and smoke contribution of less than 5.0.

Ceramic Paint Outperforms Insulation

As impossible as it sounds, Cerama-Tech International, a San Diego based Corporation, has developed a ceramic paint that Insulates, is a Certified Fire Retardant (Class A Type 1), Suppresses Sound, Encapsulates Lead and Asbestos and looks and applies like ordinary paint.

A major University study conducted by the Mechanical Engineering Department at U.N.L.V., showed that Cerama-Tech can save over 52% on heating and cooling, costs which equates to immense energy savings.

By utilizing ceramic platelets into its copolymer, elastomeric paint formula, these microscopic platelets (eliminate spheres) have the ability to form an overlapping ceramic shield during the drying process. This ceramic shield has the ability to dissipate hear at a very rapid rate and to reflect the heat back into the atmosphere rather than allow it to be conducted to the underlying surface. Cerama-Tech is classified as a Radiant Control Coating (RCC), similar to a radiant barrier, but much easier to apply or install. It can be applied to virtually any surface and it can be applied by brush, roller or spray gun. This "paint it on principle", makes Cerama-Tech the easiest and most cost effective method of applying insulation in almost every insulation application.

Cerama-Tech is also rated as a long lasting paint coating which allows longer periods between re-painting inside, outside and high traffic areas. This product will outperform almost every other paint or coating available on the market today and do it at a very moderate cost. All this equates to a simple, cost effective means of insulating and painting.
