Abstract
A latex-based surface coating that can be applied to the surface of equipment to detect any leaks of acid or base onto the equipment. The latex-based surface coating changes color when a strong acid and/or a strong base makes contact with the surface coating, thereby providing a visual indication that a leak of a strong acid and/or a strong base has occurred. The surface coating is able to provide visual indications for acids with a pH between 0 and 3 in the liquid or gas phase. The surface coating is also able to provide visual indications for bases with a pH between 9 and 14 in the liquid or gas phase.
