Title: US Navy environmental compliance and engineering for reduced maintenance

Conference ·

;  [1]
  1. Naval Sea Systems Command, Arlington, VA (United States)

Improving corrosion protection for typically high maintenance areas aboard marine vessels (i.e. seawater ballast tanks) continues to be a top priority for the US Navy. Extending the service-life performance of shipboard applied paints reduces overall maintenance costs and minimizes impacts on the environment. This may be achieved through the implementation of QA-enhanced maintenance procedures which include: controlling environmental conditions of the work space, minimizing substrate surface contamination, minimizing edge corrosion, and application of environmentally compliant, high solid content paints and coatings.
