DEVELOPMENT AND ACTUAL TESTING RESULTS OF PAINT FOR ARCTIC WATERS
A study was carried out by Ishikawajima-Harima Heavy Industries (IHI), Japan to develop a better understanding of the functions of paint films in arctic waters. While the study aimed to establish a unique method for IHI to use in evaluating paints for such applications, it came to offer prospects of improving paint film performance. As a result, the development of a new polyurethane resin-type paint was undertaken jointly by IHI, a resin maker and a paint maker. This article reports on the establishment of an evaluation standard; the characteristics of the newly-developed paint; the results of exposure testing using actual ships and structures; and the study of specific spray machines.
