However, the formulation of both PPG Nexeon antifouling and PPG SIGMAGLIDE fouling release coatings allow them to be sprayed electrostatically. Electrically charged paint particles are precisely guided towards the grounded surface of the vessel, leading to an even distribution and the formation of a uniform and ultrasmooth, long-lasting film layer.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent project, <strong>EDR Antwerp shipyard confirmed a 40% reduction in overspray with the electrostatic application of PPG Sigmaglide<\/strong> coating on a RoRo passenger vessel from Stena Line.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Watch <strong>Marine Matters: The MarineLink Podcast\u00a0<\/strong>where <strong>EDR Antwerp Shipyard&#8217;s Philippe Trouillard<\/strong>, Commercial Manager, discusses, among other things, new electrostatically applied paint in the drydock which has shown the potential minimize overspray and save 40% in paint applied.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"fr-video fr-fvc fr-dvb fr-draggable\" contenteditable=\"false\" draggable=\"true\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ship Repair that is Transparent, On Time &amp; On Budget\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4RDimyJX7yU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>maritime professional<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; &#13; November 26, 2024&#13; &#13; &#13; Electrostatic application of PPG hull coatings.
