Minimizing Health, Safety, and Environmental Challenges Associated with Traditional Blasting by Using Vapor Abrasive Blasting

Product Number: 41215-889-SG

Author: Bill Eliason

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Industries such as oil and gas, marine, cleaning and protective coatings face many changes and challenges from environmental, safety and other regulatory agencies. Most of these changes have to do with containment regulations and minimizing dust in open air blast environments. With these regulations now in place, contractors are looking for alternatives to traditional dry blasting.

Moisture Management In Thermal Insulations For In-Service And Out Of Service Pipelines

Product Number: 51322-17594-SG

Author: Ahmad Raza Khan Rana, Graham Brigham

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Thermally insulated pipelines have wide networks globally that are used to transport various chemicals, hydrocarbons as well as steam. CUI (corrosion under insulation), external SCC (stress corrosion cracking) and corrosion fatigue are some of the prominent damage mechanisms which may occur on the external surface of insulated pipes/ pipelines that in turn jeopardize the long-term integrity and operations. The moisture is undoubtedly the key contributor behind the above said external degradations of metallic surfaces and can come under thermal insulations via seepage and/ or condensation. Various factors that influence the extent of moisture intrusion are the design of insulated system(s), type and age of insulation, operating temperature of pipeline(s) as well as environmental and neighborhood conditions.

Moisture Test methods, Comparisons, Commonalities and Dissimilarities

Product Number: 41215-929-SG

Author: Steven Schroeder

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Moisture testing of concrete substrates has become a common practice in the floor coatings industry. Even though most contractors and field technicians are capable of performing the testing, they don’t really understand what the data they are collecting means, other than the acceptance criteria established by the product manufacturer of the coating or flooring being installed.

Moisture Testing and Inspecting for Concrete Floors to Receive Coatings

Product Number: 41216-991-SG

Author: Brian O’Farrell

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

The importance of moisture testing of concrete floors cannot be stressed enough. Moisture is a leading cause of coatings failures on concrete floors. There are many ways moisture can affect floor coatings on concrete. Moisture testing alone is not sufficient enough at detecting all of the potential problems. Inspecting a building prior to performing any tests will provide a much clearer picture of the potential problems moisture in both liquid and vapor form can pose.

Monitoring Localized Corrosion Distribution Of Steel Bar In Concrete With OFDR Distributed Optical Fiber

Product Number: 51322-17777-SG

Author: Fujian Tang, Jialiang Hu, Hong-Nan Li, Liang Ren, Els Verstrynge

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Steel rebars in concrete structures are usually protected from corrosion by a thin layer of passive film, which is formed due to the high alkalinity of concrete pore solution.^1-2 However, this protective passive film could be damaged by penetration of chloride into concrete structures in marine environments or exposure to the use of de-icing salt for the removal of snow and ice in winter times.³ Penetration of chloride would impair the passive film locally and initiate pitting corrosion.

Multitask Learning Framework For Screening Of Corrosion Inhibitors For Mild Steel

Product Number: 51322-17757-SG

Author: Abhishek Agarwal, Pradeep Rathore, Dharmendr Kumar, Sri Harsha Nistala, S Sanjana, Vinay Jain, Beena Rai

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

Corrosion of metallic structures is a ubiquitous problem in industries such as power generation, oil and gas, pulp and paper, metals processing etc. which also results in significant financial losses. According to the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) International report, the global cost of corrosion was ~ 2.5 trillion USD in 2013 - close to 3.4 percent GDP of the entire world. The use of corrosion inhibitors is one of the most effective and economical ways to mitigate corrosion of metal and alloy components. Corrosion inhibitors are substances that are added in small quantities in corrosive media to protect metal and alloy components from corrosion.

Myth or Fact: Higher Surface Profile Increases Coating Adhesion

Product Number: 41216-969-SG

Author: Brad Gooden

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Many coating product data sheets call for surface profiles of 3-4 mils. Others call for 1.5-2 miles surface profile for a very similar coating type – why should this be? To start to understand this we need to first of all look at why we measure the surface profile on steel surfaces. It pretty much comes down to two main things.
