Proper Storage:
1. UV Protection: When using UV or
" photoinitiated " resins, it is important to never
expose them to sunlight. Store these lining
materials in a cool, dry, and dark environment to
prevent exposure to UV radiation, which can
degrade materials over time, or cause them to
cure prematurely. UV-resistant covers can provide
additional protection. UV resin can also lose its
reactivity through thermal cycling (changes in
storage of material; hot truck or warehouse,
cooling off, and re-heating, etc.).
2. Liner Roll Storage: Keep liner rolls off the
ground to prevent contamination, exposure to dirt
or moisture, and damage. Use elevated racks or
protected pallets to maintain the shape and
integrity of the liner. Be careful not to damage the
coating of the liner when unrolling the material
under weight. Damage to the coating can cause
resin leakage and the inability to hold air pressure.
3. Resin Containers: Seal resin containers tightly
to prevent moisture absorption and ensure
consistent viscosity. Make sure batch number and
date of manufacture are documented and
protected on pails, drums, or totes.
Store containers to manufacturer's guidelines away
from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Do
not use resin that appears to have separated or
shows signs of external moisture, as this can
adversely affect the pot life and curing capabilities.
4. Calibration Tube Storage: Store calibration
tubes horizontally to prevent warping or distortion.
Use protective caps to shield tube ends from debris
and moisture. Be careful not to damage calibration
tube when handling.
5. Inventory Management: Implement a clear
inventory system to track the usage, batch
numbers, and expiration dates of CIPP materials.
Use a " first in, first out " approach to prevent the
use of expired materials.
By following these guidelines, the NASSCO
Lateral and Building Pipe Committee aims to
empower professionals in the CIPP industry to
uphold the highest standards of quality control
and storage. While this is only one piece of the
puzzle that will lead to industry-wide standards
and growth, it is amongst the most important. It is
also one that is relatively easy to adhere to, with
the proper effort. Adhering to these best practices
ensures that CIPP lining materials retain their
structural integrity and performance, contributing
to the long-term success of pipeline rehabilitation
projects.
