8 AUGUST 2017 MATERIALS PERFORMANCE NACE INTERNATIONAL: VOL. 56, NO. 8 Discussed this Month Following are just a few of the articles featured this month on www.materialsperformance.com. Features Drone Shows Promise in Measuring Coating Thickness The Smart Bee drone is capable of flying to a location, touching a probe to the surface, and successfully taking a nondestructive measurement of the dry film thickness. Specification and Inspection Play a Vital Role in Coating Steel Structures Basic concepts are presented for young corrosion engineers to improve skills on coating specification and inspection that will impact structural steel painting work. Editor's Choice Detecting Corrosive Sulfides Poses Challenges for U.S. Shale Operators Many modern tests focusing on the detection of sulfate-reducing bacteria as corrosive agents in metal oil and gas pipelines could be missing a separate bacterial family also responsible for corrosion. High Pressure Key to Lighter, Stronger Metal Alloys Based on their study results, researchers at Stanford University suggest that high pressure could be the key to developing advanced metal mixtures that are lighter, stronger, and more resistant to heat and corrosion than conventional alloys.
