The Effect of Grooming on Five Commercial Antifouling Coatings
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 The majority of ships are coated with antifouling paint. These coatings can fail to completely protect from fouling due to mismatches between paint type and duty cycle, the presence of biocide tolerant fouling organisms, improperly applied, old or ...

Ecofriendly Antifouling Marine Coatings
ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering, 2015 Foul release coatings were first used on vessels in the early 1990s, but despite early excitement about the technology, they have had a prolonged modest market share due to high cost and poorer performance when compared to biocidal marine coatings. Recently, these coatings are experiencing a renaissance.

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 ...

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
