An ideal flanged joint would consist of two, mirror-finish, perfectly flat
and parallel surfaces bolted directly together to create a leak-free seal.
However, manufacturing processes do not allow for perfect sealing surfaces.
Most flange faces have surface irregularities that cannot be sealed without
the use of some type of compressible, resilient material or a combination of
materials between them to seal the fluid being transferred. This is true
even for the most finely machined surfaces as a turbine flange where the
surface asperities can create a leak situation.
Project Sales Corp presents an exhaustive range of sealing and gasketing
material that can be used to effectively seal flanges and in many cases seal
leaks that can develop in operation and can be sealed in-situ without an
outage of the equipment. We stock gasketing compounds, jointing Compounds,
Flange Sealants, Thread Sealants, Pipe Sealants, Form-in-place RTVs, Turbine
Flange Sealing Compounds. Please see attached presentation for more details.

in addition to supplying the latest corrosion
protection products, Corrocoat’s licenced
partners also provide a range of mechanical
engineering skills to extend the service life of
key components. Another example of this
is when Vietnam gloCoating Engineering
refurbished two power transformer insulators
in its workshop.
Engineers removed the failed seal, degreased and
masked each insulator and aluminium ring leaving
a 40 mm exposed area adjacent to the joint.
This was then masked and blast cleaned with
aluminium oxide grit, and Corrofill E applied to
build up an even transition from
ceramic insulator to aluminium ring.
Epoxy laminating resin was then
applied to the whole area, overlapping
as required. This was then finished
with Polyglass Zip E to 400 – 500 μm
WFT followed by a top coat of
polyurethane paint. As a result of this
work the life span of the transformers
has been extended by many years.

2. Corrocoat USA has solved a very costly problem for
one of the country’s oldest pellet mills in South
georgia. An ongoing problem for the mill has been the
need to constantly repair damage at the impact zone of a
56” diameter x 19’6”long exhaust elbow. Despite trying a
number of different types of coating and/or rubber
combinations, repairs, including patches have been
necessary every three months.
The solution provided by Corrocoat USA was to: weld
patches to the damaged areas; abrasive blast to a profile
of 50-100 microns, apply Plasmet HTE to 1500 microns.
Calcined alumina tiles with a Plasmet HTE grout were then
applied followed by a final coat of HTE to finish the tiles.
After several months continuous use, the lining remains in
a good condition and the operators of the pellet mill are
very satisfied with the huge savings which have resulted
from the Corrocoat solution.
Costly problem Solved at US pellet Mill
gas desulphurisation plants have been in
use for over 35 years but the wet scrubbing
process results in highly corrosive
conditions in plant and flue gas ducting.
the problem is made worse as a number of
different aggressive corrosion conditions
occur and therefore several protection
products and application skills are required.
We have developed a number of products
to provide long-term corrosion protection
in gas plants and over the years Corrocoat
Benelux have used these on a number
of contracts.
For Waste Management and Renewable Energy Companies -HVC in Dordrecht and AVR Rotterdam, large flues
from waste burning plant have been protected with Polyglass VEF, a glass flake vinyl ester acrylic co-polymer
which offers high levels of resistance in chemical environments within the full pH range.
At a sludge treatment facility operated by SNB in Holland, and industrial gas manufacturer, Air Liquide in
France, Corrothane XT has been used on flue duct protection contracts. This cold cured vinyl ester hybrid
was developed for coating steel where, as in these cases, high working temperatures are experienced.
All these installations are audited regularly and time has proved that Corrocoat products continue to provide
the required protection and will do so for many years to come.

Corroserve was contacted by a client, who had invested in a Vantool tanker, manufactured
in 304 grade stainless steel. the tanker was to be used for the transportation of variable
acidic waste streams including, nitric, sulphuric and hydrochloric acids – all at variable
temperatures. the requirement was for an internal tank lining coating system, which would
protect this asset and guarantee longevity of service.
The tanker manways and internals were stripped and blast cleaned to SA 2½ with a profile of 50 – 100 μm.
610 g/m² quadraxial matting was applied to all the tank internals followed by a build coat of Polyglass VEF
at 1200 μm and finally a veilcoat of Polyglass VE at 250 μm.
This bespoke coating system provides an industry-leading level of long term protection, over a wide
temperature range, to the tanker internals, pipeways, external reservoirs and manway necks and lids,
providing complete protection from and
resistance to the acids being transported.
As a result the client can look forward to an
extended tanker life cycle and the highest
level of asset protection.
Many tanks, transport tankers and process
plant containing high strength hydrochloric
acid have been coated using polyglass VEf/
Corroglass 600 series with excellent results.
one downside as with most other solutions
traditionally used for this demanding process
environment, is a change in the colour of both
the acid and coating. the hydrochloric acid and
coating will typically change to a red or pink
colour within 24 hours of immersion, with the
colour change on subsequent cargoes of
hydrochloric acid gradually reducing.
in many applications, including where the acid
is used for ph control of waste, well stimulation,
etc., the colour change is of no consequence,
but in other instances this may not be the case.
trials have now shown that use of the polyglass
Ecoflake prevents the initial colour change,
whilst still providing excellent long term
corrosion protection.

