Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) is a very serious problem impacting the oil and gas, petrochemical, power and heavy industries. Due to the high costs associated with CUI, many industries have begun abandoning conventional jacket insulation. Recent advancements in trade association standards have helped engineers select, apply and inspect different types of insulative coatings in lieu of conventional jacket insulation.

This report describes the development of, a new lab test method, gives details of set-up and compares test data to thermal modeling and to an ASTM test that measures thermal conductivity.
HISTORICAL DOCUMENT. The purpose of this NACE International test method is to standardize the testing methods and conditions used to determine acceptable temperature limits for personnel protection for insulative coatings in accordance with ASTM C1055. The temperature limits determined when using this test method are specific for each coating tested at a particular thickness and substrate temperature. A standardized test method can validate the temperature limits of a coating used for personnel protection, and enable direct comparison of its performance. This test method is intended for use by facility owners, engineers, health and safety specialists, coatings manufacturers, and other interested parties.
The purpose of this AMPP test method is to standardize the testing methods and conditions used to determine the substrate and surface temperature limits for different thicknesses of insulative coatings used for personnel protection to be in compliance with ASTM C1055. The temperature limits determined when using this test method are specific for each coating tested at a particular thickness and substrate temperature. A standardized test method can validate the temperature limits of a coating used for personnel protection and enable direct comparison of its performance to other commercially available coatings. This test method is intended for use by facility owners, engineers, health and safety specialists, coatings manufacturers, and other interested parties.
HISTORICAL DOCUMENT. The purpose of this NACE International standard test method is to specify test methods and test conditions used to evaluate thermal properties, insulation values, and performance/integrity before and after thermal aging of insulative coatings. Testing for corrosion resistance is not included in this test method.
The primary intent of this standard is to specify test conditions that would give a baseline evaluation – one that would allow direct performance comparisons between different insulative coatings. This standard is designed to have practical test procedures with limited test conditions. It also includes Appendix A (nonmandatory) which describes hot plate designs, and Appendix B (nonmandatory) which describes an alternative thermal conductivity test design.
