A mathematical model for lifetime prediction of lacquer‐paint coatings in sea water

Abstract

Main features of the mechanism of lacquer-paint coatings destruction in sea water have been revealed. On this basis, a mathematical model has been developed and boundary value problems of mathematical physics have been formulated to calculate the determining processes on characteristic stages of coatings in sea water. The theoretical evaluation of coatings longevity depending on physical characteristics of the system has been made.
