AWWA C213 FBE Coated API 5L-B Pipe Fitting
Fusion-bonded epoxy coating, also known as fusion-bonded epoxy powder coating and commonly referred to as FBE coating, is an epoxy-based powder coating that is widely used to protect steel pipes used in pipeline construction from corrosion. It is also commonly used to protect rebar and on a variety of pipe joints, valves, etc.[2] FBE coatings are thermoset polymer coatings. They fall under the category of protective coatings in the nomenclature of paints and coatings. The name Fusion Bond Epoxy is due to the resigning cross-linking and the application method, which differs from a conventional paint.
FBE coating materials is a thermosetting material. it is consist of solid epoxy resin, a curing agent and various additives by mixing, grinding. when performing, the steel pipe was heated to 220-230℃, then by electrostatic adsorption method, FBE powder is sprayed on the surface of the pipe, heated and cooled melt adhesive curing, single-layer FBE coating thickness is about 300-500um, DPS(double layer FBE) thickness was controlled in 450-1000um.

FBE coating has the properties of excellent adhesion, high insulation resistance, oil stress, anti-aging, anti-cathode stripping, anti-high temperature, resistance to bacteria and low cathode protection current (only 1-5uA/m2, and etc.), but there are also poor performances against mechanical impact, high water absorption and other deficiencies.
