“This Ain’t Your Mothers Dehumidifier Anymore! New Advancements in Temporary Dehumidification Equipment Meets “Green” Objectives While Reducing Operating Costs

This Ain’t Your Mothers Dehumidifier Anymore! New Advancements in Temporary Dehumidification Equipment Meets “Green” Objectives While Reducing Operating Costs
Available for download

The paint and coatings industry has witnessed significant change over the past 50 years. These changes have been driven by many factors including VOC mandates, safety concerns, advanced polymers and new demands of the end users and materials. One of those changes was the introduction of desiccant dehumidification to assist in the blast and coatings process of liquid storage tanks in 1983. The ability to indefinitely hold a blast by providing a dry climate mechanically set off the beginning of a technology that would continue to advance for years to come.

(Inspection) What Do You Really Need to Know to be a Good Coatings Inspector?

Product Number: 60-COAT_DEC21
Author: William D. Corbett
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

The role of a Coating Inspector has evolved considerably over the past few decades, and the responsibilities have increased over what used to be a rather straightforward job: to verify that surface preparation and coating application meet the project specification requirements. Today there are week-long or multi-week basic and advanced coating inspection courses, specialty courses that are industry-specific (e.g., bridge, nuclear), courses that are substrate-specific (e.g., concrete coatings inspection) and even coating-specific (e.g., inspection of thermal spray coatings).

(Coating Formulation) Efficacy of Zinc Content in Sacrificial Protection of Coatings

Product Number: 44-COAT_DEC21
Author: Nicole Rakers / Mary Lyn Lim / Michael McCarthy / James Begley
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

Zinc rich coatings have long been used in the protective coatings industry as one of the primary means of steel substrate protection against corrosion. The primary protection mechanism has historically been galvanic sacrificial loss of zinc metal and the simultaneous formation of protective zinc oxides and salts. Various standards and customer specifications exist to ensure that the coating will provide the necessary corrosion protection for the life of the asset.

(Coating Application, Types & Characteristics) Use of Duplex Coating Systems for Protection of Structural Steel

Product Number: 15-COAT_DEC21
Author: William D. Corbett
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

The use of duplex coating systems (hot dip galvanizing or thermal spray coating with one or more liquid-applied coatings) for long term protection of structural steel is becoming more mainstream in many industries. This paper describes the advantages of employing duplex coating systems as well as some important considerations for designers prior to specifying their use. It also highlights an ongoing initiative to help agencies more efficiently and effectively use duplex coatings on steel bridges by developing guidelines, standards, and other materials.
