This is a print-on-demand (POD) book that will be produced just for you in 2-5 days after your order. It should arrive at your door in about one to two weeks. However, due to supply chain and logistic challenges currently affecting the industry, it may take longer. Allow three weeks for international orders.
The latest edition of this classic text covers all aspects of the use of high-performance coatings. The third edition covers the significant increase in new technology in the coatings industry since the publication of the second edition in 1999.

Walk into the cathodic protection classroom or field with a strong math, electricity, and chemistry foundation gained from this course. This course provides a thorough review of basic math, chemistry, and electrical fundamentals through step-by-step examples, self-study practice problems, and downloadable job-aids.
This 2-hour short course includes audio narration with transcripts and on-demand viewing and bookmarking capabilities that enable you to complete the course as your schedule allows.
Purchase of this course includes a one-year subscription and is non-refundable. Students will have access to all course materials for a period of one year from the date of registration. All course work must be completed during this time period. Extensions or transfers cannot be granted.
Extensive and increased collocation of high voltage AC (HVAC) electrical transmission lines, coupled with advances in coating technology, has resulted in the emergence of the possibility of transfer of electrical energy from the HVAC line to paralleling utilities through electrical induction. That transfer of energy can result in safety risks for personnel, as well as corrosion risks for below grade assets. In order to mitigate those risks, operators ground the induced AC using grounding electrodes, typically consisting of bare copper cabling or zinc ribbon.
Understanding the key components that cause osmotic blisters is essential to not only applying the proper concrete floor coating, but potentially walking away from a possible high-risk floor. Resinous floor coatings are organic coatings that have limitations. Coating failures are typically linked to moisture in the concrete slab. This can be a problem for resinous floor coatings that aren't moisture tolerant.
Abrasive blasting operations used for paint and surface coatings removal are essential for the maintenance of the ships, aircraft, and land vehicles of the United States Armed Forces as well as use industries such as oil & gas, power generation, construction, mining, and infrastructure, among others. Abrasive blasting nozzle design is rudimentary and noise levels produced during abrasive blasting operations in shipyards, maintenance facilities, and factories for removing paint and surface coatings often exceed exposure limits put in place by Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Reducing a worker's occupational noise exposure is imperative from a safety and economics perspective.
Dimensional Profiling is a new prospective of applying sustainable non-slip characteristics to the surface of polymeric flooring and coating systems. Over the last three decades, it has been commonplace in the industry to provide a single nonslip media profile.
Surface conditioning is the first step in building efficient corrosion protection on a part or structure. Key concerns during this step include, how to create a stronger anchor-profile and how to efficiently remove previously coated, damaged, or corroded elements from a materials surface prior to coating. The ideal solution must consider three areas of the surface conditioning process: finish quality, cleaning efficiency and total cost.
As onshore pipeline rights-of-way become more congested and urban sprawl increases, the number of horizontal directional drills (HDDs) will likely increase. HDD is a trenchless pipeline installation method that requires drilling a larger pilot hole where the mainline pipe can be subsequently pulled through the drilled hole. However, HDDs have an increased probability for coating damage, even when coated with traditional mill or field applied abrasion resistant overcoat (ARO).
Cavitation erosion of the rudder has been a serious problem in the high-speed container ship industry. It is well known that the lifetime of a conventional coating system is about 6 months against cavitation bubble collapse. Although STS 316L stainless steel has been applied to prevent such a problem, there are several drawbacks such as high repair cost and poor workability.
