Offshore coating systems have evolved over the past 50 years to allow for restrictions in raw material use and solvent emissions. This has meant that many tried and tested systems can no longer be used. This paper describes the industry in terms of attempts to generate suitable prequalification testing scenarios which will prevent premature failures of untried new systems

Anticorrosive pigments are key compounds in coating formulations to protect the metallic substrates on which coatings are applied. As these products are subjected to an increasing demand for more sustainable products, new ranges of zinc-free anticorrosive pigments are being developed.
The appearance a coating provides can sometimes be just as important as is protective properties. Ever-growing budget concerns have increased the demand for coatings that provide a longer lasting aesthetic finish. This paper will explain the basic terminology, testing procedures, analytical instruments and specification development for coating color, gloss, reflectivity and other appearance parameters. The appearance characteristics of various coatings will also be discussed.
Conductive and static dissipative floorings and coatings are designed to provide protection from electrical charges causing harm to work or products. This presentation is designed to familiarize you with the phenomenon of Static Electricity, how it is generated and its effects on industry. We will then discuss ways to alleviate or restrict problems associated with ESD by utilizing specialized conductive or static dissipative flooring and coating products. Specifically focused on the common conditions and design considerations required for a proper installation, including substrate requirements, grounding and strapping recommendations, and product selection criteria.
Galvanized protective coatings have been used for structural steel to mitigate steel corrosion in atmospheric exposures and chloride-rich marine environments. The galvanizing process involves dipping steel elements free of surface mill scale in a molten zinc bath where the diffusion of zinc into the steel matrix allows for zinc-iron alloy layers of decreasing zinc concentrations by depth to form in the steel. Oher elements such as tin, antimony and aluminum may be added to the galvanizing bath to control reaction rates, surface appearance and corrosion behavior. Hot-dipped galvanizing provides corrosion protection by developing a barrier layer and in certain conditions provide beneficial galvanic coupling of the zinc-rich layers to the steel.
When establishing the minimum conditions suitable for coating concrete, many coating manufacturers, and hence specifying engineers and contractors, generally rely on unrealistic moisture content and moisture vapor emission rate requirements. These compulsory values are founded on laboratory testing rather than field experience, or worse still, on supposition rooted in unachievable and unrelated requisites.
This paper will address both existing and new air barrier technology. Manufacturers, engineers, architects, trade professionals, and testing agencies will learn essential features of this emerging industry. Manufacturers will learn about the material properties and product performance requirements of air barrier coatings. Engineers and architects will learn basic building science principals required to create an air barrier utilizing coatings.
Cool coatings can play an important role in reducing global energy consumption and increasing interior comfort. They do this by minimizing solar absorption on a surface whilst maximizing thermal emission. Used in this way, a cool coating is able to reduce the flow of heat from the exterior coated surface into the building, resulting in lower internal temperatures.
Protective polymeric coatings containing active biocides are an approach to address material loss due to corrosion and fouling of steel surfaces. Tests were done on a hybrid epoxy-siliconized coating was synthesized and embedded with biocides.
Those who started in the industrial painting industry back in the 1980s may remember that third-party inspectors, hired by the owner, performed all of the inspection activities and documentation. The NACE Coating Inspection Program (CIP) had just begun in the early 80s, but those getting certified did not work for a contractor. That has changed. Now contractor quality control (QC) and owner quality assurance (QA) are much more clearly defined.
Throughout both commercial and military industries there is a growing need for environmentally safe and cost-effective solutions capable of removing paint and coatings from a wide range of surfaces including steel, aluminum, concrete, and composites. Atmospheric Plasma Coating Removal (APCR) is the next generation of coating removal and surface preparation technology that represents a step forward in developing more environmentally responsible methods for coating removal.
