Non Skid Coating Formulation Utilizing a Design of Experiments (DOE)
Approach
TRFA Annual Meeting, Boston MA4 October 2004

Repair and Replacement
• Repair is time-, material-, and labor-intensive.
• Repair costs Range from $13- $25 /ft2
– CV 63 (November 2000)» 116,000 ft2
» Labor: $22.50 / ft2
» Material: $ 2.80 / ft2
– CVN 72 (April 2004)» 70,000 ft2
» Cost: $1.4 Million ($20 / ft2 )
Durability• Approximately 80% of CVN flight deck nonskid coatings
are replaced following each deployment. Extending the durability and functionality of nonskid coatings to last through 2 full deployments will save the Navy ~ $5M per year.
• Nonskid coatings in arrested landing areas are removed and replaced 2 or 3 times per deployment cycle.
• Flight deck coatings have degraded during deployment to an extent necessitating repair. Repairs at foreign ports are very expensive and result in temporary loss of platform availability.
Overview
• Arrested Landing Area– Eliminate erosion of non-skid coating due to
wire slap
– Protect arresting cable from abrasion damage
– Reduce or eliminate damage to nonskid coating from tail-hook impact
• Submarine Topside– Develop durable nonskid for continuous
seawater immersion
Future Research / Growth
Approach
Develop a high-performance organic nonskid system• Utilize multiple types of high-performance abrasives in conjunction with the development / refinement of
modern epoxy and epoxy/urethane blends to achieve maximum nonskid functionality, strength, durability, chemical resistance and corrosion protection.
• Advanced epoxy blends and rapid-cure polymer technology
• State-of-the-art ceramic technology (material, shape, chemistry)• A robust design of experiments approach will be used to identify the key parameters affecting all aspects of
nonskid coating performance, and enable optimization of the nonskid system.
• This approach offers the potential of achieving maximum performance from an organic-based nonskid coating. After qualification, such a system may be used as a drop-in replacement for current epoxy-based systems.

DOE Approach – What is it?Design of Experiments (DOE) is a scientific approach to experimentation. A
good DOE will yield the following benefits:
Aid in the selection and isolation of the important variables to be studied
Minimize the number of experiments that must be carried out to yield meaningful results
Maximize the amount of information that can be extracted from the experiments
Minimize the cost of product development and process control

Components (Levels)A. Polyamine Curing Agent #1 (Stoich)B. Polyamine Curing Agent #2 (Stoich)C. Modifier #1 (0% – 30% by weigh of Resin)D. Modifier #2 (0% – 30% by weight of Resin)E. Modifier #3 (0% – 30% by weight of Resin)F. Adhesion Promoter #1 (0% – 0.5% by weight of Resin)G. Adhesion Promoter #2 (0% – 0.5% by weight of Resin)H. Base Resin (100 grams)
Constraints: Total Modifier cannot exceed 30%0 ≤ C + D + E ≤ 30 grams
Design Strategy
Ideally, this design would have been performed utilizing a mixture design. However, this is exceptionally difficult to do using the commercial software available. In mixture design, the component ranges are defined according to weight contribution or volume contribution. In epoxy formulations, equivalent contributions can also be used. These contributions should be expressed as percentages of the total mixture.
In this study, the constraints are such that it was not possible to create a mixture design utilizing the available software. Consequently, we opted to perform this formulation study in the manner of a factorial experiment.
Design Strategy
In total, there are 8 potential components that may be used in the coating formulation. However, the amount of base resin used in each trial is held constant at 100 grams. Since the amount of resin does not vary, the base resin may be eliminated as a variable, reducing the number of variables to 7.
The actual levels of the polyamine curing agents are determined by stoichiometry. Because of stoichiometric constraints, the amount of one curing agent used will depend upon the amount of the other curing agent used. By defining the amount of one of the curing agents as a fraction of the total curing agent used, the other curing agent is eliminated as a variable. This reduces the total number of variables from 7 to 6.
Design Strategy
A quadratic D-Optimal design was chosen for this experiment. The D-Optimal design provides substantial information with a a minimum number of trials.

Expected Outcome
Within the design space defined by these components and by the levels of these components, we expect to identify formulations having the maximum possible performance for each of the performance criteria that we plan to measure. • Toughness / Impact resistance• Adhesion• Corrosion• Chemical Resistance
We expect to be able to model the effect on coating performance resulting from varying the concentration of these components.
We expect to utilize this model to identify a coating formulation capable of meeting the project goals.
