Antifouling Compounds from Marine Invertebrates [PDF]
In this review, a comprehensive overview about the antifouling compounds from marine invertebrates is described. In total, more than 198 antifouling compounds have been obtained from marine invertebrates, specifically, sponges, gorgonian and soft corals.

Antifouling marine concrete [PDF]
A method was developed for incorporating mixtures of creosote and other toxic chemicals into concrete by first impregnating a porous expanded shale aggregate with the toxic mixture. The impregnated aggregate was then mixed with portland cement and water to produce an antifouling marine concrete.

Antifouling Technology Trends in Marine Environmental Protection [PDF]
AbstractMarine fouling is a worldwide problem, which is harmful to the global marine ecological environment and economic benefits. The traditional antifouling strategy usually uses toxic antifouling agents, which gradually exposes a serious environmental problem. Therefore, green, long-term, broad-spectrum and eco-friendly antifouling technologies have

Amphiphilic Alginates for Marine Antifouling Applications [PDF]
Amphiphilic polymers are promising candidates for novel fouling-release coatings for marine applications. We grafted amphiphilic alginates with fluorinated side chains to glass and silicon substrates and characterized the obtained films by contact angle goniometry, spectroscopic ellipsometry, XPS, and ATR-FTIR.

Ecofriendly Antifouling Marine Coatings
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.

Synthetic Analogue of Butenolide as an Antifouling Agent
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.

Green Synthesis of TiO2 Nanoparticles Using Natural Marine Extracts for Antifouling Activity
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were synthesized via a novel eco-friendly green chemistry approach using marine natural extracts of two red algae (Bostrychia tenella and Laurencia obtusa), a green alga (Halimeda tuna), and a brown alga (Sargassum ...
