32、ndprocesses be audited by an independent certification program for coatingapplicator plants such as that provided by the Voluntary CertificationProgram or equivalent.5. Materials5.1 Steel reinforcing bars to be coated shall meet therequirements of one of the following specifications: A615M,A706M, or
33、 A996M A615, A706, or A996 as specified by thepurchaser and shall be free of contaminates such as oil, grease,or paint.NOTE 3Prior to coating, the steel reinforcing bars should be inspectedfor their suitability for coating. Bars with sharp edges on the deformations,rolled-in slivers, or other surfac
34、e imperfections are difficult to coatproperly and should not be coated. The coating will flow away from thesharp edges and may result in inadequate coating thickness at these points.5.2 Zinc-Alloy Wire:5.2.1 The thermal spray coating feedstock material shall bespecified according to Specification B8
35、33 or to AWS C2.25/C2.25M.5.2.2 The wire shall conform to one of the chemicalcomposition requirements prescribed in Table 1.5.2.3 The wire shall be clean and free of corrosion, adheringforeign material, scale, seams, nicks, burrs, and other defectswhich would interfere with the operation of thermal
36、sprayingequipment. The wire shall uncoil readily and be free of bendsor kinks that would prevent its passage through the thermalspray gun.5.2.4 The wire shall be a continuous length per spool, coil,or drum. Splices or welds are permitted, provided that they donot interfere with the thermal spray equ
37、ipment or coatingprocess.5.2.5 The starting end of each coil shall be tagged toindicate winding direction and to be readily identifiable withASTM designation.5.3 Powder Coating:5.3.1 The powder coating shall meet the requirements ofAnnex A1. Upon request, the purchaser shall be provided withthe test
38、 report for review.5.3.2 A written certification shall be furnished to the pur-chaser that properly identifies the number of each lot of powdercoating used in the order material quantity represented, datemanufacture, name and address of the powder coating manu-facturer, and a statement that the supp
39、lied powder coating is thesame composition as that qualified according to Annex A1 ofthis specification.5.3.3 The powder coating shall be stored in a temperature-controlled environment following the written recommenda-tions of the powder coating manufacturer until ready for use.At that point, if the
40、 storage temperature is below the plantambient temperature, the powder coating shall be given suffi-cient time to reach approximate plant ambient temperature.The powder coating shall be used within the powder coatingmanufacturers written recommended shelf life.5.4 If specified in the order, a repres
41、entative 8-oz 0.2-kgsample of the powder coating shall be supplied to the purchaserfrom each batch. The sample shall be packaged in an airtightcontainer and identified by batch number.5.5 If specified in the order, patching material compatiblewith the coating, inert in concrete, and approved by the
42、powdercoating manufacturer, shall be supplied to the purchaser.6. Surface Preparation6.1 The surface of the steel reinforcing bars to be coatedshall be cleaned by abrasive blast cleaning to near-white metalin accordance with SSPC-SP 10. The following visual standardof comparison may be used to defin
43、e the final surface condi-tion: SSPC-VIS 1. Average blast profile maximum roughnessdepth readings of 1.5 to 4.0 mils 0.04 to 0.10 mm asdetermined by replica tape measurements using NACE RP-287, shall be considered suitable as an anchor pattern.NOTE 4The use of a “profilometer”-type surface measureme
44、nt instru-ment that measures the peak count as well as the maximum profile depthis recommended.NOTE 5Abrasive blast cleaning of steel reinforcing bars with a highdegree (90 %) of grit in the cleaning media provides the most suitableanchor profile for coating adhesion. After grit has been recycled, a
45、 smallportion will take on the appearance of shot.6.2 Multidirectional, high-pressure dry air knives shall beused after blasting to remove dust, grit, and other foreignmatter from the blast-cleaned steel surface. The air knives shallnot deposit oil on the steel reinforcing bars.NOTE 6It is recommend
46、ed that incoming steel reinforcing bars andblast media be checked for salt contamination prior to use. Blast mediafound to be salt contaminated should be rejected. Steel reinforcing barsfound to be salt contaminated from exposure to deicing salts or salt sprayshould be cleaned by acid washing or oth
47、er suitable methods to removesalt contaminants from the surface prior to blast cleaning.7. Coating Application7.1 A thin zinc-alloy layer shall be applied by a thermal arcspray (metallization) system directly after the blast cleaningand before the powder coating in accordance withAWS C2.23M/C2.23 an
48、d the written specification of the zincalloy supplier.7.1.1 Thermal spray equipment shall be set up, calibrated,and operated according to the manufacturers instructions andtechnical manuals or the Thermal Coating Spray applicatorsrecommendation.7.2 The zinc-alloy coating shall be applied to the clea
49、nedsteel reinforcing bar surface as soon as possible after the barhas been cleaned and before visible oxidation of the surfaceoccurs as discernible to a person with normal or correctedvision. In no case shall application of the coating be delayedmore than 30 minutes after cleaning.7.3 The fusion-bonded epoxy powder coating shall beapplied in accordance with Specification A775/A775M and thewritten recommendations of the manufacturer of the powdercoating for initial
