For several decades, engineered coatings have been used to protect steel from corrosion. Many formulas were made and tested for their ability to prevent corrosion. Changes in the formulas would include different resins, pigments, solvents and additives. In this paper, we will talk about three specific pigments, which are also commonly referred to as reinforcing pigments.
For several decades, engineered coatings have been used to protect steel from corrosion. Many formulas were made and tested for their ability to prevent corrosion. Changes in the formulas would include different resins, pigments, solvents and additives. In this paper, we will talk about three specific pigments, which are also commonly referred to as reinforcing pigments. These reinforcing pigments are micaceous iron oxide, aluminum flake and glass flake. These fillers when used in high performance coatings will improve various performance properties. Improved performance properties would include film strength, flexibility, impermeability, temperature resistance, abrasion resistance, edge retention, cathodic protection, chemical resistance and corrosion resistance.
This paper provides a review of key items to consider in coating wood. The most important considerations are ensuring a sound wood substrate surface, elimination of moisture as a problem, adequate surface preparation, and the proper choice of coatings. Coatings for wood can be categorized as film-forming or penetrating finishes. This paper expands on a recent related article published in the Journal of Architectural Coatings.

Significant quality control/quality assurance data is collected during industrial coating projects. Too often this data is surveyed for compliance with the contract requirements and then relegated to a file cabinet, never to be seen again. The paper highlights the types of coating inspection data collected and various “value-added” analyses which may be performed.
In California, local air districts have regulations that limit the volatile organic compound (VOC) content of architectural coatings. The California Air Resources Board (ARB) provides assistance to local districts when developing regulations. This assistance includes developing Suggested Control Measures which serve as model rules for local districts. ARB also provides assistance by conducting periodic surveys of coating manufacturers to gather data on all of the architectural coatings sold in California during a particular year.
