SeaQuantum Plus

Product description

SeaQuantum Plus is a high performance self-polishing and self-smoothening antifouling coating, based on a hydrolysing organosilyl polymer as binder. This binder dissolves in seawater at a rate permitting the continuous exposure of fresh antifouling.

IMO Anti-fouling System Convention compliant (AFS/CONF/26).

Recommended use

As an antifouling coating for newbuildings and major refurbishment, for boot top, side- and flatbottom areas on vessels operating at medium/high speed with drydocking intervals up to 60 months.

Surface preparation

Coated surfaces

To be applied on a clean, dry approved primer/undercoat or intact self-polishing antifouling in accordance with Jotun's requirements. Remove surface contamination by high pressure fresh water cleaning.

Other surfaces

The coating may be used on other substrates. Please contact your local Jotun office for more information.

Condition during application

The temperature of the substrate should be minimum 3ºC above the dew point of the air, temperature and relative humidity measured in the vicinity of the substrate. Good ventilation is usually required in confined areas to ensure correct drying.

Application methods

Spray Use airless spray

Brush May be used but care must be taken to achieve the specified dry film thickness.

Roller May be used. However when using roller application care must be taken to apply sufficient material in order to achieve the specified dry film thickness.

Application data

Mixing ratio (volume) Single pack.

Mixing Always to be mixed thoroughly with a power agitator before application

Thinner/Cleaner Jotun Thinner No. 7

Guiding data airless spray

Pressure at nozzle 15 MPa (150 kp/cm², 2100 psi.).

Nozzle tip 0.53 - 0.78 mm (0.021 - 0.031").

Filter Check to ensure that filters are clean.

Drying time

Drying times are generally related to air circulation, temperature, film thickness and number of coats, and will be affected correspondingly. The figures given in the table are typical with:

  • Good ventilation (Outdoor exposure or free circulation of air)

  • Typical film thickness

  • One coat on top of inert substrate

  1. Indicates the time which normally occurs in a drydocking situation where the drying time depends on the total film thickness of primer/antifouling applied. The drying time will increase with increasing film thickness. When three or more

    antifouling coats are applied in a rapid succession it is recommend to double the launch time. When applying at low temperatures (below 10°C), high humidity and low ventilation will increase the drying time. As antifoulings are physically drying paints, good ventilation is required especially on the flat bottom and in sea chests. If thinning is required at these lower temperatures, special attention should then be given to the application to reduce the risk of sagging.

     

  2. The surface should be dry and free from any contamination prior to application of the subsequent coat.

The given data must be considered as guidelines only. The actual drying time/times before recoating may be shorter or longer, depending on film thickness, ventilation, humidity, underlying paint system, requirement for early handling and mechanical strength etc. A complete system can be described on a system sheet, where all parameters and special conditions could be included.

Recommended type of primer:

Anticorrosive primer system suitable for purpose with

Safeguard Universal ES or Vinyguard Silvergrey 88 as sealer coat/tie-coat.

Other systems may be specified, depending on area of use

Storage

The product must be stored in accordance with national regulations. Storage conditions are to keep the containers in a dry, cool, well ventilated space and away from source of heat and ignition. Containers must be kept tightly closed.

Handling

Handle with care. Stir well before use.

Packing size

20 litre container.

Health and safety

Please observe the precautionary notices displayed on the container. Use under well ventilated conditions. Do not breathe or inhale mist. Avoid skin contact. Spillage on the skin should immediately be removed with suitable cleanser, soap and water. Eyes should be well flushed with water and medical attention sought immediately.
