Key Factors Affecting Coating Application

Overview
Surface Preparation
! Remove contaminants such as mill scale, rust, dirt, oil & grease
! Eliminate soluble salts such as chlorides and sulfates
! Create optimum steel surface area and profile which will increase total bond
strength
! Attain optimum surface temperature, which will improve surface wetting and
assist in achieving complete cure (epoxies, urethane etc.)

Process Control
! Application equipment parameters
! Coating thickness
! Cure times (where applicable)
! Cooling rates
! Cutback lengths & cleanliness

Quality Control
! Control of Customer supplied materials (incoming pipe)
! Raw materials
! Surface preparation
! Coating process parameters
! Documentation compliant to ISO 9001:2000 and project specific standard
