Greetings,
Currently I am interested in producing a coating which is able to cure efficiently underwater. If any researchers have interesting opinion on how I can achieve this target.. Please share it with me. Thank you very much !!
Dear Dr. Wan Mohamad Ikhmal,
I suggest you the following papers/notes which are not the resolution of the problem that you ask but I believe can be used as a suitable premise to find a product that best meets the needs of users in compliance with environmental regulations so that it is also commercially usable and compatible.

Dear all, at first look I suggest cyanoacrylate polymers and any water-sensitive monomers and polymers such isocyanates based ones. My Regards
Dear Wan,
For decades, many industries have been looking for a cost-effective and practical solution for long-term corrosion protection underwater. Ultra High Build Epoxy Coating (733) may cure underwater and stand early immersion making, it is an ideal maintenance coating for splash zone piling. It can be applied at low tide and will continue to cure under immersed conditions ensuring continual protection of wharf piling, old or new. It is applied by heavy-duty spray equipment in one application to at least 3mm DFT. Good thing is there to use single applications of this thickness or more minimise application costs and times. Limitations are off course there, Ultra High Build Epoxy Coating (733) should not be applied at temperatures below 5 degree centigrade.
Another coatings cyanoacrylate adhesive, which has the ability to cure at low temperatures and without the need for any hardener, which can attributed to the high-strength bonding interaction between two non-amalgamating substrates, with their ease of dispersion and self-curing activities.
