APS Offers Three New

Marine Coatings

Advanced Polymer Sciences (APS) has developed three differ- ent lines of marine coatings for specific applications.

The Marineline coating was engi- neered for cargo tanks of chemical and products tankers, and is based on the Siloxirane polymer anti-cor- rosion system.

The Steamline coating has been specifically developed to overcome pipe coating damage and problems caused by high thermal shock in extreme maritime conditions. It is a low temperature cure, multi- functional, crosslinked

Systems Specialists organic/inorganic thermoset poly- mer coating that is adhered in two linings.

Ballastline is a premium grade coating for application to ballast tanks and void spaces. It can be brushed, rollered or sprayed on to the ballast in temperatures above 40 degrees F with a surface tem- perature to be below 178 degrees F.

This product reportedly prevents further rusting of oxidized surfaces and also resists the development of corrosion.
