              AMPP STANDARDS

              Featured Standards: 

              AMPP TM21442-2023, Test Method for Evaluation of Protective Coatings for Use Under Insulation

               

              This AMPP standard test method provides a comprehensive methodology to evaluate the relative performance of coatings in accelerated and simulated field conditions under insulation. This test method is intended for use by corrosion control personnel, design engineers, project managers, purchasing personnel, and construction engineers and managers. It is applicable to insulated piping and equipment in the oil and gas gathering, distribution, transmission, refining, and chemical industries.

               

              Corrosion Under Insulation (CUI) test methods currently available in the industry do not mimic field conditions are based on a pass-fail criterion conducted for a fixed exposure time and are unsuitable for estimating coating service life and performance. This AMPP standard provides a comprehensive test methodology to simulate field conditions under insulation in order to establish the performance of a coating in service.
