Origins and Cures For Corrosion under Insulation
Chloride and galvanic and acidic or alkaline corrosion could create Corrosion in the Insulation (CUI). However, an understanding of the types of Corrosion and preventative measures can reduce the risk. Corrosion is a major cost to the global economy, costing approximately $2.2 trillion every year as per the World Corrosion Organization. From that figure, it's estimated that between 40 and 60 percent of maintenance costs result from Corrosion in the Insulation (CUI). Corrosion in Insulation is a mysterious phenomenon that is often not noticed. It is due to practical reasons. (For more information on inspection methods, refer to The 4 Most Effective Nondestructive Inspection Methods to Check Corrosion under the Insulation.) It isn't always possible to use the ideal insulation coating combination or apply the most efficient inspection methods. The intruding of water is the main cause of the development of CUI. Corrosion can attack or damage the jacketing and the insulation hardwar
