The US Thermal-Spray Standards Program:
Thermal-spray standards in the United States are developed by several professional
societies that include American Society for Testing and Measurement (ASTM) for test &
measurements methods and composition specifications; American Welding Society (AWS)
for feedstock, equipment acceptance, application process, training & certification;
American Water Works Association (AWWA) for thermal-spray zinc potable water tank
linings; International Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) for corrosion application
processes and inspection; and Society of Protective Coatings (SSPC) for test &
measurement methods, application specification & inspection in regards to protective
coatings for the protection of steel.
US Published Standards:
C2.16-92 , Guide for Thermal-Spray Operator Qualification .
This guide sets forth recommended thermal-spray operator qualification procedures. It
covers applicable documents relating to thermal-spray equipment, consumables, and
safety. It also contains operator qualification and coating system analysis forms.
AWS C2.18-93, Guide for the Protection of Steel with Thermal Sprayed Coatings of
Aluminum and Zinc and Their Alloys and Composites . This guide sets forth
recommended thermal-spray operator qualification procedures. It covers applicable
documents relating to thermal-spray equipment consumables, and safety. It also contains
operator qualification and coating analysis forms. Note: This standard is being
incorporated into ANSI/AWS C2.18A-XX/SSPC CS 23.00A-XX/NACE TPC #XA,
Guide for
the Application of Thermal Spray Coatings (Metalizing) of Aluminum, Zinc, and Their Alloys
& Composites for the Corrosion Protection of Steel
, in preparation.
SSPC CS 23.00, Guide for Thermal Spray Metallic Coating Systems.
This guide covers the requirements of thermal-spray metallic coatings, with and
without, sealers and topcoats, as a means to prevent the corrosion of steel surfaces.
Types of metallic coatings include pure zinc, pure aluminum and zinc/aluminum
alloy, 85% zinc/15%luminum by weight. Note: This standard is being incorporated
into ANSI/AWS C2.18A-XX/SSPC CS 23.00A-XX/NACE TPC #XA,

ASTM C 633, Test Method for Adhesion or Cohesive Strength of Flame-Sprayed
Coatings.
This test method covers the determination of the degree of adhesion (bonding strength) of
a coating to a substrate, or the cohesive strength of the coating in a tension normal to the
surface. The test consists of coating one face of a loading fixture, and subjecting this
assembly of coating and fixtures to a tensile load normal to the plane of the coating.
