OVERVIEW
NOA - Nippon Paint Marine's unique, self-indicating technology
Ballast tanks are the skeleton of the ship. SI technology ensures thickness and protection. NOA60HS complies with IMO-PSPC.
NOA 60HS is the dedicated version of NOA designed especially for use in ballast tanks, cargo oil tanks and voids. For narrow and confined spaces, accurate application of correct thickness of coating is essential. With NOA. Seeing is believing.
Key Features
FEATURES
Self-Indicating Technology
- Self-Indicating Technology works during application. The sprayer can judge thickness by colour as they work.
- Paint application, even in the dark is more accurate with NOA
- On edges and corners ; low film thickness can be seen, enabling the yard and painter to correct and build up thickness.
- NOA is a film thickness controller.
Pinhole free formulation
NOA60HS has special pinhole free formulation. Nippon Paint Marine’s chemists achieved this by carefully balancing and adjusting the paint formulation
Delay of drying time
NOA’s drying time was optimised to balance the surface drying with the release of bubbles and solvent from within the coating.
| DFT 100µm | DFT 300µm | DFT 600µm | DFT 900µm | |
| NOA 60HS | 33min. | 73min. | 85min. | 92min. |
| Current epoxy paint for WBT | 16min. | 35min. | 40min. | 43min. |
Viscosity control
NOA60HS’s Viscosity control was optimised by Nippon Paint Marine’s chemists in order to achieve optimum results. NOA60HS has better holdup and self-levelling properties than other epoxy coatings for ballast tanks. NOA60HS has a very uniform and smooth final coating. Improving the viscosity of NOA60HS ensures excellent wettability. This ensures perfect coverage and adhesion.
