1、6-1SSPC-Paint COMNovember 1, 2004SSPC: The Society for Protective CoatingsCOMMENTARY ON PAINT SPECIFICATIONS 1. DescriptionSince 1955, the SSPC has issued specifi cations for coat-ings that have performed well in actual use on steel structures. When these paint specifi cations are used in conjunctio

2、n with the SSPC standards for surface preparation, paint application, and thickness measurement, they provide complete paint systems for most steel structures and environments. Tables 1 and 2 summarize the SSPC paint specifi cations. Each paint specifi cation contains a scope and a description of th

3、e paint. The composition specifi cations also contain directions for use. Performance specifi cations provide wide latitude on composi-tion but require minimum performance levels that the coating must meet.2. Approaches to Procuring PaintProcurement of paint by specifi cation represents an attempt b

4、y the purchaser to exercise a degree of control over the quality of the product. That degree of control may range from tight, as when one of the SSPC paints with composition specifi cation is cited, to virtually nil, as when a minimally de-scriptive, generic designation is used, e.g., a zinc-rich pr

5、imer, a shop coat, a urethane. In addition to purchaser control, specifi cations make competitive procurement practical.Another approach to the purchase of paint is represented by the naming of a specifi c proprietary product, the composi-tion of which may be described in a label analysis. Usually,

6、the citation of a proprietary product denotes a high degree of confi dence in that products performance record. It also implies confi dence in the manufacturers reputation for quality and integrity - in other words, in the likelihood that the manufacturer will continue to maintain the quality for wh

7、ich the product has become known.Unfortunately, in a vain attempt to promote competition, faith in the performance expected of a known proprietary product is often undermined by addition of the bland phrase “or equal.” Adding an “or equal” provision to a procurement specifi cation without specifying

8、 the criteria that characterize equality of performance is a meaningless exercise.Composition specifi cations offer the assurance of a desired measure of quality, but they also have the disadvantage of “locking in” a product to the level of quality or value prevailing during a specifi c period in th

9、e history of an evolving technol-ogy. One of the important objectives of SSPC is to focus on the expertise of its highly qualifi ed, voluntary collaborators on critical evaluations of the products of new technology, so that those products may be assimilated into the spectrum of reliable materials wi

10、th deliberate speed.While no organization deliberating by consensus can operate at a rapid pace, the background of information gen-erated by a mature organization such as SSPC presents the user with enough choices of time-tested paints, both old and new, to justify deferral of judgment on commercial

11、 products that are not as yet backed by documented history of proven performance in the fi eld.If a paint is procured through a pure composition specifi -cation, SSPC-Paint 16 for example, the purchaser knows the physical, chemical, and performance properties of the product. The manufacturer follows

12、 the formula to produce the paint.If paints are not being supplied to a composition specifi ca-tion, the purchaser is entitled, without transgressing into the area of proprietary information, to request a statement of the products principal composition and performance parameters, such as the followi

44、easons there is still a need for some compositional requirements in most paint or coating specifi cations. First, the correlation between long-term durability and short-term accel-erated performance tests is still an incomplete one, in spite of considerable recent progress. Secondly, in the present

45、state of the art, it is still essential for the buyer to know, for example, that a zinc-rich paint contains at least some zinc, and that an epoxy contains some epoxy.3.2 PERFORMANCE LEVELS: Several specifi cations, (e.g., SSPC-Paint 34, a waterborne epoxy; SSPC-Paint 29, a zinc dust primer; and SSPC

46、-Paint 39, a polyurea topcoat) have incorporated the concept of performance levels of paints. The higher the level, the higher the degree of confi dence in the performance of the paint. Under this approach, a lower level is generally based on accelerated tests, which can be performed relatively rapi

47、dly, but which offer a lower degree of confi dence. The second or third levels of performance may be based on actual exterior exposure of 12 to 48 months at defi ned exterior sites or may be based on longer term acceler-ated tests. In some instances, a low level may be used as an interim qualifi cat

48、ion. In this case, the specifi er would accept the products for limited use while waiting to accumulate the longer time fi eld data required for the higher level of performance.3.3 VOC LEVELS: In response to the continuing aware-ness of protecting the environment, governmental districts now restrict

49、 the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from painting operations. SSPC does not defi ne VOC levels because of the wide variation in VOC limits among different localities and among different applications. The contracting parties are referred to the federal, state, and local regulatory authorities for guidance on the allowable levels of VOC emissions.4.