Kirloskar Corrocoat has an excellent track record
for protecting a wide range of plant against
corrosion in steel plants throughout india. its latest
contract, won against stiff competition from a
number of international competitors, was from
JSW Steel Limited of dolvi for the internal coating
of slag granulation plant stacks. The stack heights
were approx. 65 metres with diameters ranging from
3.5m to 6m. The operating conditions inside slag
granulation stacks are extremely severe with
temperatures of up to 160°C and abrasion from the
minute particles of slag carried along with the steam.
The internal surfaces of the stacks have now been
protected with Corrothane XT - a three-pack cold
cured vinyl ester urethane polymer alloy with glass
flake. The total area, coated at 1mm dft was 1,500 m2

Corrocoat Composite Structural repair (CSr)
System has now been qualified under BS En iSo
24817:2015
The tensile test work required under the standard was
carried out at Strathclyde Universities Advance
Materials Research Laboratory. The CSR system uses
a combination of Corrocoat specialist coatings
interlayered with GRP composite laminates to repair,
corrosion protect and give structural strength to
pipework and other equipment, at a fraction of the
cost and inconvenience of replacement. It is an ideal
solution for capital process equipment where
corrosion has reduced the wall thickness to below an
acceptable minimum or where damage has occurred.
The constituents of each CSR System are specially
selected to meet individual requirements but in general
terms comprise: Polyglass VE/HA, applied to the
abrasive blast cleaned area as a primer; Corrofill VE to
fill pits on heavily corroded areas and through-wall
defects and high strength multi-directional fibre
composite interlayered with Polyglass VE/HA.

5. Corrocoat USA provides a wide array of
corrosion solutions for the Crowley
Maritime Corporation. A typical recent
project was to corrosion protect three sets
of severely corroded condenser heads and
water boxes and their associated piping.
Since the condenser is the heart of a ship’s
power plant, its reliability and efficiency affect the
overall system performance and it must perform
well over long periods of time under difficult
operating conditions. Corrosion and other
deposits accumulate on inside surfaces
affecting efficiency.
Historically, the company had to replace
condenser heads every two years. However by
preparing and applying Corroglass 600 series
lining, Corrocoat USA has been able to project
a service life of 10+ years.

6. plasmet Zf & ZE provide long term
corrosion protection at Mumbai port
in a competitive tender situation, Kirloskar Corrocoat
was awarded and successfully completed a prestigious
order for Mumbai port trust. the contract was for the
external coating of a pipeline at the Butcher island
complex and involved surface preparation and coating
application both on land and over the sea.
This is a significant project for Kirloskar Corrocoat as it
confirms their ability to compete in the highly competitive,
high volume marine coating market. As one of the few
manufacturers of coating materials to also
execute the work in this segment, the
company is answering a much needed
requirement from customers.
The contract involved abrasive blasting to
ISO 8501-1 SA 2½ standard and then
coating with epoxy glass flake filled
systems Plasmet ZF and Plasmet ZE
to provide long term corrosion protection.
The total area coated was 19,000 m2
.
Mumbai Port is the principal gateway to
India. Butcher Island is also an oil terminal
with jetties for tankers and pipelines for
offloading crude oil and for loading refined
petroleum products. The pipelines have to
cope with aggressive corrosion in this
saline environment and so an advanced
coating system was required to provide
long-term protection against corrosion.
the Shuaiba industrial Area accommodates many of
the large-scale industries in the State of Kuwait. over
30 processing plants are located here, including
petrochemical companies, oil refineries, power plants
and gas companies. there is a huge demand for sea
water for cooling purposes and the Kuwait public
Authority for industry is currently investing in a power
plant renovation programme to ensure that the
demand for cooling water is met in the future.
The contract to re-line Shuaiba Plant B header cooling
water pipes was awarded to Corrocoat Distributor and
Applicator in Kuwait, the Al-Sabaiea Group thanks to its
excellent track record of successfully completed coating
projects for major operators in the oil, gas, and support
industries.
Two 2.2m ductile header pipes each 180m long were
re-lined. Following full surface preparation the following
Corrocoat products were applied. Polyglass VE to fill and
repair pitting, PPA primer to hold the prepared surface and
finally P100 in two coats to achieve an average film
thickness of 1250 μm. Armagel was used on header bends
to resist against erosion and abrasion issues.

