For the environmental tests, different exposure times were selected for each coupon:

1.UPS composite coupons: 8,5 months → atmospheric, splash, tidal and submerged. 2.Pre-preg epoxy composite coupons: 12 months (still ongoing) → atmospheric, splash and tidal. 3.Bare steel: 15 months (still ongoing). → splash, tidal and submerged. 4.Mooring chain slide coupons: 6, 12, 18 and 24 months (still ongoing). → splash, tidal and submerged. 5.Fibre rope coupons: 12 and 24 months. (still ongoing) → splash and tidal. 6.Wire-on-bolt specimens: ASTM G116 standardized, 3 months. Type Coating Environment Splash Tidal Submerged Atmosph. Lab GFR UPS

  • 4. Conclusions

12

  • 1. Composite GFR unsaturated polyester showed ↓ reduction in the maximum tensile

stress with MWCNT in each sample. ↑ losses of strength were observed in submerged environment.

  • 2. Corrosivity Indexes (MCI and ACI) have been assessed with wire-on-bolt specimens

and good agreement with theoretical values of each location.

  • 3. Composite coupons in tidal and submerged conditions were colonized by marine
  • biofouling. ↓ biofouling has grown over metallic coupons, probably due to the

detachment of rust outer layers, which ↓ steel thickness. Galvanized steel wire core

  • f fibre ropes was corroded, and these coupons showed biofouling (incl. green algae,

barnacles…) in tidal zone.

  • 4. TSA coating provided an effective corrosion protection to the mooring slide chain

samples, but in tidal and submerged zones was clearly damaged (especially the topcoat) by foulants, generating a rough surface finish.

Coming up in CoMaRE project during phases 3 and 4:

  • Novel AF Coating systems additivated with nanofillers. Results

compared with AF Coatings without nanofillers. Surface effects.

  • New Corrosion Test Site “ El Bocal ” in the Northern coast of Spain.
  • Laboratory accelerated tests for comparison with field results.
  • Further results from exposed coupons

The project CoMaRE, incl. the offshore tests at IWES Fraunhofer facility leading to these results, has received support from MARINET, a European Community - Research Infrastructure Action under the FP7 “Capacities” Specific Programme. The authors would like to acknowledge H. Schnars and M. Hörnig (IWES Fraunhofer) for their help and support in the marine exposure and are also grateful to Laura Soriano for her work and support in CTC’s laboratory and exposure tests.
