À propos de cet audio
Welcome back to the Adhesion Matters podcast. How do adhesives survive salt spray, constant shock, and the world’s toughest fire standards?
In this episode, we dive into the unique challenges of marine and shipbuilding applications. From composite superstructures and deck bonding to corrosion-resistant sealing, adhesives are now replacing welds and rivets in some of the harshest environments on earth.
We highlight some epoxy adhesies for structural bonding, along with silicone sealants that deliver fire resistance and weather durability in line with IMO safety codes. Finally, we look ahead at the role adhesives will play in greener shipping—hydrogen ferries, lightweight composites, and wind-assisted propulsion.
Whether you’re a naval architect, shipyard engineer, or materials specialist, this episode shows how modern adhesives keep the world’s fleets lighter, safer, and ready for the future.
