This paper will address both existing and new air barrier technology. Manufacturers, engineers, architects, trade professionals, and testing agencies will learn essential features of this emerging industry. Manufacturers will learn about the material properties and product performance requirements of air barrier coatings. Engineers and architects will learn basic building science principals required to create an air barrier utilizing coatings. We will present testing methods used to measure compliance with specifications and codes. Addressing the background and history of the air barrier industry over the last 40 years and the development of materials and assemblies as well as whole building air tightness requirements and will explain where coatings have found a unique niche within the market. The paper is not comprehensive in dealing in any topic but rather is meant to serve as a wide-angle lens to portray the headline concerns and considerations of which manufactures, designers, and contractors and installers must be aware to successfully enter the thin-coating AVB market.

Applying Common Sense to Moisture Vapor Emissions and Moisture Content Test Requirements When Coating Below Grade Concrete Structures in Wastewater Applications

Product Number: 41216-989-SG
Author: R. A. Nixon
Publication Date: 2016
$20.00

When establishing the minimum conditions suitable for coating concrete, many coating manufacturers, and hence specifying engineers and contractors, generally rely on unrealistic moisture content and moisture vapor emission rate requirements. These compulsory values are founded on laboratory testing rather than field experience, or worse still, on supposition rooted in unachievable and unrelated requisites.

(Coating Formulation) Corrosion Resistance Comparison of Zinc-Rich Epoxy With Reduced Zinc Levels

Product Number: 46-COAT_DEC21
Author: Mary Roley
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

Zinc-rich coatings have long been known to provide excellent corrosion resistance in highly corrosive environments, in general,inorganic zincs for new construction and organic zincs for maintenance. A recent trend has been toward zinc-rich coatings with reduced levels of zinc dust. An SSPC committee formed to revise SSPC Paint 29, Zinc Dust Sacrificial Primer, Performance Based, to reference performance only, removing reference to minimum zinc dust level.

An Overview and Comparison of Surface Cleanliness Standards for the Protective Coatings Industry

Product Number: 41216-965-SG
Author: Nico Frankhuizen
Publication Date: 2016
$20.00

At present multiple standards on blast-cleaned surfaces are in use depending on region and specifications of the project. However, most standards are relatively clear on the description of a surface some overlap each other. These overlaps are often considerate as the norm for the most comparisons between ISO and related documents, however, sometimes are significantly off. Some of these documents will be highlighted to compare the results and their impact on the coating job.
