Anti-welding slag/anti-spatter in the shipbuilding and repair industry: Bio-Circle E-Weld environmentally friendly anti-welding slag agent series imported from Germany (Anti-welding slag Part 1)

Bio-Circle E-Weld Series in Shipbuilding and Repairing Industry

Taiwan has always been a maritime nation, surrounded by the ocean. Ships have become crucial means of external communication. In industries such as shipbuilding and repair, welding processes are indispensable. Balancing marine environmental protection with work efficiency and labor safety has always been our pursuit.

Kelly has introduced the environmentally friendly anti-slag agent E-Weld series from Germany. The anti-slag component comes from natural vegetable oil, which is environmentally friendly and does not cause marine pollution. Moreover, it does not generate wastewater from secondary cleaning, reduces slag adhesion, and saves time on grinding, thus improving work efficiency and quality.During the ship repair process, if the slag (bead) is not cleaned properly, it can lead to corrosion of the base material in harsh marine environments, despite having a rust-proof coating on the surface. The salt content and high temperature of seawater can easily corrode the base material through the slag (bead), causing the entire hull to deteriorate, thereby affecting the vessel itself. This cannot be ignored. In the case study, after using the German anti-slag agent, slag removal became easier and did not affect subsequent painting operations, which was truly a boon for shipbuilders and repairers. Below are the tested workpieces and their effects:

Advantages of German Anti-Slag Agents:

When working on ship hulls at the dock, the priority is the safety of workers and the ecological safety of the ocean. The Bio-Circle E-Weld series of anti-slag agents bear the RoHS/REACH mark and are environmentally friendly and natural in composition. When used normally, they have no impact on humans or the environment. Moreover, the products are easy to store, non-flammable, and suitable for offshore operations.

The Bio-Circle E-Weld series of anti-slag agents E-Weld 3 is suitable for use on stainless steel pipelines on the ship's hull;

The Bio-Circle E-Weld series of anti-slag agents E-Weld 2 is suitable for use on iron component pipelines;

Additionally, it is suitable for deck repair operations.
