TESLAN® 3100 Epoxy CNT Low-VOC Topcoat
Product Description
TESLAN® 3100 LOW VOC EPOXY-CNT TOPCOAT is a performance tested solvent-based, two-component, epoxy topcoat designed for the protection of steel and metallic substrates in harsh environments per ISO 12944-9 including CX, IM4, tidal & splash zones.
This epoxy topcoat incorporates carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for enhanced durability and maximized corrosion inhibition.
The power of CNTs imbue the topcoat with adhesion properties that place it in a class all its own. In both internal and third-party pull-off adhesion testing, the bond between Tesla Nanocoating systems and the test substrate routinely outperforms other offshore coating systems.

NORSOK, ISO 12944-9, and AMPP TM21612 Tested Topcoats
All topcoat products from Tesla NanoCoatings are formulated to not just adhere to the industry’s highest testing standards, but to exceed them. These standards include AMPP Offshore, NORSOK M-501, ISO 12944-9, and additional extreme aging testing.
NORSOK is a set of testing standards developed by the Norwegian Oil Industry Association and Federation of Norwegian Manufacturing Industries with the purpose of facilitating maximum safety and efficiency of coating systems for the petroleum industry. On a global scale, the Association for Materials Protection and Performance (AMPP) has their own set of standards to analyze protective coating performance based on common failure modes offshore, like AMPP TM21612 for liquid-applied coatings. Similarly, ISO 12944-9 is a testing standard developed by the International Organization for Standardization for evaluating the effectiveness and properties of offshore coating systems for steel structures. These sets of standards are recognized across the globe as some of the highest marks of quality that a protective coating system can bear– but we can do better. Tesla NanoCoatings is proud to provide topcoats which surpass the standards set by AMPP, NORSOK M501, ISO 12944-9, and additional extreme aging testing.
Low VOC Topcoat Products
All topcoat products from Tesla NanoCoatings are made with low-VOC formulations. Our low VOC epoxy coating products can not only make for a safer coating application process but also slash application time compared to traditional protective coating systems. Learn more about the significance and sustainability benefits of low VOC epoxy protective coatings in offshore applications in the Tesla NanoCoatings Newsroom.
Why Choose a CNT and Zinc Coating System?
Our Low VOC Topcoats are designed to be used in conjunction with CNT-Zinc primer products by Tesla NanoCoatings. These primers are the first of their kind that effectively harness the strength of carbon nanotubes. While zinc primers are known for their excellent cathodic protection properties in traditional coating systems, combining them with CNTs has resulted in the development of the most durable and effective epoxy protective coating system available in today’s market. Discover the power of the winning CNT-zinc combo in our blog posts about the Synergy of Zinc with Carbon Nanotubes and Zinc Primer Technology Innovations.
Our topcoats are just part of what makes Tesla NanoCoatings the industry’s best. To learn more about how TESLAN® coatings can help you save by offering superior protection of steel assets like rigs and offshore structures in just a fraction of the time, give us a call or send us an email today.
