REINVENTING PRIMER TO PREVENT MARINE SHIPPING CORROSION

摘要

For the shipping industry, preventing corrosion is a critically important operational and safety issue for fleets, whether tanker, container, dry bulk, general cargo, passenger, or RO/RO vessel. The continual exposure to seawater and salty air is a corrosive combination that can shorten the service life of everything made of steel such as hulls, decks, cargo and ballast tanks. In addition, corrosive cargoes, as well as cargo and equipment damage can accelerate corrosion, while increasing maintenance cost and safety risk.
