11、i _ Foreword This standard recommended practice presents guidelines for establishing minimum requirements to ensure proper material selection, application, and inspection of pipeline liquid-epoxy coatings used for the repair and rehabilitation of previously coated pipelines and for coating field joi
12、nts on the external surfaces of pipe. This standard is intended for use by corrosion control personnel, design engineers, project managers, purchasers, and construction engineers and managers. Coating selection for repair, rehabilitation, and field joints on buried steel pipelines is determined by s
13、pecific criteria relating to the project to be executed. In some cases, the factors limiting coating selection are similar to those considered during new pipeline coating activities, but when a pipeline is coated in the field there are additional factors that must be considered. Liquid-epoxy coating
14、 repair, rehabilitation, or field joint coating can be applied in, over, or beside a ditch, whether the pipeline is in service, out of service, or segmented. Application is dependent on many factors, including temperature. This standard was prepared by NACE Task Group 247 on Coatings, Liquid Epoxy f
15、or External Repair, Rehabilitations, and Weld Joints on Buried Steel Pipelines. This Task Group is administered by Specific Technology Group (STG) 03 on Coatings and Linings, Protective: Immersion and Buried Service. It is also sponsored by STG 04 on Coatings and Linings, Protective: Surface Prepara
16、tion, and STG 35 on Pipelines, Tanks, and Well Casings. This standard is issued by NACE under the auspices of STG 03. In NACE standards, the terms shall, must, should, and may are used in accordance with the definitions of these terms in the NACE Publications Style Manual, 4th ed., Paragraph 7.4.1.9
17、. 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.

24、rly with such equipment. 1.6 The coating inspector (company representative) shall have access at all times to the work performed, in accordance with the company specifications, and shall have the right to inspect such work and all material furnished by the applicator. 1.7 For surface preparation and
25、 coating applications the applicator shall use coating personnel, equipment, and procedures that have been prequalified by the manufacturer and approved by the owner. 1.8 Users of this standard shall be responsible for specifying applicable safety, health, and environmental practices to ensure compl
26、iance with all applicable regulations, including compliance with insurance requirements and directives. _ Section 2: Definitions Applicator: The organization responsible for the coating application. Backfill: Material placed in a hole to fill the space around the anodes, vent pipe, and buried compon
27、ents of a cathodic protection system.

Batch: The quantity of co
28、ating material produced during a continuous production run of not more than eight hours (h). Coating: A liquid, liquefiable, or mastic composition that, after application to a surface, is converted into a solid protective, decorative, or functional adherent film. Cutback: The length of pipe left unc
29、oated at each end for joining purposes (e.g., welding). Epoxy: Type of resin formed by the reaction of aliphatic or aromatic polyols (like bisphenol) with epichlorohydrin and characterized by the presence of reactive oxirane end groups. Holiday: A discontinuity in a protective coating that exposes u
30、nprotected surface to the environment. Inspector: The authorized agent of the owner. Owner: The owner company or the authorized agency that purchases the coating or coated pipe.
