Corrosion Flashcards
(28 cards)
preflight assessment
to ensure that the airplane meets regulatory airworthiness standards and is in a safe mechanical condition prior to flight.
Typical visible warning signs include the following:
-Gray or white powder deposits on aluminum
-Rust-colored deposits and/or stains on steel
ROUTINE CORROSION INSPECTION
is perform at times when other maintenance activities made some part of the aircraft accessible which is usually inaccessible during daily or preflight inspection
SPECIAL CORROSION INSPECTION
is required in each overhauling and when required by airworthiness directives or manufacturer.
SERVICE DIFFICULTY REPORT
A report that must be submitted to the local
aviation authority for extensive damage due to
corrosion on the aircraft and aircraft
components.
Corrosion
weakens the structural integrity
of an aircraft and its parts and lead to
expensive repairs and significant safety
hazards
CORROSION CONTROL AND PREVENTION
This are the proactive actions and approach in
dealing corrosion in aircraft
CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL PROGRAM
a systematic approach to prevent and control corrosion in aircraft structures.
is issued as an Airworthiness Directives.
Corrosion Prevention and Control Program
10 KEY STEPS IN A GOOD CORROSION PREVENTION AND CONTROL PROGRAM
STEP ONE: WELL-TRAINED AIRCRAFT TECHNICIAN
STEP TWO: SCHEDULED INSPECTIONS
STEP THREE: AIRCRAFT CLEANING AND PRESERVATION
STEP 4: CORROSION TREATMENT
STEP FIVE: PROPER TOOLS, EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS
STEP SIX: MAINTENANCE OF BASIC FINISH
STEP 7: KEEP DRAIN HOLES OPEN
STEP EIGHT: GASKETS AND SEALANTS
STEP NINE: MINIMIZE EXPOSURE
STEP TEN: DOCUMENTATION
COATING
Help protect against corrosion by retarding oxidation and etching of the aluminum skin and fasteners
INHIBITIVE COATING
This coating where design to keep corrosion from ever starting by impeding chemical reactions
URETHANE PRIMERS
is formulated as a high performance corrosion inhibitor for all types of aircraft and has good undercoat adhesion.
URETHANE TOP COATING ADVANTAGES
- High durability
- Chemical resistance
- Abrasion resistance
- High gloss finish
POLYURETHANE PRIMER
chrome hazard-free formulation
POLYURETHANE PRIMER ADVANTAGES
- High chemical resistance
- Natural ultraviolet ray (sunlight) resistance
- High abrasion resistance
- High stain resistance
- Directness of image (DOI) with high gloss retention
CERAMIC COATING
This paint protection interlocks its
molecular structure with the surface
molecules of paint to literally become the
functional surface of your aircraft’s
paintwork.
