Solventborne 2-pack (2K) epoxy-amine coating systems have for many years been commonly used to formulate high performance protective coatings such as metal anti-corrosion primers and concrete floor coatings. However, due to the concerns linked to their high volatile organic compounds (VOC) contents, waterborne alternatives with comparable performance are needed.

This presentation will compare and contrast several anti-corrosive tidal zone coatings developed under a Navy SBIR program. Requirements for the coating included no VOC’s, surface tolerance to chlorides and water, fast cure to avoid washout by tides and waves, and thick build properties. Various trials of the material on dock sheet pilings and cooling tower fallout zones will be illustrated as well as accelerated lab test data.

On October 4, 2011, SSPC held the inaugural meeting of a new committee developed to address commercial coatings and flooring issues. The committee is called, “C3 Commercial Coating Committee (Architectural, Commercial, Institutional).” The committee agreed to address five topic areas: field cleaning and painting, paint materials, flooring, thin film air/vapor barriers on Concrete Masonry Unit (CMU), and commercial contractor certification. Key concerns in each of the topic areas were identified which resulted in the following scopes and work activities.

New Super-Austenitic Grade Alloy 35Mo (UNS N08935) with Excellent Corrosion Properties for Refinery and Petrochemical Industry

Product Number: MECC23-20125-SG

Author: Johan Salwén; Barinder Ghai

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

The super-austenitic grade Alloy 35Mo has recently been developed and already been installed in shell-and- tube heat exchangers globally. The grade has shown excellent results in different laboratory tests. However, the grade must also be tested in industrial environments, which will take some time until results can been obtained.

New Synergistic Combination of Additives for the Localized Corrosion Prevention of Capillary and Umbilical Materials during Chemical Injection

Product Number: 51319-13058-SG

Author: Carlos Menendez

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

The compatibility of neat chemicals when exposed to capillary and umbilical materials during injection is key to the smooth operation of chemical treatment programs in the oilfield and can be catastrophic if a failure occurred in the umbilical string during deepwater operations. The requirement of low viscosity for chemical injection through capillary strings and umbilicals make methanol the solvent of choice in many cases. Products formulated with methanol that contain chlorides and a low amount of water (less than 5 wt %) frequently hinder the ability of stainless steels and corrosion resistant alloys to repassivate. This work describes the development of a synergistic combination of two additives that dramatically improve both the breakdown and the repassivation potentials of such materials like 316L stainless steel and Duplex 2205. Most of the experiments were conducted using cyclic potentiodynamic polarization (CPP) on neat chemicals and verified using long-term neat chemical exposures to various materials to verify the CPP results.

New Test Method for Determining Wear Characteristics of Coating and Rod Guide Materials for Artificial Lift Applications

Product Number: 51319-12971-SG

Author: Robert Lauer

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

The use of ASTM 4060 Tabor Abrasor Testing has long been the standard for comparing the wear characteristics of different coating systems. This has been done with standard impregnated rubber disks to allow for the industry to look across companies and compare the abrasion resistance of different products. With different coating systems gaining acceptance into artificial lift well applications a desire for a similar test method that allows for evaluating the wear of coating on coating rod guide on coating and rod guide on liner has arisen. This paper will outline the development of a modified test protocol for ASTM 4060 to allow for comparible testing of different polymeric materials under defined repeatable conditions.

New Thermal Management Raw Materials Platform Gives Flexibility to Develop Next Generation Thermal Insulation Coatings (TIC) with Improved Performance

Product Number: 51324-20913-SG

Author: Gary Fisher

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

Coating industry trends has driven increased use and interest to develop more efficient and durable thermal insulative coatings. The key areas for this expansion are to reduce corrosion under insulation, increase occupational safety and reduce energy loss. Key features of these water-based coatings are low thermal conductivity, high hydrophobicity and adhesion along with an emerging interest to have greater heat resistance and stability. This paper will introduce a new water-based silicone hybrid resin to accompany the two novel microporous composite granules; one with high thermal insulative efficiency and the other, a pure hydrophobic synthetic silica pearl shaped filler to optimize thermal insulation efficiency as well as offering mechanical stability and reduced cracking in these highly filled coatings. The new platform offers the formulator options to leverage all new technologies together or separately when a compatible binder is needed to increase thermal heat stability and flame-retardant performance. Coatings and formulating details will be highlighted with thermal degradation of binders, surface temperature comparison for “Safe Touch” coatings, thermal conductivity (Lambda - mW/mK), contact angle measurements along with fire retardance test and direct flame testing using various thermal insulation fillers.

New Two-Stage Corrosion Protection System Extends the Life of Concrete Structures

Product Number: 51319-13011-SG

Author: David Whitmore

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

Corrosion of reinforcing steel is a leading cause of concretedeterioration such as spalling cracking and delamination of reinforced concrete structures.This paper describes a new self-powered two stage anode system used to control corrosion in reinforced concrete structures. This two-stage system combines the high level performance of an impressed current cathodic protection system (ICCP) with the long-term maintenance-free capabilities of an alkali-activated galvanic cathodic prevention system (GCP).Impressed current and galvanic corrosion protection systems are beneficial in extending the service life ofchloride contaminated and damaged concrete structures. ICCP systems are typically powered by an outside DC power source such as a transformer/rectifier and can provide a lifetime of corrosion protection if suitably maintained. Galvanic systems use metals such as zinc that are more electronegative than steel in concrete. Galvanic systems are often used when simplicity is desired as there is no power supply involved and maintenance is minimal.This single-unit second generation hybrid system does not require complex wiring or an external DC power supply. Once installed the anode automatically provides an initial phase of high charge density that passivates active corrosion (Stage 1). The anode automatically switches to provide long-term maintenance-free galvanic protection (Stage 2) when the impressed current stage is complete.As a result this self-powered two-stage system provides a long-term maintenance-free corrosion protection alternative for reinforced concrete structures.

Corrosion’s destructive effects on critical steel infrastructure have costly economic and security
implications for the United States. According to a NACE International report from 2001, the annual
corrosion costs in the United States industrial sector were $47.9 billion per year, with the largest portion
stemming from the maintenance of critical utilities such as gas, water, electric, and telecommunications. Catastrophic failure due to corrosion jeopardizes the resilience of critical utilities, risking the interruption of service to millions and creates weak-points the nation’s homeland security.
