... Pressurized Atlas Cell Atlas Cell Immersion Test protocols Adhesion INTRODUCTION A LITTLE HISTORY Before we visit the trends in tank lining test methods over the past few decades, it may be of interest to understand the dynamics that likely drove those trends. Below is a brief timeline illustrating some...

...Abstract Pressurized Atlas Cell Testing is commonly understood to be an aggressive accelerated test for lining systems due the combination of pressure, temperature and a thermal gradient across the coating film known as the Cold Wall Effect. This is especially true when Carbon Dioxide...

... focused on performance under immersion conditions and included Soak Adhesion, Cathodic Disbondment, Standard Atlas Cell, Pressurized Atlas Cell, and Autoclave. The different tests were used to examine the effects of temperature, pressure, thermal gradient, cathodic protection, acid gases and different...

... Disbondment; Soak Adhesion; Standard Atlas Cell; Pressurized Atlas Cell and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). Results demonstrated significant differences in the performance of the coatings, indicating that certain products would be expected to give significantly longer protection to the steel...
