RE: [MW:12894] Paint drying for next coat.

By Materials & Welding

Hi,

The Jotun Barrier is an epoxy type with a comp A and a comp B to be mixed correctly.

See data sheets:

http://www.shitupaint.com/en/Jotun/TDS%20-%20BARRIER%20-%20English%20(uk)%20-%20Issued.07.10.2005.PDF

 

If the mixing is not correct, you will experience problems with the hardening ("drying") of the product.

As indicated below it may also be due to high humidity. If the steel dew point is less than 3 deg. C above the dew point, it may easily harden, but the paint will not adhere to the steel surface.

 

regards

Kristian

Hi,

 

"Before performing coating operations, ambient humidity should be lesser than 85% and steel temp. more than 3 deg C above dew point."


above could be a reason that 1st coat didn't dry even exceeding duration specified in the product datasheet,

You are right to stop application of 2nd coat unless 1st coat is fully cured, in order to check "extent of intercoat cure" solvent rub tests are performed in accordance with ASTM D4752 for INORGANIC ZINC.

 

If 1st coat is not fully cured and subsequent coats are applied, BLISTERING may occur.

Dear experts,

 

Can anybody give  me guidance to accept the paint for next coats.

 

I work as inspector, i need to clear the painted pipes (primed) for 2nd coat.

 

When i  go for inspection, contractor offered to me 1st coated  pipes ( Jotun paint  -Barrier  comp.A,   DFT required is 75Microns as per specification).

 

I observed a situation that contractor applied 1st coat, in few areas, patch-up work (repaint) has been done to get the required  75 microns.

 

When i touch the paint, it looks to me that paint has not  dried. contractor claims that paint is applied 6hrs back, per data sheet of that paint 3h is enough for repainting.

 

Now problem is contractor is asking me to clear the 1st coat for next coats ( Pipe undergo 4 coat paint system). I ob-jected it as it looks  paint is not dried.

 

Queries

 

 1. Patch-up work is allowed on 1st coat?

༯div>

Yes ....It can be patch worked on 1st coat ..but it should be in minor areas ....make sure before patch work All slag materials removal and surface should be free from sand particals etc....

 

2. What is the min. & max. paint thickness allowed (75 Microns is nominal).

༯div>

Minimum 75 Allowed ..Maximum up to 120-150

༯div>

 

3. What is the testing method to clear the paints  for next  coats.

There is few methods are using ..please check your client paint specifications ...which power tolong,blasting etc....

༯div>

༯div>

༯div>

༯div>

4. For Drying time, we should refer only  painters data sheet?

༯div>

Yes ..it is Mandatory

 

5. When will be used tape bonding testing ( ASTM D 3359).

༯div>

As per Project specification/Procedue/Standard

༯div>

༯div>

 

 

Thank you in advance

 

Rao.

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

By Materials & Welding
Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
