The intent of the nuclear supplement to the relevant SSPC QP contractor certification programs is to certify contractors and paint shops to perform work in and for nuclear facilities that require an enhanced level of quality assurance / quality control requirements and nuclear safety culture awareness for surface preparation and painting activities. SSPC will expand the current QP certification to include the assessment of capabilities of SSPC certified firms to provide coating services to the nuclear power industry based on ANSI and ASTM standards as well as NRC guidelines.
This paper discusses the use of Master Painter Institute (MPI) paint standards and systems to select and procure paints for the protection and beautification of commercial buildings. Background on MPI and an explanation of how to use its paint standards is provided, along with instructions for using MPI manuals to choose coating systems for building environments.

It is often said that inspection processes save money but that inspection reports cost money. The automation of inspection processes is an important cost saving that also leads to more time being allocated to the important task of inspection. There have been recent developments in both software and gauge design, which together make paperless quality assurance a reality for all protective and industrial coating applications.
Truly self-healing materials have the capability to repair themselves when they are damaged without the need for any external intervention. Self-healing systems based on microencapsulated healing agents developed by researchers at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign were initially developed with polymerized resins and reinforced polymer composites as the intended applications. In this paper, we discuss the principles that emerged in the design of these self-healing systems and how they are presently used in design and optimization of self-healing systems for industrial and marine protective coatings.
