XGIT-PROP is a highly durable graphene-based hard foul release propeller coating that helps to improve vessel performance by keeping the propeller smooth over time. It is the most efficient and simplest way to improve and maintain CII rating.
XGIT-PROP’s efficiency gains have been independently validated by Stolt Tankers. The performance analysis proved that XGIT-PROP provided 3-4% fuel savings over a period of six months without decrease in efficiency and damage to the coating.
fuel savings
Compared with vessels without propeller coating.
XGIT-PROP combines a specialized primer, which is designed to increase the adhesion with the propeller substrate, and a highly durable foul release top coat, which together ensure a long-lasting performance and maintain coating integrity throughout the docking cycle.
XGIT-PROP is a hard coating that is more resistant to mechanical damage compared to traditional SPC and foul release coatings. Combining the hardness with its foul release properties, makes it a good solution for grooming and cleaning activities without coating damage.
In addition to reducing emissions, XGIT-PROP avoids the leaching of harmful biocides, coppers, and silicone oils, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint. It is engineered with a low VOC content, which not only protects marine ecosystems but also ensures a safer application process, both for the applicator and the atmosphere.
XGIT-PROP is performing as advertised, and even hundred times better.
