Both the legacy NACE and SSPC organizations were ANSI-accredited standards developers, which AMPP plans to continue.The merged standards program includes 25 standing standards committees that develop technical standards for industries including cathodic protection, coatings, defense, highways and bridges, rail, maritime, oil and gas, power and utilities, research and testing, tanks and ...
In 1983, radio personality Russ Gibb was the voice-over on Ziebart rust protection TV spots. In 1985, Ziebart's first Clio Award-winning TV campaign, "Friend of the Family (Rust in Peace)", began running with actor Andrew Duggan doing the voice-over. [13]
This improvement was discovered by Darsey of the Parker Rust Proof Company, who filed a patent in February 1941, which was granted in August 1942, U.S. patent 2,293,716, that improved upon the zinc phosphatizing (Parkerizing) process further. He discovered that adding copper reduced the acidity requirement over what had been required, and that ...
In 1996 the FTC ordered David McCready, a person that sold devices claiming to protect cars from corrosion, to pay restitution and banned the names "Rust Buster" and "Rust Evader." [ 49 ] Under section 74.01(1) (b) of the Competition Act Canada , no performance claims about a product or its effectiveness can be done unless it can be proven that ...
Severe car body corrosion example. Rustproofing is the prevention or delay of rusting of iron and steel objects, or the permanent protection against corrosion.Typically, the protection is achieved by a process of surface finishing or treatment.
The salt spray test (or salt fog test) is a standardized and popular corrosion test method, used to check corrosion resistance of materials and surface coatings.Usually, the materials to be tested are metallic (although stone, ceramics, and polymers may also be tested) and finished with a surface coating which is intended to provide a degree of corrosion protection to the underlying metal.
Bluing only works on ferrous materials, such as steel or cast iron, for protecting against corrosion because it changes iron into Fe 3 O 4. As aluminium and polymers do not rust, they cannot be blued, and no corrosion protection is provided. However, the chemicals from the bluing process can cause uneven staining on aluminium and polymer parts.
The corrosion resistance of aluminium alloys is significantly decreased by certain alloying elements or impurities: copper, iron, and silicon, [5] so 2000-, 4000-, 6000 and 7000-series Al alloys tend to be most susceptible. Although anodizing produces a very regular and uniform coating, microscopic fissures in the coating can lead to corrosion.
