24. Fluoropolymers: The unbeatable resin technology for water tank topcoats (Feat. Jeremy Sukola and Kristen Blankenship) 39:53

15 days ago39:53

39:53

Summary Fluoropolymer-based finish coats are the premier performers for elevated water storage tanks in exterior exposures. The specialty FEVE resin on which they are based withstands intense UV radiation, high winds, and intense precipitation while holding gloss and color for decades. And while all of that comes at a cost, water industry expert Jeremy Sukola and chemistry nerd Kristen Blankenship explain how that cost represents a long-term investment that boasts a handsome return. In this episode of The Red Bucket, learn the chemistry, use cases, and regulatory considerations of fluoropolymer topcoats. Also, Kristen ponders the Atlantic Ocean from the top of a cliff, and Jeremy shares a strong opinion about spaghetti sauce.

35:57

Summary Acrylamide grout technology dominates the underground wastewater collection leak sealing landscape. Legacy dry-granule and modern liquid variants give operators tremendous flexibility to address challenges of almost any scope or scale. But how do acrylamides work? Why do they work so well? And what do municipalities or private network owners need to know about how they fit into the broader maintenance and repair ecosystem? Michael Vargo of Prime Resins is the man with the answers. Also, Michael considers what it would be like to be 6’10”.

21. Zinc and a comparison of painting, galvanizing, and metalizing (Feat. Kristen Blankenship) 32:10

15 weeks ago32:10

32:10

It's taken for granted in the corrosion industry that zinc protects steel. But there's more than one way to put zinc on steel and more than one mechanism at work that makes it so protective. Kristen Blankenship returns to The Red Bucket to answer some big questions with even bigger implications: What's zinc actually doing on painted, galvanized, and metalized surfaces? How do these corrosion protection methods compare in terms of performance? Does the standard "zinc-epoxy-urethane" coating system hold zinc-rich primers back from performing as well as they could on their own? How many ISO 12944-9 testing cycles will it take before any corrosion appears on panels coated in a two-coat inorganic system? Kristen also contemplates the deathbed of a lonely scientist. 00:00 – Intro 02:13 – A very brief history of cathodic protection 04:05 – Electron chemistry explains behavior 06:15 – Summarizing galvanizing, metalizing, and painting 14:15 – Silicate resin technology is understudied 15:47 – Comparing adhesion of each method 17:09 – Engineers understand paint differently than the other methods 20:16 – Surprising results from cyclic aging testing of a two-coat inorganic system 23:43 – Why is paint held to a higher standard? 26:48 – Zinc loading and a sustainability comparison Find out more at https://carboline-tech-service-podcast.pinecast.co…
