"Mold And Mildew Investigation and Testing of Navy Interior Coatings"

Product Number: 51323-18804-SG

Author: Patrick Cassidy, Jason Lee, Charles White, Michael Kibler

Publication Date: 2023

$20.00

Mold and mildew growth within Navy ships is a significant issue across the fleet. To investigate this issue the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) and the Strategic Environmental
Research and Development Program (SERDP) funded an investigation into the prevalence of mold in the fleet, with the end goal of developing solutions to remediate and prevent future mold growth. Thus
far, mold and coating data was collected from 26 ships across 6 geographic locations. These mold samples have been analyzed to determine the most common species and highlight those that are toxigenic.

(Coating Application,Types & Characteristics) New SSPC Paint 47 Fluoropolymer Topcoat Standard for

Product Number: 13-COAT_DEC21

Author: Dr. Kurt Wood

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

Since the 1980s, fluoropolymer resin technologies have offered the possibility of a quantum improvement in topcoat decorative properties- gloss and color retention- compared to conventional acrylic and polyester resins. Specifiers of both protective and architectural restoration coatings systems have expressed a need for a new SSPC standard for field-applied fluoropolymer topcoats, particularly for bright and saturated colors.

(Coating Formulation) Coatings on the Edge of Forever

Product Number: 12-COAT_DEC21

Author: Carl Reed / Kat Coronado

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

A continuing problem with coatings applied to sharp edges of a structure is the corrosion that often develops at the apex of the edge. The conventional wisdom is that the reduction of film thickness, due to coating pulling away at the edge during the curing of the coating, is the primary cause for the onset of corrosion. This theory, however, is not necessarily correct, both from a mechanistic and practical point of view.

(Coating Formulation) Efficacy of Zinc Content in Sacrificial Protection of Coatings

Product Number: 44-COAT_DEC21

Author: Nicole Rakers / Mary Lyn Lim / Michael McCarthy / James Begley

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

Zinc rich coatings have long been used in the protective coatings industry as one of the primary means of steel substrate protection against corrosion. The primary protection mechanism has historically been galvanic sacrificial loss of zinc metal and the simultaneous formation of protective zinc oxides and salts. Various standards and customer specifications exist to ensure that the coating will provide the necessary corrosion protection for the life of the asset.

(Coating Formulation) Study of Corrosion Resistance For Blends of FEVE Fluoropolymer and Acrylic Re

Product Number: 45-COAT_DEC21

Author: Donald C. Lawson III

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

We studied the corrosion resistance for topcoat systems made using a solvent-borne 2K fluoroethylene vinyl ether (FEVE) polyol blended with different acrylic resins. The topcoats were applied over primed steel substrates. The primers consisted of zinc-rich (for 2-coat) and zinc-rich/epoxy mid-coat (for 3-coat) systems. Standard, salt fog (ASTM B 117), cyclic Prohesion (ASTM G85 Annex A5) and EIS (electrochemical impedance spectroscopy) test methods were used to determine corrosion resistance. The blended system performance was compared against FEVE, acrylic, polyurethane, and polysiloxanes controls.

(Concrete) Caveat Emptor! Preparing Cementitious Mortars to Support High-Performance Lining Systems

Product Number: 34-COAT_DEC21

Author: Vaughn O’Dea

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

Cementitious repair mortars are commonly used to rehabilitate deteriorated wastewater concrete infrastructure prior to the application of high-performance lining systems. These repair mortars occasionally receive a broom finish creating a “profiled” surface prior to the application of a trowel- or spray-applied protective lining system. Other recommendations require that that the cementitious mortars receive a blasted surface to impart a mechanical profile prior to topcoating with a similar lining system. In the following paper the author summarize the results of an investigation to quantitatively assess adhesion of a protective lining when applied to a broom finish surface verses a blasted surface.

(Concrete) Choosing the Correct Technology for Lining Concrete

Product Number: 36-COAT_DEC21

Author: Brian Huffman

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

The author will present on the various generic coatings technologies available for lining concrete and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each one. Discussion will include epoxy, polyurethane and polyurea technologies. The goal of the presentation will be to provide some guidance to the attendees on when is the right application to select each technology as part of a specification.

(Concrete) My “Poly” Has Bubbles: The Continued Challenge of Pinholes & Bugholes with Thick-Film Co

Product Number: 35-COAT_DEC21

Author: Dudley J. Primeaux II

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

With coating and lining of concrete, while it may seem like a simple, novel task, there are always challenges. Even though concrete may be one of the largest construction materials used today, it is a complex structural matrix that can be ever changing even in a single placement. The need for coating concrete to either waterproof, or extend the life of the structure is not new to our industry.

(Concrete) Relevant Testing When Coating Concrete Tanks and Structure

Product Number: 37-COAT_DEC21

Author: John Sierzega

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

Inspection has always been a hot topic when it comes to coatings projects. There are some substrates that can be harder to specify due to not knowing without knowing which testing is relevant to specify and properly inspect the substrate and surface after it is coated. Concrete is probably the number one substrate that is confusing. This paper will dive into the testing that is relevant when specifying coatings for concrete tanks and structures. Whether it is how to properly check film build or whether or not an ASTM test is relevant, this paper will clear the waters and make specifying coatings for concrete tanks and structures easier.

(Environmental Health & Safety) Asbestos on Concrete Bridges; Awareness, Compliance, Abatement

Product Number: 41-COAT_DEC21

Author: Gary Caldwell / Chris Lovelace

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

Asbestos-containing textured surfacing materials, as well as other types of asbestos containing materials, were historically applied in significant quantities to concrete bridges and other structures built as late as the early 1990’s. During renovation (surface preparation for overcoating or total coating removal and replacement) or demolition of bridges, just like buildings, there are specific regulatory requirements such as licensure, inspections, procedures and notifications that must be followed to avoid compliance violations, litigation and to avoid unwanted asbestos exposure to employees and the environment.

(Green Coatings) Novel Hydrolytically Stable Silane Additives for Improving the Performance of

Product Number: 99-COAT_DEC21

Author: Jacob Shevrin

Publication Date: 2021

$20.00

As global environmental regulations continue to tighten restrictions on VOC-containing coatings, the need for hydrolytically stable additives in waterborne coatings has never been greater. Alkoxysilanes are a class of widely used additives in the coatings industry, as they act as adhesion promoters between organic coatings and inorganic substrates. Given the high moisture sensitivity of alkoxysilanes, most silane additives rapidly undergo condensation in waterborne coatings, leading to gelling of waterborne coatings within the first few weeks or months on the shelf.
