Scope1.1 This specifi cation covers two types of highly pigmented zinc-rich coatings that are uniquely defi ned by their capabili-ties for protecting steel exposed at fi lm discontinuities such as narrow scratches and holidays.1.2
2、The vehicle type may be inorganic (Type I) or organic (Type II).1.3 This specifi cation does not cover weldable precon-struction primers such as SSPC-Paint 30.1.4 Zinc-rich coatings, both topcoated and untopcoated, have been used successfully in a wide variety of environmental zones. For a detailed