7. MCgM is the government body
entrusted with the gigantic task of
providing water to Mumbai – one of
the world’s most highly populated
cities. the city has numerous pumping
stations and Kirloskar Corrocoat
(KCpL) has been working with the
authority to improve pump efficiency
and as a result reduce power
generating costs.
One of Mumbai’s pumping stations is
at Bhandup and KCPL was recently
awarded a contract to improve the
efficiency of six of its split case pumps
by coating key areas with the Corrocoat Fluglide System. The pumps were tested on KCPL’s test bed for
performance, both before and after coating. Results of the tests, which were witnessed by the customer,
have shown that following coating, a saving of 57 kW per hour (a 7% reduction) was achieved and total
savings that MCGM can expect over the next three years will be in the region Rs.6.8M ($100,000)
Corrocoat products and application expertise have
become synonymous with reliable long-term
corrosion protection on a range of capital equipment
in the power generation sector. typical of this is a
recent contract, carried out by Corroserve, to
provide and apply a corrosion resistant system to
protect the substrate and concrete pedestals of a
number of storage tanks.
As a result of a successful repair to a similar tank, the
client requested that the same system be applied to four
more tanks where the metal lip/concrete wall interface
have suffered from corrosion over the years. The contract
involved abrasive blasting the steelwork and concrete
pedestal. The steel work was primed with Polyglass PPA,
pits in the steel and concrete filled with Corrofill VE before
two coats of Polyglass VEF applied to achieve a DFT of
1000 μm. All angles, welds and corner stripes were
coated by hand.
The concrete surfaces were also primed with WCP to a
WFT of 100-150 μm, ensuring the surface is fully wetted
out followd by Polyglass VE/HA and VEF at no more than
300 μm DFT. The interface between the tank lip and
concrete was filled with Corrocoat Flexi-filler and glass
fibre matting. This added a degree of structural strength
before being over coated with Flexicoat to achieve a DFT
of 1000 μm and Polyglass VE Veilcoat to all surfaces.

8. in 1993 Bill Clinton became president of the
United States, Jurassic park was first seen at
the cinema and Corrocoat coated a number of
pipe spools for a leading UK oil refinery.
For over 20 years, the pipe spools have been in
continuous use transporting effluent at the refinery,
and when they were returned recently to Corroserve
for inspection the internal coating was found to be
still intact. The client’s future PPM schedule dictated
that the pipes should be blasted and re-coated both
internally and externally, along with some new
sections, to ensure a lifecycle for another 20
years plus.
Having been blasted internally and externally to ISO
8501-1 SA 2 ½ with a profile of 50 Micron, the
internals were coated with Corroglass 600 Series.
Externally, Plasmet ZF to a DFT of 150 microns was
applied and a final top coat of Corrothane AP1 -
tinted to match the client’s colour scheme.

A huge requirement for cooling water means that power
plants are usually located on coastal sites but the use of
seawater for cooling brings associated problems – a
continuous battle against marine growth on screen intakes.
Marine growth not only reduces water intake size and slows
the speed of flow, it also promotes rapid corrosion on the
structure itself.
Corrocoat Biofoul is a non
toxic anti-foul coating which
provides optimum protection
against biofouling and marine
growth and Corrocoat Japan
has successfully completed a
number of contracts using
this material over the years.
At a nuclear power plant, a
coating performance review
in 2008, showed that a
bucket screen coated with
Biofoul four years earlier, was found to be growth free except on
uncoated areas such as around fixing nuts and bolts. Just these
areas were therefore coated in Biofoul at the time.
After a recent review it was decided to completely re-coat the
screen. Corrocoat Japan completed the work by abrasive blasting
the screen then spray applying Polyglass ZipCoat, and a top coat
of Biofoul to a total
dft of 0.9 mm.
Everyone involved is
now anticipating that
the next review in
four years’ time will
show the same
optimum protection.
