New Splash Zone Sulfur Containing Polyamidoamine Epoxy Type Coating

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.

Corrosion protection of large structures such us wind turbines or offshore platforms operating in corrosive seawater environment is usually provided by cathodic protection (CP) and/or protective coatings. However those methods have some limitations. Organic coatings without CP can provide protection to steel substrate only when they remain intact whereas sacrificial anodes can considerably increase the overall mass of the protected structure and have to be replaced periodically. Moreover sacrificial anodes are only effective under submerged conditions and don’t protect the structure under alternating wetting and drying condition so-called “splash zone” which is particularly corrosive environment due to constant splashing of highly aerated seawater UV radiation and increased concentration of seawater constituents during drying. Furthermore confined volume of electrolyte easy access to oxygen and atmospheric pollutant deposited on the metals’ surface lead to more severe corrosion in this region than in the submerged zone.An alternative corrosion mitigation method is application of thermally sprayed metallic coatings such as thermally sprayed aluminium (TSA). TSA affords long-term and maintenance-free protection to steel substrate in two ways. Firstly when intact it acts as a barrier to the corrosive environment and secondly it provides sacrificial protection by working as an evenly distributed anode which preserves steel in case of a damage of a coating. Moreover large operating temperature range high resistance to mechanical damage and low corrosion rate in ocean water make it a perfect corrosion prevention method for offshore applications.One of the characteristic features of thermally sprayed coatings is porosity which is filled with corrosion products when the corrosion progresses. To delay the self-corrosion of the protective coating application of sealers is recommended.In this work the behaviour of several arc-sprayed metal coatings is investigated under full artificial seawater (ASTM D1141) immersion and compared with simulated splash zone conditions under droplets of artificial seawater. Effectiveness of TSA coatings is evaluated using electrochemical techniques and corrosion products are examined. The effect of novel sealers containing nanomaterials is also assessed.
