Quality assurance of coatings on steel water pipes commonly relies on tensile pull-off measurements of the coating-steel adhesion, according to ASTM D4541. These tests are performed by adhering a metal ‘dolly’ to the coating with an adhesive, then scoring around the dolly circumference, through the coating down to the steel surface, before recording the stress necessary to pull the dolly (and coating) away from the steel pipe.
This paper will discuss utilizing temporary dehumidification and climate control equipment to reduce corrosion levels during the installation of coatings and linings applications; the science of Psychrometrics, the science behind dehumidification, and discuss how the components interact on a coatings project.
Anticorrosive pigments are key compounds in coating formulations to protect the metallic substrates on which coatings are applied. As these products are subjected to an increasing demand for more sustainable products, new ranges of zinc-free anticorrosive pigments are being developed.
This paper builds a case for trained, certified commercial painting contractors and applicators. It discusses SSPC: The Society for Protective Coatings’ (SSPC’s) initiatives and progress in standards development for Commercial Contractor Certification and Commercial Certified Application Specialists.
The performance of coatings applied to cementitious building walls is a function of both the coating itself and the integrity of the building wall assembly.
Polyaspartic coatings have been used for years in high-performance industrial protective applications such as bridge infrastructure, water and wastewater, and transportation. More recently, these types of coatings have begun to migrate into commercial and architectural applications due to end users’ desires to protect their architectural infrastructure while maintaining a high degree of aesthetics and beauty.
Cavitation erosion occurring on the rudder, which is induced by cavities from a rotating propeller due to the local pressure decrease of the fluid, has adverse effect on the operation of the vessel. Cavitation resistant paints have been highly considered to prevent the rudder from eroding, because of its relatively easy application and low working cost compared to other preventing methods.
The law mandating the DoD Corrosion Prevention and Control Program (CPCP) includes a long-term strategy requirement to “collect, review, validate, and distribute information on proven methods and products that are relevant to the prevention of corrosion.”
The State of Florida spends millions of dollars to mitigate corrosion and paint existing bridge structures each year. Since tourism is a big contributor to the State’s economy, it is of high importance to maintain these structures in a condition that is pleasing to the eye in order to provide a pleasant welcome for visitors to the Sunshine State.
Moisture problems are prevalent all over North America, almost independent of climate. With an understanding of moisture in concrete and the various test methods available to quantify that moisture, simple strategies to mitigate moisture problems can be employed. But a strategy cannot be employed if the moisture problem is never quantified. This presentation identifies the various types of moisture issues present day in and day out and outlines the methods available to discover hidden moisture conditions.
