Coating equipment
Thread Content
May I ask specifically which equipment and pipelines need to be protected? This anti-corrosion, insulation, and cold protection measures refer to coatings, right? Is painting also considered a type of coating?
Insulation, heat retention, and protection are achieved through insulation layers; an additional protective layer is placed outside these insulation layers to safeguard the insulating material. It depends on the process requirements to determine whether insulation or cooling is necessary; generally, steam pipes in utility systems require insulation, while chilled brine requires cooling. In other words, refrigerants and heating media usually need either insulation or cooling. As for process pipelines, it depends on the requirements. Protection usually means applying heat. As for the anti-corrosion you mentioned. It should be anti-corrosion paint applied to pipes or equipment. When painting, two coats of primer are usually applied first, followed by two coats of topcoat. The topcoat serves an anti-corrosion purpose. Austenitic stainless steel does not require anti-corrosion paint. Because the material itself is resistant to corrosion.
Anticorrosion, thermal insulation, and cold insulation shouldn’t be considered coatings, right? Does \"coating\" refer to applying paint? Please clarify your question
I saw that the information on coatings in the chemical engineering English-Chinese dictionary includes all the points I mentioned above! ! ! !
The coating is usually applied by painting, and it serves to prevent corrosion. In our previous company, we worked on carbon steel equipment; the thickness of the internal coating was 1200μm, and painting definitely meant applying paint
