Transitioning towards environmentally benign marine antifouling coatings
Marine biofouling has been an issue since antiquity whose solutions have a history of negative environmental impact. The development of environmentally sustainable solutions is paramount as society is becoming more conscious of anthropogenic impacts on ...

Slippery Alkoxysilane Coatings for Antifouling Applications
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]
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

Bacterial Antifouling Characteristics of Helicene—Graphene Films
Herein, we describe interfacially-assembled [7]helicene films that were deposited on graphene monolayer using the Langmuir-Schaefer deposition by utilizing the interactions of nonplanar (helicene) and planar (graphene) π–π interactions as functional ...

Quaternary Ammonium “Tannate” for Antifouling Coatings [PDF]
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.
