The Benefits of Steel Grit Blasting and Recycling was presented at the 2017 SSPC Conference. The white paper detailed the advantages of blasting with steel grit to clean a surface, remove rust, create a surface profile, and prepare a surface for coating. As a continuation, Steel Grit Blasting Improves Productivity and Quality has been written to inform contractors the purity the steel grit holds and contains once blasted on a steel structure and recycled through a four-stage cleaning process.

In the worldwide oil and gas industry, the application of epoxy phenolic coatings has been a dominant strategy to obtain high heat resistance from coatings and to mitigate corrosion under insulation (CUI) of both insulated carbon and stainless steel pipes operating up to 392°F (200°C). These coatings, however, are sensitive to overapplication, prone to cracking, and costly to repair when damaged.
A simple search of the internet will tell you that the speed of sound of a material increases with temperature or decreases with temperature, depending on which sites you access. This paper looks at the effect of temperature on the speed of sound in coating materials and the subsequent effect of changes in temperature on the coating thickness readings, specifically on concrete, measured ultrasonically.
Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthening has become a common technique used by many State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) around the country to address deficiencies with bridge structures. Carbon fiber strengthening systems are routinely used to strengthen pier caps, pier columns, concrete girders, impact damaged girders, and now steel structures. The paper will introduce the audience to the materials and the unique characteristics that make them so prized for repair and strengthening applications in civil infrastructure applications. Their use in bridge projects will be highlighted.
This paper will cover understanding the hot-dip galvanizing process and coating benefits, Identify the benefits of utilizing paint/powder coating with hot-dip galvanizing in a duplex system, Recognize the importance of communication and clear assignments of responsibility in the specification of successful duplex systems and differentiate between HDG surface conditions in order to properly prepare the zinc coating for paint/powder.
The authors look into the various factors that need to be taken into consideration when specifying coating systems for tank coatings and linings for existing carbon steel storage tanks.
There is a tremendous need for the protection of assets during processing, shipment and storage. Critical spares must be readily available and easy to place into service with minimal impact to the operation of equipment. The proven technology of VCIs (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitors) has long been used to preserve many of these assets using traditional mechanisms such as papers and films.
Few things in life improve quality, decrease costs and reduce the environmental impact. With the proper technology, using steel grit to prepare steel structures for coating can accomplish this.
The Use of Ultra-High Build, Fast Return to Service Coatings on Concrete Structures to Shorten the Construction Schedule at the Expansion of the Norman, OK Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Since the inception of the US commercial nuclear power program in the 1950’s, criteria have existed for ensuring the satisfactory performance of reactor containment protective coatings over the life of the plant. These criteria have been modified and updated periodically to reflect improvement of the industry and regulatory experience and knowledge bases. This presentation reviews the development of the current qualification requirements for US commercial nuclear power plant reactor containment coatings.
It is well known that corrosion has a significant impact on sustainment, system costs, and system availability to the warfighter. Mitigating such impacts is one of the greatest drivers to DoD Science &Technology (S&T) requirements and therefore research programs.
The five-year review of D7091, Standard Practice for Non-destructive Measurement of Dry Film Thickness of Nonmagnetic Coatings Applied to Ferrous Metals and Nonmagnetic, Nonconductive Coatings Applied to Non-Ferrous Metals is due to be completed by the end of 2018. The main update to this standard practice is the addition of the concept of scanning probes. Scanning probes are configured to take reading continuously at a rate of more than two reading a second while the probe is in contact with the coating.
