SeaLife Successful in Independent Study, Enviro-Safe Technology Behind High Performance Marine Coatings

CALIFORNIA, CULVER CITY, Feb. 4 -/E-Wire/Business Wire/-- SeaLife Corporation (OTCBB: SLIF), an environmental biotech company and the developer and manufacturer of SeaLife 1000 Anti-Foul Paints, announced the successful completion of a commissioned laboratory study of its scientifically advanced enviro-safe technology, the corner stone behind the company's uniquely formulated, environmentally safe, anti-foul, anti-corrosive coatings for the commercial maritime industry, the military, and the recreational boat owner.

T.R.Wilbury Laboratories, Inc., one of the most highly regarded independent laboratories in the United States, conducted the study with the objective to determine the release rate of copper from SeaLife 1000 antifouling paint in synthetic seawater. The data was intended for use with models that predict environmental concentration and assess environmental risk.

The test was modeled after ASTM D6442-99: Standard Test method for Copper release Rates of Antifouling Coatings System in Sea Water. In this test an antifouling coating system is applied to cylinders, which are then immersed in synthetic seawater under conditions that alternately mimic a ship riding at dock and moving approximately one knot in ocean water. The at-dock condition is simulated by immersing the painted cylinder in artificial seawater, in a static holding tank; the moving ship is simulated by rotating the test cylinders at 60 rpm in smaller dynamic measurement tanks, containing measuring tanks is analyzed for the active ingredients. The test cylinders are then returned to the static holding tank for a recovery period of one to seven days between the dynamic measurements. The cycle is repeated over a period of 45 days, until attainment of a pseudo steady-state leach rate.

Mr. Dan Kubik, V.P. of Sales stated, "We are extremely pleased with the results of the test conducted by T.R.Wilbury Laboratories, Inc. The test result solidifies SeaLife 1000's standing as the ultimate antifouling coating on the market today: high-performing, cost-effective -- and safe for the marine environment."

The company is looking to capture a substantial share of the highly regulated $8 billion dollar global anti-foul coating market with its proprietary technology, the result of 12 years of research conducted by prominent laboratories in the United States and Europe. This break-through technology has made it possible to effectively replace the commonly used anti-fouling agent Tributyl tin (TBT), a toxic compound banned globally as of January 1, 2003. SeaLife Corporation is able to provide its customers with 2003-compliant anti-foul coatings that meet the stringent requirements of The International Maritime Organization (IMO), The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and local EPA agencies, and will continue to introduce new quality products based on its innovative enviro-technology, offering simple, economic solutions to the complex problems of environmental pollution.
