FEVE Fluoropolymer Coatings for High Performance Waterbased Applications

FEVE Fluoropolymer Coatings for High Performance Waterbased Applications
Available for download

Performance, cost, and safety drive the coatings industry. Safer and environmentally friendly coatings continue to be a hot topic of discussion globally; however, the adoption of greener coating technologies is slow, especially in the US. This could be attributed to many factors, but from the formulator's perspective, performance is key. Waterborne coatings have been used in architectural applications for decades, but typically these coatings are valued mostly for aesthetics, ease of use, and low cost.

Performance, cost, and safety drive the coatings industry. Safer and environmentally friendly coatings continue to be a hot topic of discussion globally; however, the adoption of greener coating technologies is slow, especially in the US. This could be attributed to many factors, but from the formulator's perspective, performance is key. Waterborne coatings have been used in architectural applications for decades, but typically these coatings are valued mostly for aesthetics, ease of use, and low cost. The use of waterborne coatings in industrial applications, where higher performance is required, is still uncommon. FEVE fluoropolymer resins are known in the industry as having outstanding durability in exterior industrial and architectural applications. The original FEVE fluoropolymers were synthesized in solvent, but are now available in several water based grades, both emulsion and dispersion. This paper will review the performance of several waterbased formulations based on FEVE resins including a 2K waterbased polyurethane system and a 1K system based on a blend of acrylic and FEVE emulsion. Results of long-term weatherability (QUV-A and Xenon Arc) and corrosion resistance (Prohesion) will be reviewed. A comparison of the final results to that of an FEVEbased solventborne 2K coating will also be made. And finally, an overview of the latest grade of FEVE waterbased emulsion will be discussed.

In recent years, many tall and large-scale structures have been constructed under harsh environmental conditions. It is required to protect steel structures from a variety of environmental factors over a long period of time. In order to meet such requirements, the increase in durability, extension of lifetime and reduction in life-cycle cost of protective coatings has constantly been the subject of investigations.

Steel structures are often galvanized to ensure durability in harsh environments. However, on occasion, incidents of cracking have occurred in galvanized structures that appear to be induced during the galvanizing process. Such cracking incidences produce a significant cost to the industry, in that repair procedures are often necessary to eliminate any flaws present directly after galvanizing.

The growth rate of small and long stress corrosion and corrosion fatigue cracks in 12Cr steam turbine blade steels in low conductivity water containing 35 ppm Cl- (simulating upset steam condensate chemistry) showed a significant dependence on crack size for the same mechanical driving force.
