Abstract
In the mid-1990s, new environmental restrictions forced changes in many industries, but especially in offshore drilling and metal finishing. These changes required modifications to fluoropolymer coatings then in use that would improve chemical resistance and lower volatile-organic-compound emissions. Today, after more than 5 years in service, the new coatings have actually proven to be an improvement over their solvent-borne predecessors.
