ST. LOUIS — Carboline Co.’s new water-based epoxy insulative coating Carbotherm 551 is finding favor with the marine industry. This epoxy formulation is tough enough to handle foot traffic and the rigors of marine vessels during transport.
This product is ideal for reducing the heat buildup on barge covers and decks caused by solar radiation. When transporting low vapor pressure cargoes, owners can reduce fugitive emissions and minimize product losses. Carbotherm can also be used on marine vessels’ wheelhouse roofs, and it has helped reduce air conditioning demands. Similarly, it helps maintain heat during cold conditions.
