It was requested that exposure testing be completed on various high durability coatings products to evaluate gloss retention and color changes. Various systems were chosen to test, some with clear coats and some without. They were placed in cyclic UV/condensation testing, concentrated natural sunlight testing in Arizona, and outdoor exposure testing in South Florida.

It was requested that exposure testing be completed on various high durability coatings products to evaluate gloss retention and color changes. Various systems were chosen to test, some with clear coats and some without. They were placed in cyclic UV/condensation testing, concentrated natural sunlight testing in Arizona, and outdoor exposure testing in South Florida. The coating systems that exhibited the best results were those that included a fluoropolymer coating. Rank order correlations among the various sites showed that results were very similar, with concentrated natural sunlight testing and outdoor exposure in Florida having the best correlations for gloss and color retention results. Calculated acceleration factors for this study were 1:2 for concentrated natural sunlight testing versus cyclic UV/condensation, 1:7 between concentrated sunlight and Florida outdoor exposure, and 1:5 between cyclic UV/condensation and Florida.

A Novel Alternative Surface Preparation for Duplex Coating of Galvanized Steel

Product Number: 41213-783-SG
Author: Richard Schertzer
Publication Date: 2013

This paper details a novel surface preparation process that is suitable for Duplex coating of galvanized steel intended for a variety of atmospheric and embedded service applications. It provides all the properties necessary for excellent coating performance and longevity, including high adhesion, excellent resistance to cathodic disbondment, and resistance to ingress of water, without the drawbacks associated with abrasive blasting, the traditional surface preparation method.

A long-term project such as the current Brooklyn Bridge Rehabilitation Program, known as Brooklyn Bridge Contract 6, presents a great opportunity to collect vast amounts of data and records relating to the total coating replacement on a historic landmark. On any project, especially one of this scope, the project team has to deal with many obstacles, both expected and unexpected, and significant unknowns.

02334 THE USE OF MULTIPLE REFERENCE ELECTRODES IN EN MEASUREMENTS

Product Number: 51300-02334-SG

In order to simplify the measurement of electrochemical noise in field applications, three identical electrodes, one acting as reference electrode (RE), are often used. In this work, a measurement scheme, which employs two REs is proposed, which can reduce the error due to the RE's noise. An example of its implementation is also presented.
