What are Henkel and what do they do?

What is the roll for pipe repair systems?

Most of these repairs are completed with the Plant still operating
Therefore reducing the massive costs incurred with an Unplanned Shutdown
What sort of defects are found in practice?

Defect design Type A:

The defect is within the substrate, not through-wall and not expected to become through-wall within
the lifetime of the repair system, requiring structural reinforcement only.
Defect design Type B:
The substrate requires structural reinforcement and sealing of through-wall defects (leaks).(ISO/TS
24871)
The remaining wall thickness at the end of service life is expected to be less than 1 mm.(ISO/TS
24871)
What are the requirements for the repair systems?
What are the physical and functional properties that are required?
How might you effect the repair how to prepare the site?

Cleaning -Remove surface contaminations (oil, grease, salt, acid, alkali, chemical residue,
etc.)
Can consist of several steps (e.g. to remove any salt)
Abrasive blasting (using ALUMINIUM OXIDE Corundum) / wire brushing / grinding
-Remove solid surface layers (paint, corrosion, oxides etc.), to achieve the right surface
profile. The surface should be a defined surface for durable repair.
Final cleaning - remove any dust from the abrasive blasting, because mechanical treatments
do not remove oils, greases, lubrication, fluids, finger prints, cutting fluids. Surface
Act fast from start to application of repair is less than 3 hours, because time runs against flash
rust risk.

How do you validate the design?

The operator needs to know the design operating pressure, plus the max operating pressure,
the pressure during installation, the operating temperature and the installation tempexplain
why.
What is the geometry of the existing pipe including the wall thickness and the minimum
remaining wall thickness and the landing area for the repair as well as the size of the
corrosion zone. Formulating

Then the material properties including the modulus and the strength need to be considered.
Add in a safety factor then use the hoop stress and axial stress calculations found in the
standards. This defines the number of layers of composite that have to be applied.

Is there any post installation treatment required?

Ensure that an adequate cure time has taken place. What determines the time required?
Apply Loctite 7255 as protective coating this is 2 component epoxy protective coating.
Filled with ceramic particles which does what?
