Fusion-bonded epoxy is a one-part, heat-curable, thermosetting epoxy resin powder.
The application of heat causes this material to melt and adhere to a metal substrate.
The resulting coating contains no trapped solvents, exhibits excellent adhesion qualities, and provides a tough, smooth finish that is resistant to abrasion and chemicals. FBEs have been in use since 1960 to protect pipelines from corrosion.
It is estimated that over 50,000 miles (80,000 kilometers) of FBE-coated pipelines are installed around the world.
FBE is the favored primary coating for three-layer polyolefin corrosion coatings.
In this technology, it has been in use since 1979.
FBE is currently specified in the oil, gas, and water pipeline industries. It has been used as an internal lining in desalination plants in Australia and the Middle East, and on gas transmission pipelines.5 It has been in use to protect downhole tubing for over 20 years.14 More recently, it has been used in sour crude pipelines.4 In the water industry, FBE provides a thinner coating compared to concrete, enabling smaller pipe sizes and reduced bulk and weight during handling and installation of pipe. The smooth, hard coating provides reduced friction compared to uncoated or concrete-lined pipe. This results in more efficient flow, reduced energy costs, and lower installed pump or compressor investment. It has been used on valves, pumps, and fittings in water districts for both water and sewer systems in California for nearly 30 years.
