Code of practice for lining of vessels and equipment for chemical processes Part 6 Phenolic resin lining

This technical specification outlines the practical guidelines for lining chemical process vessels and equipment using phenolic resin materials. The document focuses specifically on the sixth segment of a broader series dedicated to lining practices. It establishes the necessary requirements and methods for applying this protective layer to ensure durability and corrosion resistance within industrial settings. The text details the preparation of surfaces, the mixing and application procedures for the resin, and the subsequent curing processes required to achieve a functional barrier. It addresses the handling of materials and the safety precautions to be observed during installation. The provisions cover various thicknesses and application techniques suitable for different operational environments where chemical exposure is a primary concern. This specification aims to provide a consistent framework for manufacturers and engineers involved in the construction and maintenance of such industrial equipment. By adhering to these guidelines, facilities can maintain structural integrity and prolong the service life of their processing units against aggressive chemical agents. The content serves as a reference for quality assurance in the lining industry without prescribing specific brand names or proprietary formulations.
