AMPP Resources The History of Protective Coating Use in Commercial Nuclear Power Plants (e-book) 37618-E

THIS IS A DOWNLOADABLE E-BOOK : Open this e-book with an e-book reader. Since the early 1950’s, the requirements for use of protective coatings in nuclear power generating facilities have been evolving. Unfortunately, the historical reasons for this evolution have not been well documented. For the first time, this book presents a detailed technical and regulatory chronology of nuclear power plant protective coatings technology, requirements, and testing protocols from 1951 to the present. Some of the key personnel involved in these evolutionary activities are no longer active in the industry, but the author has had the privilege of working with them in the past and has included their contributions. “The History of Protective Coating Use in Power Generation Facilities” is designed to serve both as a desk reference for protective coatings professionals and a teaching tool for individuals entering the nuclear plant protective coatings industry. 2016 by NACE
