Abstract
The results of a study of the resistance of protective coatings of three compositions to atmospheric corrosion in a humid tropical climate (SR Vietnam) are presented. The process of the biological fouling of coatings in the natural conditions of the South China Sea is studied. Coatings based on cycloaliphatic epoxy resin modified with epoxy rubber with fillers (mica-muscovite, TiO2) are chosen as the objects of research. To improve the anticorrosion and antifouling properties of the coatings, a triethanolamine complex with cobalt(II) cinnamate, which has a pronounced antimicrobial activity, is introduced into their composition.
