AGUA JAPAN List of Products and Services

AGUA-D1000 is an internal penetration type dust control agent. It is developed based on a treatment agent that has a proven track record in preventing the dispersion of asbestos and radioactive materials. It is optimal for suppressing dust dispersion (wetting) and solidification treatment in various demolition and removal projects. Being water-based and inorganic, it is non-flammable and can be handled safely. Additionally, it helps reduce watering costs in demolition work and prevents the outflow of harmful substances and accidents caused by excessive watering and muddy conditions.

AGUA-A3000 can achieve "removal," "containment," and "dust prevention" all in one solution. Coupled with its ease of handling, it demonstrates excellent performance across a wide range of sites. Of course, it is an inorganic, odorless water-based treatment agent unique to AGUA JAPAN, balancing high permeability with excellent dust prevention, ease of application, and safety. It effectively reduces the burden not only on the workers but also on nearby residents and passersby. Its high safety has been proven by its adoption for preventing the dispersion of radioactive materials at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant operated by Tokyo Electric Power Company.

While maintaining the color and texture of existing coatings and substrates, it can suppress the growth of algae and mold over the long term. 【Main Features】 - Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications - Compatible with various coatings and substrates - One-component type for ease of use - High durability, effectively functions without leaching during rain or cleaning *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Coating Agent

This is a super-fast-drying heat-insulating paint that allows for one coat of primer and one coat of topcoat, with a drying interval of just 30 minutes each, thanks to its unique formulation. *The primer can also be used for purposes other than heat insulation. Because it dries quickly even in winter, concerns about paint running due to night dew or rain during application are reduced, making it possible to shorten construction time and costs. Additionally, thanks to our unique surface orientation technology, special fine ceramics used for semiconductor thermal management are oriented on the surface. This effectively suppresses temperature rise due to excellent reflection and radiation functions. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Delacool achieves an outstanding heat-insulating coating with a film hardness of 2H. It is suitable not only for conventional buildings but also for walking surfaces, movable parts like handrails, benches, and shutters, as well as automobiles. Moreover, it can be completed in as little as one coat and offers quick drying in just one hour. This expands the range of applications for painting. Additionally, regarding heat insulation effects, it incorporates special ceramics used as cooling materials in semiconductors, achieving superior heat insulation compared to paints made solely with heat-insulating pigments. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*

AGUA MG100 is a new anti-rust primer designed to meet the demands of harsh offshore environments. After undergoing a long-term verification period of 30 months on ocean-going vessels, this product has been commercialized and is recognized for its excellent anti-rust performance, ease of application, and quick-drying properties, leading to numerous adoptions in both domestic and international shipping. Since it is not necessary to completely remove rust during surface preparation, it reduces labor and effort. Thanks to its unique technology, it exhibits low viscosity and high penetrability. It penetrates deep into iron parts, converting red rust to black rust, thereby suppressing the progression of rust while simultaneously forming a primer layer. With a quick-drying time of 1 hour (at 23°C), it allows for a smooth transition to the next process, contributing to a reduction in maintenance costs and working time related to rust.

• Rust Inhibitor

In 2021, benzyl alcohol, which was added to the risk assessment targets, as well as chlorinated solvents (such as dichloromethane) and NMP, which are noted for their carcinogenicity, are not included, allowing for stripping work that imposes less burden on workers and the surrounding environment. By swelling and softening the paint film, it enables stripping with hand tools, thereby minimizing noise and dust generation.

We provide consultations regarding construction related to asbestos surveys. We cater to various needs for all types of asbestos treatment (from LV1 to LV3). Our certified asbestos-containing building material surveyors conduct on-site investigations, create optimal treatment plans, and carry out construction in a short period. At the same time, we handle various notifications and reports. Additionally, our NETIS registered 'AGUA series' (non-combustible, odorless, VOC-free) is a water-based inorganic asbestos treatment agent that promotes non-asbestos conversion through chemical reactions. It has excellent permeability, high work efficiency, and can be used for removal and encapsulation work. We also have a proven track record of using it as a dust suppression agent for high radiation dust at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, which was affected by the Tohoku earthquake. (We also welcome inquiries for the sale of treatment agents only.)

Recently, asbestos has become a significant social issue. Health hazards in various facilities and factories have become apparent, raising concerns about its dangers. We originally developed a treatment agent to address asbestos handling in the harsh, sealed conditions aboard ships, with research and development support from the Ocean Policy Research Foundation. We not only aimed to suppress the dispersion of asbestos but also thoroughly pursued the safety of the treatment agent itself, leading to the development of three types of treatment agents. **Main Features of the Treatment Agents:** - Non-VOC: Contains no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) harmful to human health, thus protecting the health of workers. - Non-combustible: Made from inorganic non-combustible materials, it does not burn. - High penetration: Quickly penetrates all asbestos-containing building materials without stickiness, allowing for efficient work. - Odorless: Being odorless, it does not burden workers and does not affect the surrounding environment. Additionally, we are available for consultations regarding construction. As regulations become stricter, we have established a system to meet various needs from LV1 to LV3. **For more details, please download the catalog or feel free to contact us.**

By adding a compression solidification process to the conventional asbestos treatment method, we provide enhanced safety. After the removal of asbestos, compressing and solidifying it significantly reduces the risk of asbestos dispersing, even if the bags are damaged during transport or at the final disposal site. This is AGUA's unique asbestos treatment method, ahead of increasingly stringent legal regulations.

It was developed to be completely inorganic so that it can be used in enclosed spaces like on ships. It is also excellent in fire resistance and, after undergoing various tests, was used as a dust suppressant for the building sections of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant that were affected by the Tohoku earthquake. It is effective for dust suppression from debris and for dust suppression of incineration ash, among other uses.

Recently, asbestos has become a significant social issue, with health damages in various facilities and factories becoming apparent, raising concerns about its dangers. Originally, we developed an asbestos treatment agent with the support of the Nippon Foundation (Ocean Policy Research Foundation) to address asbestos handling in the harsh, confined conditions aboard ships. We not only focused on suppressing the dispersion of asbestos but also thoroughly pursued the safety of the treatment agent itself, leading to the development of three types of treatment agents. Moving forward, we will continue to address the asbestos issue through the approach of treatment agents, catering to a wide range of needs.
