Aviation fuel supply is an essential matter for airports. They need to be able to rely on a smooth supply chain and adequate storage facilities to maintain the fuel quality till the moment it will be consumed in the aircrafts. <\/div>\n

In 2009, the Energy Institute<\/a> developed the first editon of the\u00a0EI 1541 with the support of the all major oil companies, setting the requirements for internal protective coating systems used in aviation fuel handling systems.<\/p>\n

Until 2016, these testing requirements were quite similar to the military specification MIL-PRF-4556F and therefore, coating complying\u00a0to that specification were accepted to be used. In general, most common immersion grade epoxies proved to be acceptable to the old standard.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, in October 2016, a second\u00a0edition was issued by the Energy Institute and it introduced major changes to the performance requirements. An important change was eliminating MIL-PRF-4556F as acceptance performance standard, but instead referring to the more technically demanding DEF-STAN 80-97 or MIL-PRF-23236D.\u00a0In addition some other tests\u00a0were added, resulting in a more severe test\u00a0protocol and clearly demanding for protective coating systems with a higher chemical resistance profile.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Within the Transocean range of products, several products would fit the description of being a chemical resistant lining but in the end three Transocean epoxy products with proven chemical resistance were selected, tested by an external laboratory and subsequently passed the requirements of EI 1541-2016 performance standard:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Transpoxy Novacure HR,\u00a0 <\/strong>a polyamine cured phenolic epoxy offering a good dry heat resistance and an excellent resistance to hydrocarbons.<\/li>\n
  2. Transpoxy Tankguard 458, <\/strong>a pure phenolic epoxy with an excellent resistance to a large variety\u00a0of\u00a0chemicals and ideal for hydrocarbons.\u00a0<\/li>\n
  3. Transpoxy Novacure 488<\/strong>, a solventfree phenolic epoxy suitable for steel as well as\u00a0concrete and particularly appreciated for its fast return to service.\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
