Libang Shipping Company Launches Cold Coatings Technology

Libang Marine Coatings Company recently launched a specially designed cold coating technology designed for ships to protect against solar radiationWhen the coating technology is used on the deck, it can reflect nearly 80% of the solar radiation heat, compared to the conventional coating coated deck, the temperature difference can reach 28 degrees Cthis technology does not require special construction equipment or process, but its coating contains advanced formula design reflective pigments, can effectively inhibit the temperature of the coating surface rise, reduce heat from the coating surface to the steel structure substratefor example, the coating was tested on the luojing deck of a bulk carrier, and the results showed that the surface temperature was 42 degrees C, while the surface temperature applied to conventional coatings reached 70 degrees Cconducted similar tests in the cockpit of a ship, which did not show a noticeable reflection of sunlight during the cold season in January and February, and the coating's reflective properties began in March as temperatures rose"By reducing the surface temperature of the open deck, shipyards can reduce the application of insulation materials, and shipowners can reduce the energy consumption of air conditioners, save fuel, and improve the conditions for passengers to travel by boat, especially in tropical climates," said the head ofLibang Ship Coatings (Europe)"
, the coating can also be applied to the deck of ballast water and cargo compartments to ensure that the goods are in a safe and stable temperature rangeIt is also suitable for thermal insulation of liquefied natural gas (LNG) tanksLibang Coatings Company has been developing cold coating technology for many yearsThe technology was used in the construction industry and the Japanese automotive industry to reduce the temperature in indoor or open-air parking lots, and tests showed that the cold coating technology could reduce the temperature in the vehicle by 11% compared to conventional coatings
