Quality Lab

Conducted Tests

We offer on-site testing to ensure the integrity and highest quality standards of our coating process.

CATHODIC DISBONDMENT TEST

Provides an assessment of the resistance of the coating to disbondment when subjected to cathodic disbondment

HOT WATER SOAK

Provides an accelerated assessment of the coating’s adhesion to the substrate in a hot, wet environment.

FLEXIBILITY

Evaluates the flexibility of the coating to field bending.

IMPACT TEST

Assesses the coating’s resistance to damage by impact.

POROSITY TEST

Determines the degree of porosity or voids in the applied coating.

CONTAMINATION VERIFICATION

Determines the amount of contamination on the pipe surface prior to coating application.

DIFFERENTIAL SCANNING CALORIMETER

Used to determine the glass transition (Tg) and the amount of exothermic heat of reaction of epoxy powder or FBE pipe coating
