Improving Coating Performance by Using a Novel Polymeric Adhesion Promoter Technology

Product Number: 41216-949-SG

Author: Martin Muth, Andreas Freytag, René Nagelsdiek, Ronald Brashear

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

When coatings are applied to substrates as e.g., metal, the adhesion of the cured paint is a critical parameter for the final performance of the paint film. The adhesion of the paint to the substrate influences many properties of the paint, which including visual appearance, anticorrosive performance, flexibility, resistance against scribing and scratching, delamination, blistering and many more. Many actions can be taken to influence and improve the adhesion of a coating to a substrate.

Induction Heating Technique for Cold Weather Pre-Heating and Post-Curing or Liquid Epoxy Coatings on Gas Pipeline Girth Welds

Product Number: 51216-022-SG

Author: Bruce Wiskel, J. Peter Ault

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

During the winter of 2013-2014, Northern California experienced unusually cold temperatures (below 40°F). These low temperatures delayed Pacific Gas & Electric Company (PG&E) coating operations on new pipelines. Since liquid epoxy coatings capable of being applied at, or which fully cure at, temperatures below 50°F were not approved, PG&E chose to control the environment using small enclosures over the application area. This approach proved to be expensive and time consuming, so a novel method of pipeline surface temperature control was necessary to allow application of liquid epoxies at low ambient temperatures.

Industry Standards: Are You Current?

Product Number: 41216-955-SG

Author: William D. Corbett

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Coating specifications frequently reference industry standards from organizations such as SSPC, ASTM, ISO and NACE. While specifications may reference a specific version or “year,” many simply state, “the latest version of the standard applies.” Many standards writing organizations require a review of the content of their documents every 5-years (or more frequently), and updates/revisions to standards can and oftentimes do occur. And new standards are developed and published to fill voids when a need for a standard is identified.

Inspecting Hot-Dip Galvanized Steel

Product Number: 41216-960-SG

Author: Bernardo Duran

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Engineers, architects, DOTs, and other specifiers use hot dip galvanizing to provide corrosion protection to steel and iron in many industries, including transportation and highway, parking garages, bridges, structural, agricultural, petrochemical, and original equipment manufacturing. To ensure continued corrosion protection and structural integrity in these industries, it is necessary to properly inspect the galvanizing.

Institutionalizing Corrosion Prevention and Control in the USAF

Product Number: 41216-990-SG

Author: Jeffrey K. Nusser, Jeffery T. Stricker, Darryl J. Stimson

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

The U.S. Air Force will never eliminate corrosion in aerospace systems, but synchronized efforts can help sustain positive trends in conserving maintenance dollars, increasing system availability, and reducing corrosion-related mishaps. The AF Corrosion Control and Prevention Executive established an aggressive goal to reduce corrosion’s effects by 20% by 2025: a 20% reduction in corrosion maintenance costs; a 20% reduction in non-available hours (NAH) due to corrosion repairs; and a 20% reduction in corrosion-related safety mishaps.

It’s All About Adhesion

Product Number: 51216-016-SG

Author: Guerman Vainblat, Timur Kolchinskiy

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

A long-term project such as the current Brooklyn Bridge Rehabilitation Program, known as Brooklyn Bridge Contract 6, presents a great opportunity to collect vast amounts of data and records relating to the total coating replacement on a historic landmark. On any project, especially one of this scope, the project team has to deal with many obstacles, both expected and unexpected, and significant unknowns.

Leak Mitigation of Dynamic Cracks in Concrete

Product Number: 41216-982-SG

Author: Charlie Lerman

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Concrete will crack – that is a fact. When cracks appear, they are dynamic or static, and structural or non-structural. If the crack is static, non-structural, and does not leak, epoxies are great to restore design strength. However, since concrete constantly shrinks, expands, and often leaks, the use of a flexible polyurethane resin to permanently seal active leaks is the optimum choice to create a leak-free environment.

Measurement of Internal Coating Stresses of MIL-PRF-23377 Top Coated with MIL-PRF-8528

Product Number: 41216-954-SG

Author: Devin Clark, Richard C. Ferguson, James W. Rawlins

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

Internal coatings stress (ICS) develops in coatings applied to a rigid substrates. During drying, volume changes due to solvent loss and/or cure induces stresses in the films. Differences in the thermal expansion coefficients of the coating and substrate also affect the ICS. ICS affects the interfacial adhesion and results in delamination once the stress exceeds the force of adhesion.

Measuring Sodium Chloride, Salt and Soluble Contaminants

Product Number: 41216-964-SG

Author: Nico Frankhuizen

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

This paper deals with the issue of surface contaminates analyses presently available on the market. The amount of variations of analyses and more important statements of the results cause great problems on the market. Described in the paper are not only the analyses possible, but also the interpretations belonging to them. However, salt measurements are used worldwide, its basics often appear to be a worldwide mystery. This paper should clarify the most common made mistakes.

Modern Corrosion Testing: From Traditional Salt Spray Test to the Latest Innovative Methods with Advanced Environmental Controls

Product Number: 41216-962-SG

Author: Sean Fowler, Jeffery Quill

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

A century ago, automotive companies developed the laboratory salt spray corrosion test method standardized in ASTM B117. Even then they knew this quality control test did not produce realistic exposures. Wet-dry cyclic tests provided modest improvements in correlation and have been used in architectural applications for many years.

Moisture Testing and Inspecting for Concrete Floors to Receive Coatings

Product Number: 41216-991-SG

Author: Brian O’Farrell

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

The importance of moisture testing of concrete floors cannot be stressed enough. Moisture is a leading cause of coatings failures on concrete floors. There are many ways moisture can affect floor coatings on concrete. Moisture testing alone is not sufficient enough at detecting all of the potential problems. Inspecting a building prior to performing any tests will provide a much clearer picture of the potential problems moisture in both liquid and vapor form can pose.
