Hempel's Antifouling Globic 9000 78950 is a high-quality high-solids chemical-hydrolysis SPC (self-polishing) antifouling based on nano acrylate technology (NAT). With an efficient biocide package, the product offers low friction, self-smoothing and finely controlled polishing for ideal performance. The high polishing rate improves performance, with more biocide leaching to the surface while maintaining a very thin leach layer. The product uses microfibre technology to improve mechanical strength, prevent cracking and detachment, and reduce maintenance costs during repair.
Hempel's Antifouling Globic 9000 78950 can be used for newbuildings and for maintenance of the underwater hulls and boottop of deep-sea vessels. The product offers broad application flexibility. Dry-docking intervals of up to 90 months.
- This product contains no cybutryne or organotin compounds as biocides, and complies with the International Convention on the Control of Harmful Anti-fouling Systems on Ships adopted by the IMO in October 2001 (IMO document AFS/CONF/26 and subsequent amendments).
- Suitable for service at different speeds, with advantages over other SPC products, particularly in slow-speed vessels.

Depending on the end use and service area, the product may be specified at film thicknesses other than those indicated. This will alter the spreading rate, drying and curing times and recoat interval. To achieve optimum performance, avoid excessive film thickness. Excessive thickness must be strictly controlled; local thickness must never exceed 150 µm [6.0 mils] DFT. On irregular surfaces, take particular care to avoid over-application.
Previous coat: according to Hempel's specification. Recommended products: HEMPEL Epoxy Tie-Coat 45182, HEMPEL Epoxy 47182, HEMPEL Epoxy Tie-Coat 49183.
