In its recent statement, the company explains why the newly available X21 Foul Release Bottom Paint for maritime vessel owners and operators sets the stage for expansion into other industries. CRX Coatings’ graphene-based formulas are proving equal to the challenges of inconsistent dispersal, mass production, and metal substrate adhesion experienced by other manufacturers.

CRX Coatings is actively developing new graphene-based technologies for application in a diverse range of industries including nuclear, concrete, oil, gas, metal, and polymer production. The company’s flagship X21 anti-fouling paint showcases its success in creating products with enhanced durability, improved hydrodynamic performance, and environmentally friendly performance.

A spokesperson says, “Our team of dedicated researchers and engineers is continually exploring new frontiers in coating technology. We are actively developing innovative solutions for thermal mitigation, abrasion and corrosion resistance, and antifungal/microbial properties among others.”

Graphene – which is extracted from graphite – is a nanomaterial, consisting of very thin two-dimensional sheets of carbon atoms. Scientists at the University of Manchester were the first to isolate the compound in 2003. Graphene has since been recognized as one of the strongest and most versatile substances known to man. According to the Science and Industry Museum, it is 200 times stronger than steel despite being incredibly thin (just one atom thick). The material is also renowned for its conductivity, elasticity, and light absorption qualities.

CRX Coatings’ flagship X21 marine bottom paint harnesses graphene’s corrosion-resistant qualities to produce a paint that is more durable than biocide-based alternatives. The coating provides a smooth surface which makes it difficult for organisms to attach themselves to the hull, reducing the need for scraping and scrubbing.

The product’s anti-friction surface also improves the speed and performance of vessels by reducing drag. The coating allows boats to self-clean, harnessing a vessel’s motion to remove fouling as it moves through the water. X21 is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater vessels and can be successfully applied to steel, fiberglass, and aluminum hulls.

A spokesperson says, “All these benefits exist without the need of a sloughing mechanism (i.e copper) which results in less damage to ocean life and coral reefs.”
