Thermal sprayed aluminium (TSA) coatings are widely specified for the protection of steels from aqueous corrosion in seawater environment e.g. offshore structures, risers, pipe components and ship structures.
Toughness, low maintenance requirements, and long-term service life are among the desirable properties offered by TSA coatings for offshore applications. The basic properties of a TSA coating for long-term service are its barrier characteristics combined with good adhesion and an ability to provide cathodic protection to exposed steel.
Key Features of TSA are:
- No mixing is required before application
- Effective corrosion protection immediately
- No VOC’s
- The scarification action of aluminium prevents corrosion from edges and discontinuities
Key Benefits of TSA:
- Massive reduction in downtime
- Maintenance free
- Prolongs the life of your assets
