Changing The Landscape Of Thermal Insulation Coatings

Product Number: 51322-18201-SG

Author: Jeremy Daum, Neil Wilds

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Thermal insulation is a material that restricts the flow of heat. Heat spontaneously flows from a high temperature region to a low temperature region, and the greatest heat flow occurs through the path of least resistance. For this reason, thermal insulation is used as a barrier between two bodies at different temperatures either to reduce heat loss from the hotter body or to reduce heat entry into the cooler body.

Characterization And Further Development Of Austenitic Stainless Steel UNS S20910 Towards New Industrial Applications

Product Number: 51322-17648-SG

Author: Clara Herrera, Merlin Seifert, Helmuth Sarmiento Klapper, Julia Ditmann

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

UNS S20910¹, also known as XM-19 by ASTM A276², is a nitrogen-strengthened austenitic stainless steel with high strength and excellent corrosion resistance. Besides nitrogen (N) it also contains higher amounts of chromium (Cr), nickel (Ni), manganese (Mn), and a similar molybdenum (Mo) content compared with UNS S31603, as well as small additions of niobium (Nb) and vanadium (V). High contents of Cr, Mo and N confer this stainless steel high localized corrosion resistance. Mo, Mn and Cr increase the nitrogen solubility in iron alloys.

Characterization of Coating Performance in Various Natural Exposure Environments

Product Number: 41205-201-SG

Author: S.L. Sampson, J.P. Repp, J.A. Ellor, J.P. Ault, C.L. Farschon

Publication Date: 2005

$20.00

The subject paper presents updated inspection data from a Federal Highway Administration study of the effect of local environments on the degradation of alternative bridge coating materials. Exposure data covers up to nine years of service in several diverse environments, including sites representative of marine, industrial, and rural service environments. Paint deterioration is characterized as the result of local atmospheric parameters, time of wetness, and airborne contaminants

Characterization Of The Surface Chemistry At Corroded And Non-Corroded Sites On Aluminum Alloy 7075-T6 Samples Exposed At Coastal Locations

Product Number: 51322-17642-SG

Author: Douglas C. Hansen, David Borth, Farrah Cole

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Knowledge of the localized corrosion environment on a metal substrate can provide the critical link between atmospheric data and corrosion morphology and can enable the formation of a framework to predict service life as a function of environment. Over the last few decades the analytical characterization of bare metal surfaces undergoing atmospheric corrosion has improved, resulting in a more complete understanding and consideration of the environmental parameters involved. However, the corrosion processes and the role that the environmental parameters play in what is a multiphase system is rather complex involving chemical reactions and equilibria, ionic transport phenomena, and gaseous, aqueous and solid phases.

Characterization of the Surface Mechanical properties of Paints and Polymeric Surface Coatings

Product Number: 41209-502-SG

Author: Nicholas X. Randall

Publication Date: 2009

$20.00

The mechanical properties of polymeric coatings are often overlooked because researchers are not aware of how modern instrumentation can now aid them in understanding how a particular product may survive in service conditions. In many applications the two main considerations are aesthetics and durability, both of which can be directly related to the mechanical properties of the base material.

Characterizing Bulk Porosity of CBPC Coating in Aggressive Bridge Exposure

Product Number: 51217-071-SG

Author: Ahsan Sabbir, Saiada Fuadi Fancy, Kingsley Lau

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

The bulk characteristics of Chemically Bonded Phosphate Ceramic (CBPC) coating was investigated for marine bridge application in alternate wet and dry exposure. Assessment of possible bulk coating degradation was made by physical testing, Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry (MIP) and electrochemical techniques. The bulk coating material was observed to become chalky and in some cases form cracks when exposed to alternate wet and dry conditions. Cohesive strength appeared to degrade.

Characterizing Corrosion On AA-7075 Through Alternative Cleaning Methods And Optical Profilometry

Product Number: 51322-17579-SG

Author: Steven Kopitzke, Karla De Jesus Santiago, Rachel Black

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Measuring the severity of corrosion on a specific alloy is often accomplished via mass loss using ASTM G-1. These processes work well and provide high fidelity data for many materials, especially steels. However, recent internal findings and disclosures from other research groups have highlighted a potential issue with using mass loss techniques to measure the damage on some aluminum alloy surfaces.

Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (CARC) System for Military Vehicles

Product Number: 41216-996-SG

Author: Alex G. Piazza

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

The United States Army and Marine Corps (USMC) paint their vehicles with the Chemical Agent Resistant Coating (CARC) system. This system consists of a pretreatment, an epoxy primer, and polyurethane topcoat, similar to many other industrial paint systems, but with added functional requirements (e.g., chemical agent resistance, camouflage, and signature reduction) unique to these paints. The systems that utilize these coatings are also designed for specific capabilities, of which corrosion is usually a lower priority. Lastly, the vehicles and equipment of the Army and USMC typically operate in harsh environments, which are highly corrosive.

Chemical Mitigation Of Alkaline Carbonate Stress Corrosion Cracking

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Organic corrosion inhibitors (CI) have widespread use in the crude oil refining industry for corrosion protection and mitigation.¹ An effective corrosion inhibitor is a chemical substance that is applied in low concentration into a stream which suppresses or mitigates a corrosion mechanism.^,2,3,4 Inhibitors can be classified into two classes: adsorption or film-forming with organic inhibitors falling under the adsorption class. In this type of inhibitor a self-assembled structure is formed, where an array of hydrocarbon tails extend away from the metal surface and the polar groups (e.g., N in amines) chemisorb onto the metal surface.² Over the years, certain classes of inhibitors have been established as industry standards to confront specific corrosion mechanisms encountered throughout the refinery process. Examples include, filming and neutralizing amines used in crude units to combat aqueous corrosion; polysulfides used in FCCU to combat hydrogen blistering, cracking and embrittlement; P-based chemistries to combat naphthenic acid corrosion.⁵
