Minimising CUI risks using non-water absorbent insulation in conjunction with drain holes

Website Admin Wednesday, November 18, 2020

Thunyaluk Pojtanabuntoeng, Curtin Corrosion Centre Introduction Thermal insulations used for energy conservation and personnel protection can create an environment perfect for corrosion by forming a narrow annular space that can trap water between the metal surface and an insulation material or by…

RT Radiography for Detection of CUI

Test Registration Wednesday, August 26, 2020

CUI can be extremely difficult to detect, with insulation and cladding often masking corrosion and traditional methods, such as visual inspection through the removal of cladding and insulation can be time-consuming. Often the true extent of corrosion is not realised until too…
