11、 Sixth Floor Pittsburgh, PA 15222 (telephone +1 412/281-2331) Printed by NACE InternationalNACE No. 3/SSPC-SP 6 NACE International i _ Foreword This joint standard covers the use of blast cleaning abrasives to achieve a defined degree of cleaning of steel surfaces prior to the application of a prote

12、ctive coating or lining system. This standard is intended for use by coating or lining specifiers, applicators, inspectors, or others who may be responsible for defining a standard degree of surface cleanliness. The focus of this standard is commercial blast cleaning. White metal blast cleaning, nea

13、r-white metal blast cleaning, industrial blast cleaning, and brush-off blast cleaning are addressed in separate standards. Commercial blast cleaning provides a greater degree of cleaning than industrial blast cleaning (NACE No. 8/SSPC-SP 141) but less than near-white metal blast cleaning (NACE No. 2

14、/SSPC-SP 102). Commercial blast cleaning is used when the objective is to remove all visible oil, grease, dust, dirt, mill scale, rust, coating, oxides, corrosion products, and other foreign matter, leaving staining or shadows on no more than 33 percent of each unit area of surface. The difference b

15、etween a commercial blast cleaning and a near-white metal blast cleaning is in the amount of staining permitted to remain on the surface. Commercial blast cleaning allows stains or shadows on 33 percent of each unit area of surface. Near-white metal blast cleaning allows staining or shadows on only

16、5 percent of each unit area of surface. The difference between a commercial blast cleaning and an industrial blast cleaning is that a commercial blast cleaning removes all visible oil, grease, dust, dirt, mill scale, rust, coating, oxides, corrosion products, and other foreign matter from all surfac

17、es and allows stains to remain on 33 percent of each unit area of surface, while industrial blast cleaning allows defined mill scale, coating, and rust to remain on less than 10 percent of each unit area of surface and allows defined stains to remain on all surfaces. This joint standard was original

18、ly prepared in 1994 and reaffirmed in 1999 by the SSPC/NACE Task Group (TG) A on Surface Preparation by Abrasive Blast Cleaning. This joint TG includes members of both the SSPC Surface Preparation Committee and the NACE Unit Committee T-6G on Surface Preparation. It was reaffirmed in 2006 by NACE Sp

19、ecific Technology Group (STG) 04, Protective Coatings and Linings: Surface Preparation, and the SSPC Surface Preparation Committee. In NACE/SSPC standards, the terms shall, must, should, and may are used in accordance with Paragraph 2.2.1.8 of the Agreement Between NACE International and SSPC: The S

20、ociety for Protective Coatings. The terms shall and must are used to state mandatory requirements. The term should is used to state something considered good and is recommended but is not mandatory. The term may is used to state something considered optional. _ NACE No. 3/SSPC-SP 6 ii NACE Internati

25、pendix A. _ Section 2: Definitions 2.1 Commercial Blast Cleaned Surface: A commercial blast cleaned surface, when viewed without magnification, shall be free of all visible oil, grease, dust, dirt, mill scale, rust, coating, oxides, corrosion products, and other foreign matter. Random staining shall

26、 be limited to no more than 33 percent of each unit area of surface (approximately 5,800 mm29.0 in.2) (i.e., a square 76 mm x 76 mm 3.0 in. x 3.0 in.) and may consist of light shadows, slight streaks, or minor discolorations caused by stains of rust, stains of mill scale, or stains of previously app

27、lied coating. 2.1.1 Acceptable variations in appearance that do not affect surface cleanliness as defined in Paragraph2.1 include variations caused by type of steel, original surface condition, thickness of the steel, weld metal, mill or fabrication marks, heat treating, heat-affected zones, blastin

28、g abrasives, and differences because of blasting technique. 2.1.2 SSPC-VIS 13may be specified to supplement the written definition. In any dispute, the written definition set forth in this standard shall take precedence over reference photographs and comparators. Additional information on reference

38、t abrasive blast cleaning is in Paragraph A5 of Appendix A. _ Section 6: Blast Cleaning Abrasives 6.1 The selection of abrasive size and type shall be based on the type, grade, and surface condition of the steel to be cleaned, the type of blast cleaning system used, the finished surface to be produc

39、ed (cleanliness and surface profile roughness), and whether the abrasive will be recycled. 6.2 The cleanliness and size of recycled abrasives shall be maintained to ensure compliance with this standard. 6.3 The blast cleaning abrasive shall be dry and free of oil, grease, and other contaminants as d

40、etermined by the test methods found in SSPC-AB 1, SSPC-AB 2, and SSPC-AB 3. 6.4 Any limitations on the use of specific abrasives, the quantity of contaminants, or the degree of allowable embedment shall be included in the procurement documents (project specification) covering the work, because abras

41、ive embedment and abrasives containing contaminants may not be acceptable for some service requirements. Additional information on abrasive selection is in Paragraph A6 of Appendix A. 6.5 When a coating is specified, the cleaned surface shall be roughened to a degree suitable for the specified coati

The chosen method

45、 shall comply with all applicable regulations. 7.2.2 Moisture separators, oil separators, traps, or other equipment may be necessary to achieve clean, dry air. 7.3 After blast cleaning, any remaining surface imperfections (e.g., sharp fins, sharp edges, weld spatter, burning slag, scabs, slivers) sh

46、all be removed to the extent required by the procurement documents (project specification). Any damage to the surface profile resulting from the removal of surface imperfections shall be corrected to meet the requirements of Paragraph 6.5. Additional information on surface imperfections is in Paragr
