Real problems facing users
▪ Budgetary pressures
▪ Increasingly complex production processes
▪ Reduced turnaround opportunities and durations
▪ Better understanding of coatings limits (adds complexity)
▪ Numerous coating options (more recent years)
▪ Lack of definitive guidance
▪ Recommendation
▪ Testing
▪ It’s a complex issue!

▪ No micro-cracking improved CUI resistance
▪ Scheme thickness can have significant impact
▪ Pigment type will affect barrier properties
▪ Inert multipolymer matrix type materials
▪ Improves on current options across ‘High temperatures’
▪ Provides resistance to CUI / atmospheric corrosion after high
temperature exposure
