This work deals with the assessment of fungal deterioration on different anti-corrosive coatings using electrochemical techniques (corrosion potential and ionic resistance).
Automotive companies and coaters recognize the need to monitor viscosity, but making that measurement outside the laboratory has challenged process engineers and quality departments. Automated in-line viscosity measurement enables continuous monitoring of paint at the point of application.
Developments in chemically resistant, 2K polymer-modified epoxy coatings have met several market needs, including carry of sulfuric acid, coating inspection facilitation, anti-static coatings, improved abrasion resistance and field-repairable coatings.
LumiShield provides a new approach to pretreatment technology with an electrodeposited aluminum oxide coating that improves performance, conforms to current and future regulatory guidance and at a lower cost.
Photosensitive haptic coatings can not only achieve gradual color change on athletic footwear, but could also be used for point-of-purchase individualization.
In the Indian (as well as African) subcontinent there is a maze of water transportation pipelines being laid that faithfully relies on the proven track record of coal tar products (commonly referred as wrapping coating) for underground installations. This article looks at various coal tar-based anti-corrosive systems used for UG piping and their relevance in today's industry, especially the widely used torch-applied coal tar tapes.
