How Does Basilicoat Work?

  • Barium sulfonate and mineral oil together with sodium silicate form a gel in seawater that adheres to hard surfaces.
  • The unique properties of the silica gel provide effective protection against the growth of marine organisms.
  • The product makes it difficult or impossible for barnacles, blue mussels and algae to attach to the treated surface so the animals give up their attempts and growth is prevented.

BaSiliCoat "Liquid Glass"

  • The product consists of a complex combination of, among other things, silicon and sulfonate, where the silicon gives the product its glass-like properties and the sulfonate an elastic and resistant surface.
  • The invention is based on the product's components crystallising into an elastic glass-like surface upon contact with seawater.
  • The genius of the product is its composition, which gives the surface the same pH value (acidity) as the seawater. This, combined with the surface's inhospitable structure, prevents marine organisms from thriving and attaching to the surface.
