Early Test Results of One-Coat Systems Applicable to Steel Bridge Structures

Product Number: 41208-427-SG

Author: Seung-Kyoung Lee, Shuang-Ling Chong, Yuan Yao

Publication Date: 2008

$20.00

A two-year FHWA in-house study was launched in November 2006 to evaluate various coating materials that can be applied as one-coat systems to steel bridges. A total of eight test materials plus a 3-coat system and a 2-coat control system were applied over near-white steel test panels (SSPC-SP10). Their performance is being monitored using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, various surface failures, rust creepage at scribe, adhesion, and change of color and gloss.

Effects of Blasting Methods on the Performance of Organic Coatings

Product Number: 41206-267-SG

Author: Andreas W. Momber

Publication Date: 2006

$20.00

The effects of three blasting methods utilised for surface preparation upon the behavior of five organic coating systems are investigated. The blasting methods include dry blast cleaning, UHP and UHPAB. It is shown that pull-off strength, pull-off failure mode, and delamination are significantly affected by the surface preparation method.

Environmentally Friendly Graffiti Resistant Coatings:Waterborne Polyurethane Coatings for Bridge Infrastructure That Actually Work

Product Number: 41210-567-SG

Author: Steven Reinstadtler

Publication Date: 2010

$20.00

Waterborne polyurethane coatings have been used in the bridge preservation market for years as an alternative to solvent borne systems but early technologies required the bridge coatings engineer to compromise on properties or durability. Additionally, many of these early products still contained high levels of VOC although touted as waterborne technology. New alternatives have evolved that address these issues and fit well into an overall sustainability plan.

Epoxy Revolutionizes Water and Wastewater Underground Infrastructure Protection and Rehabilitation with Energy Efficient Green Technology

Product Number: 41211-660-SG

Author: Stephen M. Wierzchowski, Rajesh Turakhia

Publication Date: 2011

$20.00

This paper presents an overview of systems available in the market today, their health and safety characteristics, performance capabilities and delivery mechanisms. Installation technologies are analyzed on their energy efficiencies, environmental impact, performance result consistency, ease of use and cost. The goal was to identify currently available systems; analyze concerns and limitations with these systems; and provide a basis for material selection and installation practices to achieve long-term expectations; while maintaining the utmost protection of humans, animals and the environment

Fast Cure Without Compromise: Enhanced Productivity Through Fast-Cure High Performance Coatings

Product Number: 51219-214-SG

Author: Mary Roley

Publication Date: 2019

$20.00

Rapid return-to-service, improved coating durability, and environmental concerns are major driving forces in today’s coating landscape. Coatings that are easier to handle, dry-faster, and last longer provide benefits that speed operation efficiencies and improve overall costs. Ambientcured coatings available today, that offer fast cure and weatherability, include polyurethanes, polyaspartics, waterborne acrylics, and polysiloxanes.

Innovative Colorants for Coatings Industry (Easy Dispersing and Low VOC Colorants)

Product Number: 41210-547-SG

Author: Wolfgang Winter, Romesh Kumar

Publication Date: 2010

$20.00

Cost effective and optimum pigment dispersion is the most important aspect of color and appearance of coatings. Brilliant hues and high chroma are achieved by a perfect pigment dispersion where primary pigment particles are achieved and are well stabilized in the finished paint. The dispersion process is very critical, very time consuming and cost-intensive, and consists of continuous reduction of the pigment agglomerates into smaller size aggregates, and finally into primary particles.

Major keys to Cost Effective Surface Preparation for Superior Coating Performance Corrosion Protection and Long Service Life

Product Number: 41209-505-SG

Author: Hugh J Roper, Joseph Brandon

Publication Date: 2009

$20.00

This presentation will outline the results and conclusions of a number of years of testing and experience in surface preparation for high-performance coatings. Testing has shown that there are a number of important surface preparation variables that are not routinely monitored and controlled on coating projects. These variables will be identified and guidance will be provided on appropriate treatment to achieve coating results.

Meeting Expectations When Specifying Concrete Rehabilitation

Product Number: 51218-103-SG

Author: Mike Dadik

Publication Date: 2018

$20.00

There are many approaches for rehabilitating deteriorated concrete. The options challenge applicators, estimators, and engineers when executing rehab projects. Selecting the cost-effective approach requires understanding the concrete condition, available coating systems, and level of effort to repair and coat the concrete. A well written specification balances a level of detail that conveys the specifier’s intent with opportunities for contractor innovation to provide facility owners with the best value.

Natural Oil Derivatives in Spray Elatomer Coatings

Product Number: 41208-396-SG

Author: Mark Anater, Christian Bruchertseifer, Gerhard Mueller

Publication Date: 2008

$20.00

The choice of technologies is influenced by factors such as material cost, labor cost, regulatory conditions, surface preparation requirements, application conditions, time available for work, environmental exposure, warranties and expected lifetime of the coating. Older technologies such as alkyds may still perform adequately in some applications.

OAP Coating Systems & Linings for Petroleum & Water Storage Tanks

Product Number: 51220-286-SG

Author: Deborah V. Simmons

Publication Date: 2020

$20.00

The tank painting process for the interior of a petroleum and/or water storage tank requires proper coating selection, product application and inspection in order to achieve long-term service life. The primary cause of early coating failures in a painting project is often related to an application issue. The use of coating systems and linings formulated with Optically Active Pigments (OAP) can help to ensure correct application and inspection of the tank linings.

Performance of Two-Coat v/s Three Coat Paint Systems

Product Number: 41214-829-SG

Author: Shameem A. Khan

Publication Date: 2014

$20.00

The Federal Highway Administration, through its Innovative Bridge Research and Construction Program, requested research in the performance of paint coatings applied to bridges. The Maryland State Highway Administration tested two different, two ─ coat systems in a side-by-side comparison with its standard three ─ coat paint system consisting of organic zinc primer / epoxy polyamide intermediate / aliphatic urethane finish coat (currently the “State of the Art” system for most States).
