Using Conducting Polymers as Active Agents for Marine Antifouling Paints [PDF]
Materials Research, 2015 Antifouling coatings were prepared with paints containing polyaniline (PAni) and derivatives as active pigment, and evaluated by antifouling performance on metallic or polyvinyl chloride substrates. The paints, PAni and its derivatives were characterized

Synthetic Analogue of Butenolide as an Antifouling Agent
Marine Drugs, 2021 Butenolide derivatives have the potential to be effective and environmentally friendly antifouling agents. In the present study, a butenolide derivative was structurally modified into Boc-butenolide to increase its melting point and remove its foul smell.

Quantifying the ‘implementation gap’ for antifouling coatings [PDF]
Applied Thermal Engineering, 2016 Abstract Fouling is a chronic problem in many heat transfer systems and leads to regular cleaning of heat exchangers. Antifouling coatings are one mitigation option: the financial attractiveness of installing a coated exchanger depends on trade-offs between capital and operating costs over the lifetime of the unit. Such considerations effectively set

Quaternary Ammonium “Tannate” for Antifouling Coatings [PDF]
Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Research, 2012 L'accumulation indésirable d'une grande variété d'organismes marins (salissures biologiques) sur les coques de navires peut entraîner une augmentation significative des coûts, principalement par une consommation accrue de carburant pour maintenir la vitesse de croisière. Généralement, ces revêtements ont des composés bioactifs, appelés biocides.

Slippery Alkoxysilane Coatings for Antifouling Applications
ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, 2023 Herein, we report the wettability and antifouling behavior of a range of different siloxane coatings on plastic and glass substrates. The films investigated are prepared using trimethoxysilane precursors with different alkyl chain lengths (1-18 C atoms) in order to study how the nature of the hydrophobic group affects the different parameters used to ...
