Organic coatings for marine applications must have great corrosion protection and antifouling performance. This review presents an overview of recent investigations into coating microstructure, corrosion protection performance, antifouling behavior, and evaluation methods, particularly the substrate effect and environmental influence on coating protectiveness, aiming to improve operational practice in the coating industry. The review indicates that the presence of defects in an organic coating is the root cause of the corrosion damage of the coating. The protection performance of a coating system can be enhanced by proper treatment of the substrate and physical modification of the coating. Environmental factors may synergistically accelerate the coating degradation. The long-term protection performance of a coating system is extremely difficult to predict without coating defect information. Non-fouling coating and self-repairing coatings may be promising antifouling approaches. Based on the review, some important research topics are suggested, such as the exploration of rapid evaluation methods, the development of long-term cost-effective antifouling coatings in real marine environments.

: Self-healing coatings are intended to increase long-term durability and reliability and can be enabled by the presence of microcapsules containing a self-healing agent capable of interacting with the matrix and regenerating the system. This review article provides an overview of the state-of-the-art, focusing on the patents published in the field of microcapsule-based self-healing organic coatings, since the early 2000’s. A discussion about coatings for corrosion protection and the different self-healing approaches and mechanisms are also addressed, as well as future challenges and expectations for this kind of coatings.

Abstract For decades, zinc- and aluminum-based coatings have been considered the best material choice for steel corrosion protection since they may act as a protective barrier and show sacrificial behavior. These coatings are often prepared by galvanizing methods. However, their application by thermal spraying techniques (wire arc spraying, WAS and flame spraying, FS) has been proved as a cost-effective solution for the preparation of long-term corrosion-resistant coatings. This review selectively collects the most relevant information about the application and performance of these two techniques on Zn and Al coatings for corrosion protection. The report summarizes separately the Zn and Al data from the effect of the spraying parameters on coating properties on the one hand, and the results shown in long-term studies carried out in relevant and real exposure conditions, on the other. Finally, this review includes a description and comparison of the most recent advances found out with the novel and emerging spray technique, cold gas spray, for the deposition of Zn and Al coatings for corrosion protection purposes. Nevertheless, the use of this technique has not reached the stage of wide industrial application yet and therefore its long-term performance is unknown, which suggests that there is still room for further development.

Corrosion protection is one of the important performance properties of organic coatings. In this study, an attempt has been made to develop a high temperature coating. Different compositions of silicone and polyester resins are taken and mixed well with the addition of a hardener. The binder system is applied on the pre-treated cold rolled steel panels. Physical and mechanical properties are evaluated. Thermal resistance of the coating system is done according to specification of ASTM D2485 standards. DSC and TGA analyses are carried out to study the glass transition temperature and temperature dependence of the sample prepared respectively. Corrosion protection ability of the system is evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and immersion studies. From the thermal studies, the coating containing 40% silicone and 60% polyester has withstood up to 498 K.

Continued development of the oilsands in the Fort McMurray area of Alberta lead to a need for the MacKay River Pipeline. This heavy oil pipeline provides long-term, cost-effective transportation for production from the MacKay River area. The pipeline is designed to transport bitumen with little or no dilution (dry bitumen). In order to operate without diluent, the bitumen must be heated. Heat must be retained using a continuous layer of insulation, which ensures that viscosity remains low. The high operating temperature and the environment, through which the pipeline passes, were major challenges encountered during the design and construction phases. This paper focuses on the design, selection criteria, and testing of the coating system and discusses the important aspects of construction.

The paper presents two cases of reinforced and prestressed concrete structures damaged by corrosion in chloride-based industrial environments having as main aggressive agents: chlorine, hydrochloric acid and chlorides. To evaluate the corrosion damage of the concrete structures, in-situ and laboratory tests using specific investigation techniques were performed. Investigation of the damage state of structures revealed that many of the examined structural elements showed severe damage due to corrosion. This damage was in various stages of development and had a different influence on the resistance, stability and durability of structures. The corrosion-damage of the structural elements was favoured and accentuated by the absence of efficient intervention measures (repair, corrosion protection) for these elements. In order to ensure normal service conditions of the reinforced and prestressed concrete structures there were proposed intervention measures to remedy existing damages, regarding repair, strengthening, replacing, and corrosion protection of the damaged elements.

Abstract. The last several decades have witnessed a substantial increase in the number of individuals suffering from both diagnosable and subsyndromal mental health problems. Consequently, the development of cost-effective treatment methods, accessible to large populations suffering from different forms of mental health problems, became imperative. A very promising intervention is the method of expressive writing (EW), which may be used in both clinically diagnosable cases and subthreshold symptomatology. This method, in which people express their feelings and thoughts related to stressful situations in writing, has been found to improve participants’ long-term psychological, physiological, behavioral, and social functioning. Based on a thorough analysis and synthesis of the published literature (also including most recent meta-analyses), the present paper presents the expressive writing method, its short- and long-term, intra-and interpersonal effects, different situations and conditions in which it has been proven to be effective, the most important mechanisms implied in the process of recovery, advantages, disadvantages, and possible pitfalls of the method, as well as variants of the original technique and future research directions.

Organic coatings are widely employed in the corrosion protection of most metal surfaces, particularly steel. They provide a barrier against corrosive species present in the environment, due to their high resistance to oxygen, water and ions transport. This study focuses on the evaluation of corrosion protection performance of epoxy paint on the carbon steel surface in chloride environment (3% NaCl) by Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). The electrochemical behavior of painted surface was estimated by EIS parameters that contained paint film resistance, paint film capacitance and double layer capacitance. On the basis of calculation using EIS spectrums it was observed that pore resistance (Rpore) decreased with the appearance of doubled layer capacitance (Cdl) due to the electrolyte penetration through the film. This was further confirmed by the decrease of diffusion resistance (Rd) which was also the indicator of the deterioration of paint film protectiveness. Microscopic analyses have shown that oxidation dominates the corroded surfaces.
