Advanced Technology in Field Applied Thermoplastics for Corrosion: Protection Superior to Thermoset Coating Systems

Advanced Technology in Field Applied Thermoplastics for Corrosion: Protection Superior to Thermoset Coating Systems
Available for download

The control, mitigation and prevention of corrosion in environments ranging from mildly corrosive to severe atmospheric conditions to underground exposures (such as pipelines) to chemical spill and fume exposures has long been focused on the use of thermosetting polymers such as epoxies, polyesters, vinyl esters and urethanes. For the most part these materials have worked reasonably well in applications such as structural steel and equipment coatings, architectural paints, vessel linings, concrete coatings, secondary containment linings, and floor toppings.

The control, mitigation and prevention of corrosion in environments ranging from mildly corrosive to severe atmospheric conditions to underground exposures (such as pipelines) to chemical spill and fume exposures has long been focused on the use of thermosetting polymers such as epoxies, polyesters, vinyl esters and urethanes. For the most part these materials have worked reasonably well in applications such as structural steel and equipment coatings, architectural paints, vessel linings, concrete coatings, secondary containment linings, and floor toppings. However, these thermosetting materials also have major limitations such as service temperature, lack of tolerance for a wide range of field conditions including humidity, temperature and substrate preparation, cure time, ease of repair, and related installation issues. Thermoplastics have known advantages over thermosets in water resistance, proper particle distribution, controlled film thickness and integrity and substrate encapsulation.  Heretofore, field application of thermoplastics has been impractical and only marginally successful in a few limited applications. Development of new technology in the areas of thermal bonding agents and more dimensionally stable thermoplastic powder coating materials has resulted in significantly increased potential for use in field applications in a wide variety of uses.

Adhesion Tests and Failure Modes Study on Structural Steel Coatings

Product Number: 41213-771-SG
Author: Wei Zheng, John J. Myers
Publication Date: 2013

Pull-off adhesion behaviors of 15 coating systems in three groups were studied utilizing test method ASTM D4541. Three groups of coating systems included coating systems with organic or inorganic zinc-rich primers, polymeric polyurea coatings, and overcoating systems applied on an existing coating system.

Generic descriptions of a coating material does not always ensure that it will perform in the CUI service. Testing and acceptance criteria will help owners to ensure that specific coating materials can provide service as required in industrial CUI environments. The intent of these test procedures is not to rank coatings, but test and accept coatings for use in specifications for actual application.

A New Protocol for Evaluating the Effectiveness of Coatings Used to Reduce Corrosion of Steel Structures

Details of a new protocol for evaluating the effectiveness of coatings to reduce corrosion of steel structures is presented in this paper. Basic concepts of accelerated testing specified in American Society for Testing Materials (ASTM) standards and recent research investigations were used to develop a procedure that can provide conclusive results within 2400 hours of exposure as compared to more than 5000 hours in current practices.
