This is the final paper in a series of papers that discusses weathering performance of 2-component (2K) polyurethane topcoats used in corrosion protective coatings applications, e.g., bridges, marine, stadiums, etc., with emphasis on the key formulating variables affecting performance. Variables such as pigment volume concentration (PVC), polyisocyanate index, and polyol selection, are compared in accelerated and natural weathering tests of various polyurethane formulations. Laboratory and commercial topcoat formulas are used to illustrate the raw material choices and how weathering performance plays out in both QUV-A and natural Florida exposure scenarios. The results are compared using SSPC Paint Specification No. 36.1

(Inspection) What Do You Really Need to Know to be a Good Coatings Inspector?

Product Number: 60-COAT_DEC21
Author: William D. Corbett
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

The role of a Coating Inspector has evolved considerably over the past few decades, and the responsibilities have increased over what used to be a rather straightforward job: to verify that surface preparation and coating application meet the project specification requirements. Today there are week-long or multi-week basic and advanced coating inspection courses, specialty courses that are industry-specific (e.g., bridge, nuclear), courses that are substrate-specific (e.g., concrete coatings inspection) and even coating-specific (e.g., inspection of thermal spray coatings).

(Coating Formulation) Corrosion Resistance Comparison of Zinc-Rich Epoxy With Reduced Zinc Levels

Product Number: 46-COAT_DEC21
Author: Mary Roley
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

Zinc-rich coatings have long been known to provide excellent corrosion resistance in highly corrosive environments, in general,inorganic zincs for new construction and organic zincs for maintenance. A recent trend has been toward zinc-rich coatings with reduced levels of zinc dust. An SSPC committee formed to revise SSPC Paint 29, Zinc Dust Sacrificial Primer, Performance Based, to reference performance only, removing reference to minimum zinc dust level.

(Coating Formulation) Coatings on the Edge of Forever

Product Number: 12-COAT_DEC21
Author: Carl Reed / Kat Coronado
Publication Date: 2021
$20.00

A continuing problem with coatings applied to sharp edges of a structure is the corrosion that often develops at the apex of the edge. The conventional wisdom is that the reduction of film thickness, due to coating pulling away at the edge during the curing of the coating, is the primary cause for the onset of corrosion. This theory, however, is not necessarily correct, both from a mechanistic and practical point of view.
