HIGH BUILD CHLORINATED RUBBER MARINE COATINGS. EFFECT OF FORMULATION AND SYSTEM VARIABLES ON PERFORMANCE

Studies of formulating systems, their application techniques and performances of protective coatings in various conditions. Two systems developed, anticorrosive and antifouling, were tested by means of salt spray, humidity, salt and fresh water soaking laboratory techniques, and by immersion in seawater carried out on two rafts. Effects of pigment addition is established as well as optimum application techniques are suggested. Chlorinated polyethylene is shown to give more stable cuprous oxide anti-fouling compositions than chlorinated rubber. Several compositions with good stability and encouraging antifouling properties are described.
