Two-Coat Polyaspartic Urethane Coatings Protect Virginia Steel Bridges for Over a Decade

Two-Coat Polyaspartic Urethane Coatings Protect Virginia Steel Bridges for Over a Decade
Available for download

In 2003 Connecticut Department of Transportation (DOT) conducted a study to quantify the throughput and cost savings potential of a PAS two-coat system versus a three-coat system. The study showed that a PAS two-coat system had a 31% increase in productivity and direct cost savings of approximately $6 per square foot, with indirect cost savings of $18 per square foot when including the benefits of reduced traffic congestion.17 PAS two-coat systems utilize a zinc-rich primer for galvanic protection; the epoxy and polyurethane layers are replaced by a high-build PAS topcoat.

High Productivity and Performance Polyaspartic DTM and Two-Coat Systems

Product Number: 41214-870-SG
Author: Todd Williams , Ahren Olson
Publication Date: 2014

These case studies are presented demonstrating the cost savings and performance of one-coat direct-to-metal (DTM) and two-coat polyaspartic exterior coatings of three industrial maintenance applications involving hopper railcars, bridges, and an exposed steel beam superstructure. In each example, the rapid cure time of the polyaspartic coating provided increased productivity to complement its documented high performance.

Polyaspartic coatings can offer excellent performance characteristics typically expected of SSPC Specification Number 36, Level 3, for Aliphatic Polyurethane Topcoats. In addition, polyaspartates will pass an industry standard for corrosion protection in medium corrosivity environments direct to metal. These features offer the typical industrial maintenance customer high performance for gloss and color retention, while reducing application time and costs.

Polyasparartic Ester Finish Coats - A New Generation

Product Number: 41208-440-SG
Author: Mike O’Donoghue, Ron Garrett, V.J. Datta, Justin Dunn
Publication Date: 2008
$20.00

Recent advances in the realm of polyaspartic ester finish coat technology have led to significant improvements in their aesthetic and corrosion resistance properties. Of particular interest is an initial comparison of the aesthetic properties of older and new generation polyaspartic ester finishes with both polyurethanes and isocyanate-free polysiloxane finishes.
