What is Hold Block and why hold block application is better than LIME WASH?
When aggressive or corrosive dry bulk cargoes—such as fertilizers, salt, coal, or sulphur—come into direct contact with the metal surfaces of ship holds, they can cause rapid corrosion and surface degradation due to chemical reactions. This not only weakens the structural integrity of the vessel but also leads to costly repairs and safety risks.
To prevent such reactions and ensure long-lasting surface protection, a polymer-based protective coating is the ideal solution.
Why Use Polymer based HOLD BLOCK Coating in Cargo Holds?
-
Chemical Resistance
Acts as a barrier against corrosive cargoes, preventing direct metal contact and chemical reaction.
-
Easy Application
Applied by brush, roller, or spray before cargo loading. Forms a durable, even protective film.
-
Temporary or Voyage-Specific Use
Perfect for short-term voyages carrying highly reactive cargoes, allowing for easy cleaning and reapplication after discharge.
-
Prevents Pitting & Rust Formation
Shields steel from moisture, acidic residues, and abrasion, reducing long-term maintenance costs.
