LNG storage tank anti-corrosion measures
A crucial determinant of LNG storage tank anti-corrosion performance is the strong atmospheric corrosiveness of the coastal region.
A crucial determinant of LNG storage tank anti-corrosion performance is the strong atmospheric corrosiveness of the coastal region. Using organic non-metallic coatings to shield metal surfaces from corrosion is one common anti-corrosion technique. By creating a thin layer on the metal surface, the coating isolates the corrosive medium and shields the metal.
The coating often uses a multi-layer coating that is thick enough to improve the anti-corrosion effect. Moreover, metal pigments that can be used as sacrificial anode materials can be incorporated into the coating to shield the metal substrate from corrosion.
