Abstract: A method of treating pipes to render the inner wall of the pipes resistant to corrosion and pre-mature deterioration. For new pipes, the inner wall is cleansed with a solvent, debris removed, and the inner wall dried. The inner wall is then coated with a corrosion-resistant primer and allowed to dry. The last step is to coat the inner wall with a corrosion- and chemical-resistant topcoat. More than one coat of primer and topcoat may be applied. The pipe may be re-treated by pumping a stripper through the inner wall removing all coating followed by cleansing and re-coating as described above.

Abstract: A water based, low VOC coating includes an aqueous dispersion of an amine terminated epoxy resin and an organosilane curing agent of the formula: R1—(CH2)x—Si—(R3)n—(R2)3−n; wherein R1 is an epoxide, an isocyanate, or an acrylic; R2 is an alkoxy group, acetoxy group, or an oximino group; R3 is a C1—C6 alkyl group; X is an integer from 2-10; and n is 0 to 2.

Abstract: A non-chromate, corrosion-inhibiting coating composition for metal surfaces includes at least one inhibitor selected from the group consisting of phosphates, phosphosilicates, silicates, and mixtures thereof, at least one inhibitor selected from the group consisting of titanates, zinc salts, and mixtures thereof, and a carrier for these inhibitors, the carrier capable of placing the inhibitors in proximity with the metal surface. In a preferred embodiment, the coating composition further includes a borate such as boric acid, and a succinate. A preferred phosphate includes calcium dihydrogen phosphate, and sodium titanium oxide is a preferred titanate. The zinc salt can include zinc phosphate or zinc cyanamide.
