Single-Component Polysiloxane Coating for Navy Topsides

Product Number: 41213-755-SG

Author: Erick Iezzi, James Martin, Paul Slebodnick, John Wegand, Edward Lemieux

Publication Date: 2013

$20.00

Silicone alkyds have been utilized by the Navy for over 50 years and remain the only single-component technology that is qualified under MIL-PRF-24635. Although the predominant coating in the Fleet, silicone alkyd coatings continue to provide poor color and gloss retention, poor chemical resistance, low hardness, slow cure times and limited cleanability to running rust.

Single-Component Polysiloxane: An Advanced Coating for Navy and Surface Topsides

Product Number: 41215-903-SG

Author: Erick Iezzi

Publication Date: 2015

$20.00

Silicone alkyds are single-component (1K) systems and do not require the mixing of components before application. These systems are easy for sailors to apply (via brush or roll), have an indefinite pot-life in a closed can, and will cure under harsh marine conditions, which are why these coatings have been utilized on the exterior topsides of Navy surface ships since the early 1960s. However, these “user friendly” coatings provide limited color and gloss retention, limited resistance to shipboard hydrocarbons, and limited resistance to staining from running rust and soot.

Situational Leadership

Product Number: 41211-612-SG

Author: Paul Hersey, Kenneth H. Blanchard

Publication Date: 2011

$20.00

Over the last few decades, people in the field of management have been involved in a search for the “best” style of leadership. Yet, the evidence from research clearly indicated that there is no single app-purpose leadership style. Successful leaders are those who can adapt their behavior to meet the demands of their unique situation.

Small Expense, Big Reward - The Impact and Value of Quality Assurance Testing of Coatings for Hydraulic Steel Structures

Product Number: 41216-958-SG

Author: Brooke A. Divan, Rebekah Wilson, Miranda Etchison

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Quality Assurance (QA) paint testing is an important obligation of any paint manufacturer and/or end user. Each year, hundreds of batches slotted to be applied on US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) hydraulic steel structures around the country are submitted to be tested at the Engineering Research Development Center, Construction Engineering Research Laboratory, Paint Technology Center (ERDC-CERL-PTC). A significant fraction of those samples fail.

Sol-Rec2: Recycle of Multicomponent, Multilayer Systems towards Sustainable Waste Management

Product Number: 51324-20837-SG

Recycling flexible packaging multi-materials such as blister packs and food packaging laminates is critical if we are to reduce the severe environmental effect of plastic waste. The purpose of the experimental work was to develop a series of non-toxic, stable, deep eutectic solvents (DES) and ionic liquids (ILs) for the separation and the recovery of polymer-aluminium laminates. Studies identified a number of DESs and ILs that could be used to successfully delaminate three common aluminium containing packaging laminates thereby enabling complete separation and recovery of the constituent plastic and aluminium layers. Analyses of the corrosion and/or dissolution behaviour of aluminium in the DESs and ILs found such effects to be limited towards the recyclability/uprecyclability of the aluminium.

Soluble Salt Contamination: Testing and Cleaning before Coating

Product Number: 51324-20827-SG

Author: Cortney Chalifoux; Alec Kraynak

Publication Date: 2024

$40.00

This paper focuses on the often-overlooked issue of soluble salt contamination testing and removal during surface preparation prior to coating application. Soluble salts, including chlorides, sulfates, and nitrates, left on the surface prior to coating application can lead to osmotic blistering, corrosion, and coating failures. Several standards provide methods to test for soluble salts. However, there is no industry consensus on acceptable contamination levels given the diversity of coating systems and environments. This paper serves as a guide intended to shed light on the specific issue of soluble salt contamination, particularly on carbon steel surfaces. By addressing the nuances and challenges posed by soluble salt contaminants, this paper aims to equip engineers and professionals in the field with the knowledge and tools necessary to navigate the complexities of surface preparation and ensure the integrity and longevity of coating systems on carbon steel surfaces.

Soluble Salt Determination Using the Saturated Filer paper Extraction Method

Product Number: 41214-819-SG

Author: JF Fletcher

Publication Date: 2014

$20.00

The determination of the concentration of soluble salts on a surface prior to the application of paint is a key inspection task for most protective coating processes. The entrapment of soluble salts, particularly on a steel surface can lead to premature coating adhesion failure and corrosion cells being established.

Soluble Salt Measurement: Are We Measuring it Correctly?

Product Number: 51217-026-SG

Author: David J. Barnes

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

Cleanliness of a metal surface prior to coating is imperative, just ask the paint manufacturers. Whilst there are several measurement techniques available to determine the level of soluble salts on a substrate prior to coating, Bresle is still considered by many as the “gold standard”.
