The main functions of anticorrosion ship bottom paint and antifouling ship bottom paint are different. One focuses on preventing metal corrosion and the other focuses on preventing biological attachment. In order to achieve the coordinated use of the two, it is first necessary to ensure their compatibility in chemical composition.

Red antifouling paint is not only due to the color of copper oxide, but also because it has a visual warning effect. The bottom of a ship is difficult to see in the water, and red can be more conspicuous in shallow waters and dry docks, making it easier to inspect and maintain.

The importance of antifouling ship bottom paint: improve navigation efficiency (the presence of bottom attachments can cause the fuel efficiency of ships to drop by up to 30%), protect the hull structure, and reduce maintenance costs.
