09022 How Not to Perform a Failure Analysis

Product Number: 51300-09022-SG

ISBN: 09022 2009 CP

Author: Mark S. Schilling and Randy Nixon

Publication Date: 2009

$20.00

This paper discusses a classic example where the facts surrounding the failure of a lining system were ignored and undue reliance was placed on laboratory analysis. This “blind faith” in analytical data without a sound causal theory caused the failure analysts to disregard or overlook the obvious.

2-Component Polyurethane Topcoats - Formulating Variables Affecting Weathering Performance

Product Number: 41208-399-SG

Author: Edward P. Squiller, Kurt Best

Publication Date: 2008

$20.00

Weathering performance of 2-component polyurethane topcoats used in corrosion protection applications, e.g. bridges, marine, stadiums, etc., is discussed with emphasis on some key formulating variables. Variables such as isocyanate index and resin selection are compared in an accelerated weathering study using various polyurethane topcoats. The results are referenced to SSPC polyurethane coating specifications which are often used in the industry to define performance criteria.

51317--9637-Non-Metallic Liners for Dense Slurry (Oil Sands) Applications

Product Number: 51317--9637-SG

ISBN: 9637 2017 CP

Author: Duane Serate

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

This paper summarizes the experimental findings, discusses the effects of a typical bitumen-water slurry solution on the wear performance of polyurethanes and neoprenes and proposes a mathematical relationship between Coriolis (low stress, low angle abrasion & scouring) wear to the relevant physical properties in the virgin state of polyurethanes and neoprenes.

A 30 Year Case History of Polyurethane Thick Film Coatings in Civil Engineering Applications

Product Number: 41205-194-SG

Author: Adrian J Pike

Publication Date: 2005

$20.00

Extreme temperatures, rain, and freeze thaw cycles can all attack structures causing corrosion and therefore high maintenance costs. The UK DOT ensures maintenance is kept to a minimum by protecting its bridge stock using an effective waterproof coating which meets the exacting standards specified in BD47. A number of polyurethane based waterproofing systems have now met this standard. The inherent properties, ease of installation and long-term protection offered by polyurethane systems make them extremely popular amongst client authorities across the world.

Biodegradable Antifouling Coating

Product Number: MPWT19-15293

Author: Mohammad Mizanur Rahman

Publication Date: 2019

$0.00

Due to the regulations of toxic biocidal products in marine environments, the development of nontoxic antifouling (AF) coatings has become required. The development of nontoxic antifouling formulations implies the use of ingredients (such as: polymers, additives and pigments) that are devoid of toxicity towards marine environments. In this regard, erodible coatings, based on biodegradable polymer, are used to respond to this problem. Recently, polyurethane (PU) has been adopted into antifouling coating due to its ability to migrate the certain functional groups which resist the attachment of fouling. Biodegradation of PU can accelerate the erodible properties which ultimately improve the antifouling properties. In this study, a series of biodegradable PU coatings was formulated by tuning biodegradable polyol. The antifouling performance was evaluated after certain intervals.

Biodegradable SPC Polyurethane Coating

Product Number: 51320-14721-SG

Author: Mohammad Mizanur Rahman

Publication Date: 2020

$20.00

Self-polishing coatings (SPC) are widely being used in marine structures to protect metals from fouling. After restrictions on using toxic metals, coating industry are seeking environmentally-friendly SPC coatings that maintain their performance over extended periods. Unfortunately, most of the commercial SPC coatings contain different toxic materials, besides their performance is inadequate to prevent fouling under adverse conditions. The main mechanism of SPC coating is to facilitate the continuous renewal of the surface and the release of active compound via a hydrolysis reaction or an ion exchange reaction with seawater. In this study, polyurethane (PU) SPC coatings were synthesized by in-situ polymerization using biodegradable polyol. The polishing rate of coating was determined from the reduction in dry film thickness after artificial seawater immersion under a dynamic condition. The fouling resistance of coatings was considered after certain interval.

Case History: Decorative Yet Functional Floor Coating at the Energy Innovation Center

Product Number: 51216-002-SG

Author: Steven Reinstadtler

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

The Energy Innovation Center’s approximately 80-year-old concrete floor had significant divots and was badly spalled and cracked. The concrete floor, often referred to as “The Racetrack” due to its oval shape, serves as the main hallway to a newly renovated technology hub and needed significant structural and aesthetic work. The re-finished floor had to offer durable functionality as well as blend into the neo-industrial look of the re-tasked building.
