The Effect of Edge Preparation on Coating Life, Phase One
2006
Sandor, Leslie W.
Presently, there is not a standardized method in the U.S. Shipbuilding Industry of preventing premature coating failures along sharp edges and at surface discontinuities in flats. Such coating failures can lead to product contamination and high repair costs. A lack of standardization and definition of what requires special preparation and/or repair have of course created a considerable amount of misunderstanding among the parties involved. Faced with similar dilemmas, several shipbuilding nations have very recently issued standards or guideline documents for sharp edges and/or defective flat surfaces. The countries are Japan, Sweden, France, Italy and West Germany. Copies of such documents obtained during Phase 1 of this project can be found in the Annex to this report.
