Development of Abrasion-Resistant and Anti-Fouling Coatings for Ice-Class Vessels
Agreement Number:
1018787
Agreement Value:
$219,000.00
Agreement Date:
Apr 1, 2024 - May 30, 2025
Description:
Ice-class coatings are specialized protective coatings designed to withstand the harsh conditions encountered by ships operating in polar regions and ice-infested waters. These coatings must provide excellent resistance to both corrosion and ice-induced abrasion. Some key requirements for coatings considered as ice-class coatings are as following:
Ice Abrasion Resistance
Corrosion Protection
Low Friction
Impact resistance
Flexibility
UV resistance
High adhesion resistance
Low Environmental Impact
Easy Application and Maintenance
Compliance with Regulations
Hydrophobic Properties
Non-toxic
The purpose of this project is to develop a coating with high abrasion and biofouling resistance using eco-friendly components.
