1997 Tri-Service Conference on Corrosion, November 17-21, 1997, Blockade Runner Hotel, Wrightsville Beach, NC. Vol. 2 - Proceedings.

Abstract

Several protection strategies for coastal infrastructure using thermal-spray technology are presented from research at the Albany Research Center. Thermal-sprayed zinc coatings for anodes in impressed current cathodic protection systems are used to extend the service lives of reinforced concrete bridges along the Oregon coast. Thermal-sprayed Ti is examined as an alternative to the consumable zinc anode. Sealed thermal-sprayed A1 is examined as an alternative coating to zinc dust filled polyurethane paint for steel structures.
