This guide provides general information on the description, selection and applications of zinc-rich coatings, and the selection of topcoats. Zinc-rich coatings are highly pigmented primer coatings that are uniquely defined by their capability of galvanically protecting steel exposed at discontinuities such as narrow scratches and holidays. While the major pigment component in a zinc-rich coating is zinc dust, the vehicle may be inorganic or organic. Zinc-rich coatings are classified as follows: Type IA--Inorganic - postcured, water-borne, alkali-silicates; Type IB--Inorganic - selfcured, water-borne, alkali-silicates; Type IC--Inorganic - selfcured, solvent-borne, alkyl-silicates; Type IIA--Organic - thermoplastic binders; Type IIB--Organic - thermoset binders. Certain zinc-rich coating systems are suitable for use in protecting steel surfaces either topcoated or untopcoated. Zinc-rich systems are not suitable for certain exposure conditions. (top)
This specification covers a one-coat zinc-rich painting system to be used on steel in mild to moderately severe environments. This system is suitable for use on parts or structures exposed in Environmental Zone 3B (chemical, neutral). It is not recommended for environments where corrosive contaminants will have a pH below 5 or above 9 or severely corrosive environments. The system is recommended as a durable shop primer or as a protective one-coat system for normal atmospheric weathering environments and certain immersion services. This specification does not pertain to weldable prefabrication zinc-rich primers which are applied at lower thicknesses (one mil [25 microns] or less). Further information regarding these and other zinc-rich primers can be found in SSPC-PS Guide 12.00, "Guide for Selecting Zinc-Rich Painting Systems." (top)

This guide covers painting systems for ship bottoms from the keel to the light load line on steel ships. The area from the light load line to the deep load line, more commonly called the boottop area, may also be coated with these systems; however, SSPC-PS Guide 20.00 covers painting systems for this area. It should be noted that boottops are rarely used with today's commercial ships, and bottom systems may extend up to the deep load line. These coating systems may also be used for other floating or stationary structures exposed to or submerged in salt or brackish water. This would include barges, buoys, oceanographic installations, etc. (top)
This guide covers painting systems for the protection of the exterior boottop areas (the area from the light load line to the deep load line) of steel ships. It should be noted that boottops are rarely used with today's commercial ships and bottom systems may extend up to the deep load line. In general, the anti-corrosive and anti-fouling paints covered in SSPC-PS Guide 19.00 are applicable to boottop areas. (top)
This guide covers painting systems for the protection of the topside or exterior area of steel ships.
