Development of the High-quality Coating System for the Steam Pipe of Ship

For ships, heat resistant coating is applied on the aluminized steel pipe systems dealing with high temperature steam over $200^{\circ}C$. The coatings on these steam pipes should retain both heat resistance and anti-corrosion properties to provide long-term resistance against coating defects (rust, delamination and crack) under the harsh outdoor environment including repeated seawater wetting and condensation. Thus, it is important to improve the coating qualities and to reduce maintenance works for these steam pipe systems. In this study, five different commercial heat resistant coatings (A, B, C, D, E) were selected for evaluation. Various physical properties of these coatings were evaluated on the coatings applied on the aluminized steam pipes. FT-IR analysis was also employed to identify the factors contributing the degree of heat resistance and durability of each coating material. The results indicated that the heat resistance capacity of coatings increased with the increase of silicon content as well as the decrease of substituent content. Both products C and D showed the best coating qualifies, which can be standard coating systems for future steam pipe areas.
