National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) Surface Preparation and Coatings (SP&C) Panel 2016 Update

Product Number: 41216-999-SG

Author: Arcino Quiero, Jr.

Publication Date: 2016

$20.00

The paper is an overview of the National Shipbuilding Research Program (NSRP) Surface Preparation and Coating Panel’s (SP&C) mission to reduce the cost of construction, maintenance, and repair of US Navy ships. The Panel’s “Specs to Decks” approach; research, evaluate, develop, and sustain current and emerging technologies that will reduce cost and maintain or enhance quality, serves as a rudder that guides the Panel’s performance. This review will provide a summary of the Panel and a look at some of its implemented, current, and proposed projects.

Optimization of Corrosion Inhibitor Application Using Modular Automated Corrosion Control Centers

Product Number: 41206-278-SG

Author: Wayne Powell

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

In the 1990s, military assets transported shipboard to overseas locations by the U.S. Army arrived at their destinations already corroded due to saltwater. In response to this problem, U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command (TACOM) began manually applying spray-on corrosion inhibitor (CI) to assets prior to transportation and realized a significant reduction in corrosion. However, due to an increase in the volume of military assets being transported overseas, manual application of CI soon proved too time-consuming and costly.

Partial Blast of Ultra High Solids Coatings on Navy Ships

Product Number: 51217-024-SG

Author: J. Peter Ault

Publication Date: 2017

$20.00

The NSRP Surface Preparation and Coatings panel sponsored a project to reduce the extent of abrasive blasting to remove aged, ultra-high solids coatings from tanks and other spaces on Navy ships. This “partial blast” process allows a percentage of remaining serviceable Ultra High Solids (UHS) to remain. After surface preparation, a single coat application of UHS coating is applied to all surfaces.

Performing Coating And Corrosion Assessments To Maintain Military Fuel Piping

Product Number: 51322-18027-SG

Author: Adam Beers

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

In any military base, there are numerous assets that need to be maintained. These assets can easily be traced from the fuel offload all the way through to the fuel dispenser. In between, this fuel travels through pipelines, into storage tanks, into pump stations, through filter separators, into fuel dispensers, and finally into either a track or non-track vehicle including jets. Therefore, it is extremely important to develop a system to inventory all assets and perform condition assessments on each to prevent degradation, corrosion, possible section loss of the metallic substrate, and loss of the liquid fuel. This paper will highlight some of the assets related to the fuels pipeline and related assets.
