Features: This book focuses on the failure analysis methods of heavy-duty anticorrosive coatings and coating defects. It covers the causes of coating failure, the relationship between coatings, coating application, and coating failure, possible failure modes of various coatings, physical and chemical methods for coating failure analysis, instrumental analysis methods, work procedures for coating failure analysis, and the repair of failed coatings. Additionally, it provides detailed explanations of failure analysis techniques through numerous coating failure analysis case studies. Coating failure analysis serves two purposes: identifying the causes of failure, determining responsibility, and facilitating claims; and learning from experience, accumulating case studies, and avoiding recurrence of similar issues. This book can serve as a reference for coating and coating application technicians and managers, as well as for students majoring in coating-related fields at colleges and universities.
