Is the Heat and Pressure of Formulating Coatings for the Oil and Gas Market Getting to You?

Is the Heat and Pressure of Formulating Coatings for the Oil and Gas Market Getting to You?
Available for download

Many protective coatings markets have recently seen high demand for higher performing coatings or linings. For example, with enhanced oil recovery, many more assets are now used throughout these processes from the oil / water separation tanks to the acid injectors. The temperatures are higher and corrosive environments are more severe. Formulation chemists are working hard at trying to push the extent of the performance of typical resin systems, but it seems that most of the development has been done and the extent of the performance available has been maximized.

Many protective coatings markets have recently seen high demand for higher performing coatings or linings. For example, with enhanced oil recovery, many more assets are now used throughout these processes from the oil / water separation tanks to the acid injectors. The temperatures are higher and corrosive environments are more severe. Formulation chemists are working hard at trying to push the extent of the performance of typical resin systems, but it seems that most of the development has been done and the extent of the performance available has been maximized. But before throwing in the towel and going to expensive alloys…maybe something was overlooked. The following paper will look at how to formulate for high performance properties, in particular, high temperature immersion applications with epoxy thermoset coatings and the impact of formulation additives on achieving this performance. The data presented will show how the least amount of the formulation can have a significant impact on coating performance. More specifically, it will be shown that with proper dispersant selection, the viscosity of the coating system can be reduced leading to increased filler loadings and ultimately higher performance. Furthermore, data will show how going through a step-by-step formulating process, from resin selection to choosing the right defoamer, can provide for higher performing coatings than typically seen with the selected chemistries.

Isocyanate Free Polyurthane Coatings for Industrial Metal Applications

Product Number: 41215-921-SG

Two component polyurethane coatings are used in a variety of applications including industrial maintenance. These coating systems were introduced in the 1970’s primarily as topcoats; characterized by their excellent weatherability, toughness, and chemical and stain resistance. When formulated as ambient cured systems, traditional two component polyurethanes typically sacrifice cure time for pot life unless plural component application equipment is employed.

It does not take one with too much intelligence to note that our infrastructure is in dire shape. Not only does this include our water & wastewater areas, but our road and bridge systems need substantial help. Deterioration due to environmental issues, water and chemicals that are used which cause for serious corrosion and erosion concerns. Over the years, a variety of methods have been employed to help with these issues, but all have individual characteristics and problems.

Learning to Specify Vinyl Ester Linings for FGD Applications

Product Number: 41208-456-SG
Author: Jeffrey Stewart
Publication Date: 2008
$20.00

Vinyl Ester based lining systems are a proven commodity as a corrosion control technology in Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) Systems . The problem is they have proven to be alternatively successful or unsuccessful. The “how to” of receiving a good system is in learning the way a lining system works and the correct methods of application, so that a proper specification can be prepared.
