Coating Voab Flashcards
A treatment for the removal of rust and mill scale from steel by immersing it in an acid solution containing an inhibitor. Pickling should be followed by thorough washing and drying before painting.
Acid pickling:
A process of atomizing paint by forcing it through an opening at high pressure. This effect is often aided by flashing (vaporization) of the solvents, especially if the paint has been previously heated.
Airless spraying:
(1) Having properties of an alkali. (2) Having a pH greater than 7.
Alkaline:
A coating consisting of a mixture of metallic aluminum pigment in powder or paste form dispersed in a suitable vehicle.
Aluminum paint:
A film on a metal surface resulting from an electrolytic treatment at the anode.
Anodic coating:
A coating, composed wholly or partially of an anodic metal (in sufficient quantity to set off electrochemical reaction), which is electrically positive to the substrate to which it is applied.
Anodic metallic coating:
Forming a conversion coating on a metal surface by anodic oxidation; most frequently applied to aluminum.
Anodizing:
A coating used for preventing the corrosion of metals which has been specially formulated to prevent the rusting of iron and steel.
Anticorrosion paint or composition:
The nonvolatile portion of the liquid vehicle of a coating.
Binder:
Asphalt or tar compound used to provide a protective finish.
Bituminous coating:
Cleaning and roughening of a surface (particularly steel) by the use of a metallic or nonmetallic abrasive that is propelled against a surface by compressed air, centrifugal force, or water.
Blast-cleaning:
The formation of swellings on the surface of an unbroken paint film by moisture, gases or the development of corrosion products between the metal and the paint film.
Blistering:
Whitening and loss of gloss of a usually organic coating caused by moisture.
Application of a coating by means of a brush.
Blushing:
Brushing:
Paint supplied in dry powder form, based essentially on Portland cement, to which pigments are sometimes added for decorative purposes. This dry, powdered paint is mixed with water immediately before use.
Cement paint:
A coating developed on a metal surface by a high-temperature diffusion process (as carburization, calorizing, or chromizing).
Cementation coating:
A protective or decorative coating that is produced deliberately on a metal surface by reaction of the surface with a chosen chemical environment.
Chemical conversion coating:
A coating in which the binder or vehicle is a combination of coal tar and epoxy resin.
A coating in which the binder or vehicle is a combination of coal tar with a polyurethane resin.
Coal-tar epoxy coating:
Coal-tar urethane coating:
A number of coats separately applied in a predetermined order at suitable intervals to allow for drying or curing.
Coating system:
A liquid, liquefiable, or mastic composition that has been converted to a solid protective, decorative, or functional adherent film after application in a thin layer. A coating is an electrical insulating covering applied to a metal surface as passive protection against external corrosion.
Coating:
Two or more paints or varnishes that can be mixed without producing any undesirable effects such as precipitation, coagulation, or gelling are said to be compatible. Different coats of paint that can be associated in a painting system or other coating systems without producing undesirable effects are also compatible.
Compatible:
A coating consisting of a compound of the surface metal, produced by chemical or electrochemical treatments of the metal.
Conversion coating:
The separation of metallic material from an attacking medium by paint or coating.
Corrosion protection:
The temperature at which moisture will condense.
Dew point:
instruments consist of magnetic gauges that measure the thickness of a dry film of a nonmagnetic coating applied to a magnetic substrate.
DFT measurement:
A chromate conversion coating produced on magnesium alloys in a boiling solution of sodium dichromate.
Dichromate treatment:
