Research and Ships' Antifouling Paints

Abstract

A SUB-COMMITTEE of the Iron and Steel Institute recently produced the first report of the Marine Corrosion Sub-Committee. This was anticipated by the presentation of two papers dealing with the same subject. One was by Dr. G. D. Bengough and Mr. V. G. Shepheard in London, at the Institute of Naval Architects, on April 15, 1943, and the following day a very similar paper by Dr. Bengough in Newcastleupon-Tyne at the North East Coast Institution of Engineers and Shipbuilders. These papers dealt with the work of the sub-committee carried out by the official investigator, Dr. J. C. Hudson, under the chairmanship of Dr. Bengough.
