Hempaguard X7 89900
Hempel Silicone Antifouling Hempaguard X7 89900 is a high-solids premium antifouling coating based on ActiGuard ® technology, utilizing an advanced hydrogel silicone resin and high-efficiency antifouling biocide to enhance performance. This reinforces the antifouling barrier and effectively extends the antifouling period.
Hempel Silicone Antifouling Hempaguard X7 89900 is suitable for all vessels with no restriction on service speed, including slow/ultra-slow steaming vessels and floating production storage and offloading units (FPSO). It is also recommended for propellers. It is suitable for vessels with maintenance intervals of up to 90 months and/or idle periods of up to 120 days. It is an ideal choice for superyachts, including yachts with long idle periods (up to 120 days), with drydocking intervals extendable up to 60 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).

Nozzle pressure: 15 MPa
Tip size: 0.48–0.53 mm. If brush or roller application is used, multiple coats are required to achieve the specified dry film thickness. Spray parameters are indicative and may be adjusted to site conditions. Pressure figures apply to material at 20 °C. (*For other application methods, consult the company representative.)

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. Achieving the specified minimum dry film thickness uniformly is critical. Checking paint consumption against area improves film thickness control.
