Corrosion prevention coatings

Corrosion. Anticorrosion measures have become standard ia pipeline desiga, coastmctioa, and maintenance ia the oil and gas iadustries the principal measures are appHcation of corrosion-preventive coatings and cathodic protection for exterior protection and chemical additives for iaterior protectioa. Pipe for pipelines may be bought with a variety of coatiags, such as tar, fiber glass, felt and heavy paper, epoxy, polyethylene, etc, either pre-apphed or coated and wrapped on the job with special machines as the pipe is lowered iato the treach. An electric detector is used to determine if a coatiag gap (hoHday) exists bare spots are coated before the pipe is laid (see Corrosion and corrosion control).

Werme patented a propellent powder in which lead dust is intermixed in a quantity sufficient to form a corrosion-preventing coating in the bore of the gun. 

The general limitations of bonded solid film lubricants may be summarized as follows (i) they do not last indefinitely, (ii) possibly promoting corrosion and are not corrosion preventive coatings, (iii) they have no capacity to remove frictional heat, (iv) in most cases, re-lubrication is not possible, (v) application techniques and surface preparation must be meticulously controlled or performance is jeopardized and (vi) inspection techniques are not always satisfactory [54].

Capsulation of substances in polyelectrolyte microcapsules is a perspective task to make storage and controlled transport systems to be used in chemical technology for substances transport to the reaction zone to create active corrosion prevention coatings, to produce microreactors. These systems can be applied in perfumery or in textile industry to create "smart clothers", in medicine to transport toxic drugs,in tissue and organ engineering. As a result, implementation of remote control over capsule shells permeability to release their contents controllably becomes an actual task that requires shells functionalization. 

Tin plating on food cans are extremely thin (0.5 pm). Additional protection is given by application of lacquers. Can exteriors are painted for decoration and corrosion prevention. Coatings based on acrylic resins or polyester is used. Interior coatings are based on organosalt, to prevent unacceptably high Sn dissolution with time, for some types of foodstuffe.

The surface preparation methods for magnesium alloys are closely associated with corrosion prevention. Because magnesium is highly reactive, corrosion-preventive coatings must be applied for most service applications. The major problem is to apply a sufficient thickness of coating to prevent corrosion, but not so thick that the bond fails cohesively in the coating. ...
