The primary application for coatings made with Fluoroethylene vinyl ether (FEVE) resins has been in architectural markets. This paper will discuss the chemistry and physical characteristics of FEVE resins, including data on weatherability. A brief review of FEVE resin product types will be given. Both laboratory and offshore corrosion test results will be addressed.
Fluoroethylene vinyl ether (FEVE) resins were developed in the early 1980’s. The primary application for coatings made with these resins has been in architectural markets, where the gloss and color retention offered by the resins are the main properties of interest. However, FEVE coatings also offer excellent corrosion resistance, especially in marine environments, which not only have high levels of UV radiation, but also high levels of corrosives. This paper will discuss the chemistry and physical characteristics of FEVE resins, including data on weatherability. A brief review of FEVE resin product types will be given. Both laboratory and offshore corrosion test results on fluorourethane coatings based on FEVE resins will be presented. Finally, a number of specific case studies and projects on offshore structures will be discussed.

In this paper the approach of an Oil Company is demonstrated from the initial choice between different primers: inorganic zinc and organic (epoxy) zinc., to all the preliminary pre-qualification tests, the subsequently field test performed, and the procedures adopted, costs included.

This paper will consider the performance and relevance to static situations of the key types of Cathodic dip painting (CDP) Antifoulings (Rosin Modified types), the current tin free polishing types (typically acrylates of various types), and low energy surface types. Both field experience and laboratory work will be considered.
The research described in this paper was carried out with the objective of establishing any correlation between coating performance and the results of cathodic disbondment testing. Experiments were carried out using 13 coatings. Nine samples of each coating were studied in a total of 117 experiments.
