The applications of titanium nano materials in ship coatings

1.Hull paint and bottom antifouling paint

The agglomerate of nanometer silica is an amorphous white powder with a three-dimensional reticular surface. It has the characteristics of ultraviolet absorption and infrared reflection, which can improve the anti-aging property of coating. Nanometer titanium dioxide also has the effect of absorbing ultraviolet ray, which can improve the anti-aging property of coating. Both of them can be used as the main additives in the development of ultra - weatherproof hull paint.

Marine antifouling coatings have been ship coatings performance are the most special one of the most difficult material, research technology, because the world is becoming more and more attention to the requirement of environmental protection, in a total ban on the use of organic tin antifouling agent to determine the timing of the deadline, develop new effective antifouling agent has become a national Marine paint researchers focus on the goal. With nano scale antifouling agent, such as nano cuprous oxide, nano zinc oxide can be a effective way, or using microcapsule technology, use a kind of water soluble resin material to nano antifouling agent powder coated particles formation, then preparation in coatings, in practice, due to the effect of the water to dissolve microcapsule gradually, slowly and effectively release the antifouling agent in order to achieve stable long-term antifouling function.

2.Antibacterial paint

Nano materials such as nanometer titanium dioxide and nanometer zinc oxide can be used as antibacterial agents that are non-toxic, with wide antibacterial range and good thermal stability. Ship booth in non-metallic materials and coatings because of frequent in damp and small space easy to pollution of the environment, especially in subtropical and tropical Marine environment, very easy to mold and contamination.A new type of high efficiency antibacterial and antifungal materials and coatings in the cabin can be prepared by using the antibacterial action of nano materials.

3. Fire retardant paint for ships

The fireproofing capability of ships is the key factor that affects the safety of ships, especially the combat and survivability of ships. Some nano particles have flame retardant function, such as nano zinc oxide can be used as a flame retardant added to the ship's booth decoration materials or made into fire retardant coating, increase the ship nonmetallic decorative materials and fire retardancy of fire retardant coating.
