Vinyl Alternative Coatings

Vinyl coatings have long been used in the hydro industry for steel structures. As VOC regulations and product availability have changed, owners have moved toward alternative technologies to replace those systems. The intent of this information is to understand the status of vinyl technology, identify and discuss other systems that have historically been used as an alternative, and to review the possibilities of new technologies for these applications.

Vinyl coatings have long been used in the hydro industry for steel structures. As VOC regulations and product availability have changed, owners have moved toward alternative technologies to replace those systems. The intent of this information is to understand the status of vinyl technology, identify and discuss other systems that have historically been used as an alternative, and to review the possibilities of new technologies for these applications. This paper will discuss and present alternative options for vinyl coatings systems on hydro steel structures. These structures would include spillway, flood control, and other various gates and steel structures in water control and hydroelectric power facilities. Learning points will include current replacement systems in use, VOC reduction, project time savings, intermittent immersion cycling, UV effects, debris effects on the structure, and the introduction of siloxane technology for this service.
