Corrosion Control Systems

In the corrosion control, there are some procedures to extend the life of the metal surfaces and to make the desired quality coating. Surface quality is largely dependent on surface preparation before coating.

The most commonly used and most effective method of removing the effects of corrosion is the coating of the surface with materials resistant to external factors. The surface preparation before of these coatings is the basic of the coating quality.

Sandblasting is a method used to provide the roughness required for the paint to adhere to the surface and to homogenize the surface and to clean rust, lime, oil and paint residue on the metal surface.

As the application, blasting is the process of impacting the granule with high-pressure air. During this impingement, the granule abrades the surface at the micron level and at the same time cleans the surface. Special pressure blasting pots are used for sandblasting application. The degree of roughness desired on the surface depends on the type, size, shape and application pressure of the abrasive granule used.

Blasting process should be done in special facilities suitable for sandblasting and these facilities must be installed in accordance with the Environmental Health Standards and Safety Rules.
