Currently, Ships’ Force (SF) conduct maintenance and repair painting during pier-side periods as well as while ships are underway. SF commonly use epoxy primers, such as MIL-DTL-24441, Type IV, for maintenance painting and in some cases, chloride contamination and surface profile is not adequately controlled. The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) conducted a study to verify the efficacy of replacing the current epoxy primers commonly used by SF with more “user friendly” high-build, high-solid primers.

The bulk characteristics of Chemically Bonded Phosphate Ceramic (CBPC) coating was investigated for marine bridge application in alternate wet and dry exposure. Assessment of possible bulk coating degradation was made by physical testing, Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry (MIP) and electrochemical techniques. The bulk coating material was observed to become chalky and in some cases form cracks when exposed to alternate wet and dry conditions. Cohesive strength appeared to degrade.
This presentation will compare and contrast several anti-corrosive tidal zone coatings developed under a Navy SBIR program. Requirements for the coating included no VOC’s, surface tolerance to chlorides and water, fast cure to avoid washout by tides and waves, and thick build properties. Various trials of the material on dock sheet pilings and cooling tower fallout zones will be illustrated as well as accelerated lab test data.
Poor performance of materials…is why…more realistic application conditions are needed. An ultra-tolerant material, compatible with flash rust, humidity, poor profile and cold application conditions, potentially with Ultra High Pressure (UHP) water jetting, is presented in this paper.
