Application Characteristics and Laboratory Testing of Protective Coating Systems for Carbon Steel Exposed to Simulated SRB Effluent
August 1986
By: Louis MacDowell
Abstract
This is an interim report on
the Protective Coating System Program currently being conducted by the
Materials Testing Branch to evaluate candidate systems for protection
of carbon steel from both marine corrosion and attack by the solid
rocket booster Al2O3/HCl slurry. This report contains the application
data sheets for each of the 114 coating systems which were applied at
the MTB paint shop. These sheets contain information about surface
preparation, conditions in container, mixing conditions, application
conditions and handling properties, coating thickness information,
drying times, and comments on the overall application performance of
each of the coatings included in the study. The report also contains
the results of the laboratory adhesion and heat testing of the
inorganic zinc-rich coating systems evaluated as part of the study.
