chapter 14 coatings failurs Flashcards
the mechanism of chalking is essentially one in which the coating _______ tends to gradually _______, leaving the surface covered with pigments that had been held on the surface by the ________.
binder
disintegrate
binder
______ or ______ of a coating is due to the exposure of a coating to the ________ rays of the sun and the action of the __________ on the organic binder.
powdering
chalking
actinic
radiation
_______ have a positive influence on chalking, as they tend to reduce the chalking by _______ the resin from the sun’s rays
pigments
shielding
Identify an ASTM standard that provides a method of determining the degree of chalking
ASTM standard D4214
_______ is essentially a wearing away of the coating surface in a _______ manner similar to the chalking mechanism.
Erosion
gradual
_______ is small breaks in a coating surface that forms as a coating ages and does not ______ the full depth of the coating.
Checking
penetrate
_______ is the shrinkage of the surface while at the same time the _____ of the coating does not change in the same way.
Alligatoring
body
___________ results from stresses on the _______, while cracking is caused by stresses ______ the film and ______ the film and the substrate.

Cracking occurs as a coating ages: as it is subject to _____ and _____, ____ and _____, _____, and _____ of moisture, etc.
expansion and contraction
wetting and drying
absorption and desorption
Reinforcing pigments, which are _____ or _______, aid materially in reinforcing the coating against cracking action.
Fibrous or acicular
ASTM Standard _______ can be used to evaluate extent of cracking.
D661-81
___ ______ occurs when highly filled coatings area applied rather heavily.
Mud cracking
______ is the result of the ______ of a coating where the _____ of the coating expands more rapidly during the drying period than the ______ of the coating.
Wrinkling

Some driers are used to speed the _____ cure and others are used as ______-______ materials
Surface
through- drying
_____ materials are examples of surface driers; _____ and _____ compounds are classified as through driers.
Cobalt
zinc and lead
Poly-amide curing agents are susceptible to biological failure, while _____ ____ curing agents have excellent resistance to sewage conditions.
Amine type
Fungus growth can be largely eliminated by the use of _____ _____ as part of the pigmentation, along with the addition of _____ , _____ or a combination of all three.
Zinc Oxide
Fungicides
Bactericides
Inorganic zinc coatings are highly filled with metallic zinc, and the _____ to binder ration is very high, so when drying is ____, fine surface ____ can occur.
pigment

Chalking remedy
coating formulated with radiation resistant resins (acrylic) and non catalytic, non chalking pigments.
Alligatoring remedy
Apply thin coats, dry thoruoughly before additional coats, never apply hard top coats (epoxy) over soft under coat (asphalt).
Mud Cracking remedy
use coatings with strong adhesions, apply under proper drying conditions, prevent sags, puddles, or areas of excess thickness.
Biological failure remedy
select oil-based coating which contain fungicides or bactericides.
