Anti-Fouling Graphene Bottom Paint For Commercial Cargo Vessels Announced

CRX Coatings has updated its product line with the new X21 Foul Release Coating with graphene for commercial maritime vessels.

-- The new graphene bottom paint from CRX Coatings is designed to improve the performance of commercial maritime vessels by preventing biological growth on the hulls of ships. As such, companies can expedite their delivery times, reduce maintenance costs, and save on fuel.

According to a recent report from the American Coatings Association (ACA), the use of copper anti-fouling paints is becoming increasingly regulated in the United States, with the EPA proposing sweeping restrictions. These legislative changes pose serious economic challenges for commercial shipping companies, ports, and marinas that use copper paints for their foul removal needs.

As a biocide-free alternative, graphene not only meets stringent environmental regulations but also improves vessel performance by removing algae, mussels and barnacles from the hulls of ships. The X21 Foul Release Coating reduces friction and drag while improving fuel consumption—the single biggest expense for the maritime shipping industry.

A spokesperson for the company informs: "Our X21 Foul Release Coating offers unparalleled benefits in ultraviolet-resistant, anti-microbial, and friction-reducing applications. We have tested our product in the harshest marine conditions, ensuring superior quality."

The X21's self-cleaning properties, activated by the natural movement of the vessel through water, also reduce time spent in drydock maintenance. Designed to last up to three years, the graphene-based paint provides excellent corrosion resistance and weatherability, making it a reliable and cost-effective choice for commercial maritime businesses.

The X21 Foul Release Coating is available in quart, gallon, and five-gallon sizes and can be applied to aluminum, steel, and fiberglass hulls.
