15.5-Year Inspection Reveals the Effectiveness of a Single-Coat Epoxy

Product Number: 51322-17996-SG

In the mid-1990s, the US Navy’s technical community, led by Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), recognized existing coatings used to protect the inside of ships’ tanks were failing on average 5-8 years after application. The high cost to blast and recoat over 11,000 tanks every 5-8 years, not counting submarines and aircraft carriers, was prohibitive. To address this issue, the Navy conducted a study to analyze the problem and decided to replace these legacy coatings with high solid epoxy coatings.¹

AMPP TM21606-2024, Weight Percent Solids in High Solids Coatings for the Maritime Industry

Product Number: AMPP TM21606-2024

Publication Date: 2024

$109.00

With an increasing use of ultra-high solids (UHS) and solvent-free (SF) coatings, a standardized and verified test method to provide reliable results in a practical manner is needed to measure and determine the total weight solids in coatings.

This AMPP test method aims to provide a precise and practical method to determine weight percent solids in high solids coatings.

This test method applies to coatings used during the building, operation, and maintenance of ships and maritime installations.

Corrosion Condition Assessment Program For Marine Asset Management

Product Number: 51322-17750-SG

Author: Jeffrey S. West, Casey Jones, Stephen W. Foster

Publication Date: 2022

$20.00

This paper describes the development of a formal corrosion inspection and condition assessment program to support corrosion and asset management planning for maritime structures at Port Houston. A hierarchical, elemental-based inspection approach was developed using visual inspection criteria and prescribed measurements to characterize the condition of coatings and cathodic protection systems for above- and underwater elements in maritime structures.
