  2. Cured-in-place pipe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cured-in-place_pipe

    The process of CIPP involves inserting and running a felt lining into a preexisting pipe that is the subject of repair. Resin within the liner is then exposed to a curing element to harden it and make it attach to the inner walls of the pipe. Once fully cured, the lining now acts as a new pipeline.

  3. Fusion bonded epoxy coating - Wikipedia

    The molten extrudate then passes between cold-rollers and becomes a solid, brittle sheet. It then moves to a “Kibbler”, which chops it into smaller chips. These chips are ground, using high speed grinders (classifiers) to a particle size of less than 150 micrometers (standard specifications requires 100% pass through in 250 micrometer ...

    This is a new generation eco-friendly foam blowing agent that is free of Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) based on naturally occurring methyl methanoate. Open-cell (low density) polyurethane White or yellow. Expands to fill and seal cavity, but expands slowly, preventing damage to the wall.

  5. Sodium silicate - Wikipedia

    This repair can last two years or longer, and symptoms disappear instantly. However, this repair works only when the sodium silicate reaches its "conversion" temperature. Also, sodium silicate (glass particulate) contamination of lubricants is detrimental to their function, and contamination of engine oil is a serious possibility in situations ...

  6. Corrosion in ballast tanks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrosion_in_ballast_tanks

    Temperatures in this area are much lower due to the cooling of the sea. If this extremely cathodic region is placed close to an anodic source (e.g. a corroding ballast pipe), cathodic blistering may occur especially where the epoxy coating is relatively new. Mud retained in ballast water can lead to microbial corrosion. [4]

  7. Epoxy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxy

    Epoxy is the family of basic components or cured end products of epoxy resins. Epoxy resins, also known as polyepoxides, are a class of reactive prepolymers and polymers which contain epoxide groups. The epoxide functional group is also collectively called epoxy. [1] The IUPAC name for an epoxide group is an oxirane.

  8. Cross-linked polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-linked_polyethylene

    A cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) pipe. Cross-linked polyethylene, commonly abbreviated PEX, XPE or XLPE, is a form of polyethylene with cross-links.It is used predominantly in building services pipework systems, hydronic radiant heating and cooling systems, domestic water piping, insulation for high tension (high voltage) electrical cables, and baby play mats.

  9. Radiator (engine cooling) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiator_(engine_cooling)

    A system of valves or baffles, or both, is usually incorporated to simultaneously operate a small radiator inside the vehicle. This small radiator, and the associated blower fan, is called the heater core, and serves to warm the cabin interior. Like the radiator, the heater core acts by removing heat from the engine.
