The corrosion process that causes metal degradation is natural. The metal and its structure corrode with time. The corrosion rate is usually faster in specific corrosive environments.
Polyurethane (PU) coatings have a wide demand in industry and are used for the protection of metal, concrete and wood structures. However, PU coatings face challenges in regard to circular economy concepts. Although waterborne solvent formulation techniques as well as naturally derived monomers are compatible with a circular economy, PU coatings possess a strong barrier. In this study, a series of PU coatings were prepared using water as the main solvent, and the polyol and chain extender monomers used were prepared from natural resources. The synthesized PU coating showed UV resistance, fire retardancy and corrosion protection. The exposed PU coating was collected and used with Portland cement.

Most cured epoxy resins provide excellent mechanical strength and toughness as well as outstanding chemical, moisture, and corrosion resistance. They also have good thermal, adhesive, and electrical properties, no volatiles emissions, low shrinkage upon cure and dimensional stability1. This unique combination of properties coupled with outstanding formulating versatility and reasonable costs, have gained epoxy resins wide acceptance as materials of choice for a multitude of protective coatings applications.
The chemical and radioactive waste at the Hanford Site is currently stored in 131 single-shell tanks and 27 double-shell tanks (DSTs). The DSTs were built between 1968 and 1986, and each has a capacity of about 1 million gallons. Figure 1 is one typical design of the DSTs. Double shell means that each tank consists of a primary tank within a secondary tank. The primary and secondary tanks are also known as liners, and both are made from carbon steel.
