Ceramic Coating New Corrosion Fighter In the oil and gas industry, while traditional corrosion protection has relied mostly on short-lived physically-bonded coverings of substrate surfaces such as tapes, elaborate three-part coating systems (zinc, epoxy, and urethane), and cathodic protection, these merely attempt to lengthen the time before the steel asset…
For decades, industrial facilities have measured the effectiveness of a coating by its ability to prevent corrosion, which, of course, is its fundamental purpose. However, with the increasing awareness of the dangers of traditional organic-based coatings and the serious health risks posed to coating contractors, many facility safety managers are…
Safety first, for industrial coatings The EonCoat ceramic coating consists of two, non-hazardous components that do not interact until applied by a plural component spray gun. Since the components are not mixed and do not meet prior to application, the need for VOC-generating ingredients in the formulation is completely eliminated, as are HAPs.…
Según un reciente informe de NACE International (Asociación Nacional de Ingenieros de Corrosión), en la industria petrolera la corrosión es la causa de más del 25% de las fallas. Reparar o sustituir tuberías corroí- das le cuesta a la industria más de US$7.000 millones al año. Esta cifra puede duplicarse…
Safety First, for Industrial Coatings Chemically Bonded Phosphate Ceramics called EonCoat has been formulated that emits no VOCs or HAPs during or after application, has no flashpoint, flame spread, or hazardous waste disposal requirements. The coating consists of two non-hazardous components. Click here to read the full article
Seguridad en Recubrimentos Industriales Las instalaciones industriales recurren a revestimientos inorgánicos más seguros y efectivos para reducir el riesgo de lesiones graves y muerte de contratistas de recubrimientos. Durante décadas, las instalaciones industriales han medido la eficacia de un revestimiento por su capacidad para evitar la corrosión, el cual es,…
New Inorganic Options Ceramic coatings generate no smoke and have a flame spread rating of zero, which means that flames will not travel across the surface. In fact, an intense flame can be directly exposed to the coated surface and the substrate will not catch fire unless enough heat is generated…
Industrial facilities turn to safer, more effective inorganic coatings With the availability of new, safer, inorganic options such as EonCoat on the market, coating experts as well as industrial asset and safety managers can now specify an alternative to traditional carbon-based coatings that will dramatically increase safety without sacrificing corrosion…
A new type of ceramic coating now on the market is not only completely VOC-free, but is also promising to deliver an abrasion, corrosion, high temperature, and chemical resistant finish that can be applied in a high build, single coat with no primer by a licensed contractor. Click here to…
Submitted Content: Corrosion Protection with New Cost-Effective Coating The annual cost of corrosion is over 3% of the world’s GDP, representing $2.2 trillion in U.S. dollars, according to the World Corrosion Organization. Economic sectors from petroleum, infrastructure, utilities, and transportation to production, manufacturing, and government are at risk of corrosion…
