Exceptions to these minimum designa-tions can be considered when the environmental conditions areof low corrosive potential, such

36、as a very dry climate. In thesecases, a lower coating weight mass, for example, G60 Z180may be appropriate. Similarly, for very corrosive environ-ments, the user should consider specifying a coating designa-tion with a heavier coating weight mass.4.2 The organic coating typically consists of a prime
