Transport and antifouling properties of papain-based antifouling coatings [PDF]
Applied Surface Science, 2015 Abstract The aim of this work is to study the antifouling performance and water uptake behaviour of coatings formulated with papain (an environmentally friendly pigment). Antifouling coatings have been formulated using rosin (natural resin) as matrix and papain adsorbed in activated carbon as pigment.

Superhydrophobic Coating for Antifouling of Chinese Paintings
Langmuir, 2018In the past 10 years, many studies on superhydrophobic (SH) papers have been reported. However, these works are rarely carried out on Chinese paintings. Compared with pure paper, the complexity of Chinese black ink and pigment, caused by including animal glue and fixatives allowing the nanoparticles to disperse in water, negatively affects the ...

Biodegradable Antifouling Coating
MPWT 2019, 2019Abstract Due to the regulations of toxic biocidal products in marine environments, the development of nontoxic antifouling (AF) coatings has become required. The development of nontoxic antifouling formulations implies the use of ingredients (such as: polymers, additives and pigments) that are devoid of toxicity towards marine ...
