New Coating Technologies for Long Lasting Corrosion Protection - A Newly Developed Epoxy Coating Tailormade for Moist and Rusted Surfaces

All steel structures need periodic maintenance. During maintenance of the corrosion protection of such structures dry abrasive blasting has traditionally been standard practice. Over the years it has become more and more common to use water jetting for this purpose. Water jetting leaves a clean surface, free of old coating, loose particles, salt and contamination. Although water jetting produces no additional surface profile, the profile of the substrate during the new build stage is renewed. One downside of water jetting is the formation of flash rust. The degree of flash rust increases with various parameters such as temperature, relative humidity and soluble salt contamination. Furthermore, after water jetting the surface may be moist or damp, and to ensure a fast return to service the maintenance coating needs to be water tolerant. This paper presents a newly developed epoxy primer tailormade for moist and flash rusted surfaces.

New Coating Technology to Resolve External Surface Casing Chronic Corrosion Challenge

Product Number: MECC23-19874-SG

Corrosion damage in the buried wellhead equipment and surface casing immediately below the landing base is a major concern in the onshore fields. Initial schedule inspections in the past of the buried wellhead equipment reveals corrosion damage to the landing base, casing spools and surface casings. The damage were occurring in spite of an apparently successful in place cathodic protection program that has reduced the number of casing damage due to external corrosion.

New Coatings in Research vs Military Specified Coatings Used for Steel Structures

Product Number: 51324-21209-SG

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

Paints and coatings are commonly applied to military steel structures to enhance the durability, corrosion resistance, and protect raw materials. The Paint Technology Center, Technical Center of Expertise (TCX) consistently conducts research and gathers performance data of coating systems new and old for military and civil work infrastructure applications. In this experiment the novel and currently specified coatings were exposed to UV/condensation, salt fog, and low temperature conditions within the laboratory. The performance data collected within this environment show the disparities between these coatings by comparing both nondestructive and destructive testing data. The desire is to present images and comparative graphs of the coatings performance and provide possible application of new coatings analyzed based on the results. It is our goal that the research conducted aids in the acceptance of novel coatings into the existing military coating specification and guides as well as informs new technology development in industry.

New Development in Thermal Insulation Coatings

Product Number: 51324-21011-SG

Author: Nicole Rakers

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

In chemical process industries, oil and gas, and petrochemical plants, it is common practice to use mechanical insulation such as mineral wool or calcium silicate and metal jacketing on heated tanks, piping, and related equipment as a means of either personal protection or improved energy retention. These traditional insulation systems can become saturated with moisture, leading to significant reduction in ability to thermally insulate as well as creating an environment that may cause an increase in corrosion under insulation. To combat these issues, asset owners have also been using spray-on insulation coatings. However, these are often limited in film thickness and temperature resistance and require a primer. Recent coating technology has been developed to address these challenges currently faced in the field. This paper will discuss some of the coating’s improved properties including hydrophobicity, higher film thickness, improved temperature resistance, and direct-to-metal corrosion protection. These properties provide an asset owner the means to spray apply thermal insulation at higher operating temperatures in less coats and with better long-term protection against corrosion of the asset.

Publication Date: 2012

$20.00

Two component spray polyurea systems are fast reacting and provide quick return-to-service coatings. Aromatic polyurea coatings have good physical properties but discolor upon exposure to UV light due to the aromatic content. Some of these aromatic systems have been coated with an aliphatic topcoat to provide the desired color stability.

New Developments in Fluorourthane Coatings for Bridges

Product Number: 41216-995-SG

Author: Robert Parker, Kristen Blankenship

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Fluorourethane coatings based on FEVE, fluoroethylene vinyl ether chemistry, have been used globally for over 30 years. This technology has a proven record of outstanding performance against exposure to the elements and has been used in applications ranging from aerospace to architectural structures. Recently, the bridge market has taken notice of this high performance, especially in harsh marine environments. Resistance to degradation by UV light is important to the longevity of a bridge structure, but it could be argued that corrosion resistance is the key performance indicator for a protective topcoat.

New Developments in High Productivity Cladding Process and in LNG application.

Product Number: MPWT19-15283

Author: Torchiana ing. Paolo

Publication Date: 2019

$0.00

Esab is always committed to technological innovations to support its customers in improving productivity and quality in their production units. This high focus has recently brought to the market an innovative cladding solution.
It is about the Integrated Cold Electrode for SAW process, launched in 2012 for joining application only. However, taking the benefits of its high flexibility and of the continuous development around it, it is now also possible to use it for cladding applications. It delivers the required weld deposit chemistry in a single layer solution by combining different wire grades with very low dilution.
Esab also has a long experience in LNG application, where a dedicated flux is well known all over the world. It has been designed some years ago to reduce crack susceptibility when NiCrMo wires are used to weld 9%Ni plates.

New Developments in Surface Profile Measurement for Blast Cleaned Surfaces

Product Number: 41213-746-SG

Author: J F Fletcher

Publication Date: 2013

$20.00

When protective coatings are to be applied to structures, it is important that the surface is clean and dry if premature failure of the coating is to be prevented and the full coating service life achieved. In many situations for both new build and repair of structures, blast cleaning of the surface is required to remove contamination and to create an anchor pattern to enhance the adhesion of the coating system to the substrate.
