4 1 INTRODUCTION The coating system, Jotacote Universal N10 applied on a Galvany IZ 182 (J) zinc shop primed steel panel, has been tested in accordance with the IMO Performance Standard for Protective Coatings /1/, section 1.7 of appendix 1 to annex 1, without wave movement (cross over test). 2 SCOPE OF WORK The following work and tests have been performed by Jotun AS at Jotun AS test laboratory in Sandefjord, Norway, partly under the supervision of a representative from DNV: Application processes as documented in Table 3 Two months outdoor weathering of the shop primed test panel. The following work and tests have been performed by DNV at the DNV laboratory in Bergen, Norway: Identification of the coating system by means of determination of density and infrared (IR) spectra Total dry film thickness measurements and pinhole detection on the test panel before testing 180 days exposure in an exposure tank without wave movement Evaluation of testing performed after exposure, including visual check for rust and blisters, cathodic protection and adhesion measurements. 3 WORK CARRIED OUT PRIOR TO EXPOSURE 3.1 Identification The coating system was identified by infrared scanning (by means of a Nicole Protégé 460 FTIR Spectrometer) and by determination of density (according to ISO /2/ by means of an Erichsen Mod. 290/1 Pycnometer). The results from the identification are given in Table 5 and Appendix C. Date : Page 1 of 8

EP JCO44 Anode Holiday Figure 1 Test panel 3.4 Dry film thickness The dry film thickness (DFT) measurements were carried out by using a calibrated PosiTector A template, as shown in Figure 2, was used for the measurements. The results from the measurements are given in Table Figure 2 DFT measurement locations Date : Page 4 of 8

The detection was carried out by means of an Elcometer 269 Pinhole detector at 90 volts. The result from the pinhole detection is shown in Table 8. 4 EXPOSURE The exposure was carried out according to the IMO Performance Standard for Protective Coatings /1/. The exposure was started and terminated TESTS CARRIED OUT AFTER EXPOSURE Visual inspection for rust and blisters, adhesion measurements and evaluation of cathodic disbondment were carried out according to specifications and standards referred to in the IMO Performance Standard for Protective Coatings /1/. The results are shown in Table 6 and 7. Date : Page 5 of 8

10 Table 6 Results of testing Cathodic disbondment Blisters / rust Zinc anode [mm] 1) weight loss [g] Current demand [ma/m 2 ] 2) ) Assess loss of adhesion at the artificial holiday by using a sharp knife to make two cuts through the coating to the substrates, intersection at the holiday. With the point of the knife, attempt to lift and peel back the coating from around the holiday. Record whether the adhesion of the coating to the substrate has been reduced and the approximate distance, in millimetres, that the coating can be peeled. (From ISO 15711:2003 /3/) Additionally IACS interpretation of IMO PSPC: Repeat the cutting and lifting all around the artificial holiday to find the maximum loss of adhesion. Disbonding from artificial holiday can be either loss of adhesion to the steel substrate or between the shop primer and the epoxy coating and shall be less than 8 mm for epoxy based systems to be acceptable (compatibility test). Cohesive adhesion failure in the shop primer is not to be included as part of the loss of adhesion. (From IACS Model Report for IMO Resolution MSC.215(82) Annex 1 Test Procedures for Coating Qualification, Section Crossover Test, No102 (June 2008) /4/) 2) Exposure time: 120 days (Total time 180 days. Each cycle consists of 2 weeks seawater immersion and 1 week exposure in relative high humidity air) Utilisation factor: 0.8 Consumption rate for Zn-anodes: 11.3 kg/a year Adhesion tests Adhesion tests were carried out on the test panel by using a DeFelsko PosiTest AT adhesion tester. Dollies with 20 mm diameter were used. The coating surface and dollies were grinded carefully with FEPA P#320 SiC paper and rinsed with technical alcohol. The dollies were attached to the coating using 3M DP410 epoxy based glue. The curing of the glue was carried out according to manufacturer s recommendations. A hole saw was used to cut carefully through the coating down to bare steel before pulling of the dollies. Values from the test are presented in Table 7.
