Using coatings and composites can revolutionize the maritime industry by simultaneously reducing capital expenditure and greenhouse gas emissions. In a case study to reduce propellor cavitation, a super metal coating was used to build up the worst affected areas, and then a super metal glide coating was brush applied to provide overall protection.
This case study shows how one company offered thermal insulation as a solution to lower the surface temperature, prevent burns, and halt further corrosion of a tank at a lubricant plant.
