surface which can result is very aggressive corrosion, see Figure 3-3.
Coatings are generally used to protect steel structures in industrial
environments.
Coatings are used to protect underground piping. Cathodic protection
can be used to provide supplemental corrosion control for underground
piping.

Coating Performance
Performance requirements for external coatings are described in
Section 192.461 for gas pipelines. In general, these performance
requirements are a good idea for all buried or submerged pipeline
coating, even if the pipeline is not regulated.
Surface preparation is a very important step and often the most over
looked when applying a protective coating. The coating manufactures
recommendations should be followed as a minimum. Frequently,
owner specifications will call for additional surface preparation and
testing such as increased levels of cleaning (e.g. requiring a NACE
1/SSPC-SP5 white metal blast clean), measuring surface profile,
measuring surface salt contamination, and a phosphoric acid rinses.
Good surface preparation can enhance many of the properties needed
for good coating performance.
For buried or submerged piping surface adhesion is important.
Adhesion affects cathodic disbondment, under film creep, and
migration of water under the coating film.
Ductility and abrasion resistance are important in reducing damage to
the coating curing handling and installation. Abrasion resistance and
adhesion are also important to the preventing damage by soil stress.
Federal regulations (Office of Pipeline Safety (OPS)) require that
external protective coatings have all of these properties as given in the
section below from 49 CFR Part 192 for gas pipelines.
