In many industrial service conditions, the corrosion is not so severe that more rugged acid-proof brick or tile lining is required. Instead, simpler protective measures, such as coatings and screedings, are sufficient for the requirements. This approach is particularly applicable for light corrosive exposure, such as rare or occasional spills, and in modern manufacturing plants where automation minimizes the risk of spills through precise automatic conveyance.
Coatings and screedings play an essential role in mitigating occasional corrosive exposure. They are also adequate for plant infrastructure dealing with mild corrosive gases in the plant atmosphere.
