During military ship and offshore platform construction weight, International Maritime Organization (IMO) approvals, and VOC content are a prime consideration. There is a need of commercial products that can fulfill International Maritime Organization (IMO)/Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) and Qualified Product List (QPL) approvals, are lightweight, and contain no VOC, are environmentally friendly, and can be used for different applications
Building materials are routinely tested for flammability. Paints are also evaluated for flammability but because of their typical low applied thickness, coatings contribute very little fuel to a fire and do not normally need to be fire tested. Coatings, unless they are specially formulated fire protective coatings, like intumescent coatings, do not significantly affect the flammability of the substrate to which they are applied. It is the substrate rather than the coating which dictates the flammability. Thick film coatings, however, can influence surface flammability.

Using a polyurea elastomer coating system, a Midwest water filtration plant extended the design life of its filters by correcting problems emanating from water leaking through an existing epoxy coating system and concrete substrate.
The installation of protective coating systems must be accomplished in a manner that will avoid adverse electrolytic coupling between dissimilar metals in water tanks, process equipment, and even some atmospheric applications where condensing humidity and rainwater provide the aqueous medium for electrolytes. This paper discusses several examples of premature coating and structural failures resulting from the mixing of dissimilar metal types in systems where the anode and cathode areas are not optimized by design or engineering controls.
