TANK COATINGS
• GENERAL
• The advantages of tank coatings can be
summarised as follows:
• 1 Prevention of cargo contamination by the
absence of corrosion.
• 2. Preservation of cargo purity.
• 3. Ease of cleaning and gas freeing.
• 4. Ease of inspection.
• 5. Improved safety.
• 6. Protection of steel structure from cargo.

• Limitations of Phenolic Epoxy Coatings
• Absorbs cargoes to high levels
• (depending on cargo)
• Releases absorbed cargo very slowly
• Small traces may be retained
• Subsequent cargo contamination

• Limitations of Zinc Silicate Coatings
• Absorbs cargo quickly
• Retains oil like cargoes
• Subsequent cargo contamination
• Not resistant to acids, caustics, and acid-containing
oils and urea

STAINLESS STEEL
•
• Stainless steel offers excellent resistance to
the majority of cargoes and is the preffered
option for aggressive cargoes such as
Methanol. The steel specification used in
vessels is normally 316L, the tanks are
“cladded” with stainless steel and it should
be realised that the thickness of this
cladding may only be 2-4mm. Close
inspection of the stainless steel is required at
frequent intervals for any signs of cracking or
pitting. Any repairs are only to be carried
out after authorisation from the office. The
repairs will also require “pickling” and
