12、ction against corrosive environments. This standard recommended practice covers surface preparation, material requirements, application, and handling of hot- and cold-applied wax and component wrappers and wax-tape coating systems for the protection of underground pipe, fittings, and valves. This st

13、andard is intended for use by corrosion control personnel, design engineers, project managers, purchasers, and construction engineers and managers. This standard was originally prepared in 1975 by Task Group T-10D-16, a component of NACE International Unit Committee T-10D on Protective Coating Syste

14、ms. It superseded NACE Publication 2L161.1 The scope of the original NACE Standard RP0375 included only the application of hot- and cold-applied wax coatings. When this standard was revised by the task group in 1994, the section on wax-tape coatings was added. In 1999 this standard was reviewed by T

15、ask Group (TG) T-10D-17/T-6A-63 and reaffirmed with editorial changes. In 2005 it was revised by TG 296, which is administered by Specific Technology Group (STG) 03 on Protective Coatings and LiningsImmersion/Buried. It is also sponsored by STG 04 on Protective Coatings and LiningsSurface Preparatio

20、_ Section 1: General 1.1 This standard covers hot- and cold-applied wax and component wrappers and wax-tape coating systems for the protection of underground metallic pipe, fittings, and valves. It outlines material requirements for hot-applied waxes, cold-applied waxes, component wrappers, and wax

21、tapes as well as proper methods of surface preparation, coating application, and handling of the coated pipe. 1.2 Tables 1 through 4 provide material requirements and give references to ASTM(1)standard test methods for the various coating materials discussed. 1.3 Any reference made to wax tape and w

22、ax primer in this standard also applies to petrolatum tape and petrolatum primer. 1.4 Hot-applied wax coatings may be applied by machine as a line-travel operation in the field or by hand. Cold-applied wax and wax-tape coatings are applied only by hand. These coatings may be used on new piping or fo

23、r coating rehabilitation. 1.5 The surface preparation required for hot-applied wax coatings differs from the surface preparation required for cold-applied wax and wax-tape coatings. _ Section 2: Hot-Applied Wax Systems 2.1 Hot-applied wax coating systems for underground pipes usually consist of a mi

24、crocrystalline wax coating applied directly to the surface followed by an overwrap of component wrapper. 2.2 Hot-applied wax coating materials shall have the following characteristics: 2.2.1 Microcrystalline Wax 2.2.1.1 Microcrystalline wax shall be inert, flexible, waterproof, adhesive, and have go

25、od wetting characteristics. 2.2.1.2 Microcrystalline wax shall be capable of being blended with suitable wetting agents and rust inhibitors. 2.2.1.3 Microcrystalline wax shall meet the requirements given in Table 1 when tested in accordance with the test methods listed therein. 2.2.1.4 Microcrystall

26、ine wax shall be heated or may be reheated in a clean kettle or a kettle that has been previously used for microcrystalline wax pipe coating. 2.2.1.5 Microcrystalline wax shall have service-temperature capability up to 52C (125F). Service-temperature properties shall be determined by the hot-applied

35、dditional overcoat of hot-applied wax (if specified). 2.4 Surface Preparation 2.4.1 The surface shall be free from oil and grease and, if necessary, shall be solvent cleaned in accordance with SSPC(2)-SP 1.8 2.4.2 Unless otherwise specified, the surface shall be hand-tool cleaned in accordance with

36、SSPC-SP 2.9 2.4.3 The surface shall be dry prior to application of the coating. The pipe surface temperature shall be more than 3C (5F) above the dewpoint temperature. The pipe shall be heated to remove moisture. Coating application should follow immediately after preheating. 2.4.4 The prepared surf

37、ace shall be visually inspected to determine whether foreign material has been removed in accordance with the degree of cleanliness specified. 2.5 Coating Application 2.5.1 Hot wax shall be flooded directly on the surface at the temperature recommended by the manufacturer and approved by the enginee

38、r in charge or a representative of the owner. The application temperature range is based on ambient conditions and pipe temperature. 2.5.2 The temperature of the wax applied to the pipe surface shall be sufficiently hot to produce a continuous film of 500-m (20-mil) minimum thickness and adhere well

39、 to the surface. An infrared temperature gun or bulb thermometer may be used to measure the temperature of the wax and to ensure proper heating of the wax. A wet-film thickness gauge shall be used to measure thickness at the 12, 3, and 6 oclock positions on the pipe. _ (2)Society for Protective Coat

40、ings (SSPC), 40 24thSt., 6thFloor, Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4656. RP0375-2006 NACE International 3 2.5.3 Before starting to coat a full section of pipe, a 1-m (3-ft) section of pipe shall be coated and inspected for adhesion at the 12, 3, and 6 oclock positions. Using a field knife, the inspector shall

41、attempt to remove a 50- x 25-mm (2.0- x 1.0-in.) strip, consisting of a continuous and clean layer of wax, from the pipe surface. If the wax layer can be removed from the pipe surface in a continuous film with no visual evidence of a wax layer remaining on the pipe surface, then proper adhesion was

42、not achieved. If proper adhesion is not apparent, the temperature of the heating vessel containing the wax shall be raised 11C (20F) and the adhesion test shall be attempted again. The temperature shall continue to be increased in 11C (20F) increments until the wax adheres properly to the surface. W

43、hen the proper heating temperature of the coating has been achieved, coating of the pipe section may commence. At no time during the heating shall the temperature meet or exceed the flash point of the wax as shown in the manufacturers material safety data sheet (MSDS). Note: If proper adhesion is no

44、t achieved on the test section, the wax shall be removed in accordance with the manufacturers recommendation and reapplied to the test section at a higher temperature, as stated above. In addition, the operator may implement operational “workarounds” in conditions in which pipe may have moisture on

45、the surface due to pressure differentials (e.g., reduce product flow through the section of pipe to be coated in order to raise the pipe temperature). 2.5.4 The wrappers shall be applied in a uniform, snug-fitting, and overlapping pattern following the application of the hot wax coating. 2.5.4.1 Com

46、ponent wrappers are normally applied using a spiral wrap. Component wrappers may also be applied using a cigarette wrap technique as specified by the manufacturer. 2.5.4.2 Wrapper tension shall be sufficient to ensure tight application over the coating. 2.5.4.3 Overlap at the edges of the wrapper sh

47、all be maintained as recommended by the manufacturer and approved by the engineer in charge or a representative of the owner. Usually a minimum of 25 mm (1.0 in.) of overlap and 76 mm (3 in.) of existing coating is required. 2.5.5 Application of the wax coating and wrapper shall be visually inspecte

48、d to determine that the application conforms to contract specifications and is free from holidays or other coating irregularities. Flood coating the pipe with a method specified by the coating manufacturer shall be used to ensure adequate coverage. 2.5.6 The entire hot-applied microcrystalline wax system of each field application area may, at the purchasers option, be inspec
