Effect of Surface Preparation Method on MIL-PRF-24667 Nonskid Performance
Abstract
This report provides the results of MIL-PRF-24667 nonskid coating systems applied to steel substrates that were prepared using various commercial surface preparation methods. The surface preparation methods selected for testing were NACE 2/SSPC-SP 10 using angular mineral grit (SP 10 Grit), NACE 2/SSPC-SP 10 using rounded steel shot (SP 10 Shot), NACE 3/SSPC-SP 6 using angular mineral grit (SP 6 Grit), and NACE/SSPC-SP WJ-2/L using fresh water (UHPWJ). A combination of MIL-PRF-24667 tests and other custom tests developed by the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) were performed to evaluate the nonskid coatings adhesion and resistance to undercutting corrosion when applied over the various surface conditions. A demonstration was also performed on an active USN ship to compare preparation methods (production rates, surface profile measurements, and in-service performance) on a large scale, over severely weathered (i.e., pitted) steel.
