Research progress of environmentally friendly degradable marine antifouling coatings

Journal of Ocean Engineering and Science
Marine biofouling, i.e., the attachment of biomaterial on the surfaces of submerged objects, has long been a serious hazard to marine economies and ecosystems.

Supramolecular Coordination Platforms for Smart Theranostics: Leveraging the Dynamic Molecular Networks of Metal–Polyphenol Assemblies

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
In this review, we summarize the recent developments of metal–polyphenol networks (MPNs) as a highly versatile and functionally integrated supramolecular assembly platform. We also discuss their pivotal role in steering biomedical materials away from conventional single‐function designs and toward intelligent, unified diagnostic and therapeutic ...

Corrosion and Degradation of Materials in Marine Environments: Implications for Coastal and Offshore Infrastructure

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
This study presents a failure‐oriented analysis of corrosion in marine infrastructure, linking degradation mechanisms to crack initiation, fatigue propagation, and structural failure. A unified framework is proposed to connect environmental exposure, material degradation, and reliability, supporting failure prediction, inspection planning, and life ...

Antifouling properties of hydrogels

Science and Technology of Advanced Materials, 2011
Marine sessile organisms easily adhere to submerged solids such as rocks, metals and plastics, but not to seaweeds and fishes, which are covered with soft and wet 'hydrogel'.

Polydopamine‐Mediated, Amphiphilic Poly(Carboxybetaine Methacrylamide‐r‐Trifluoroethyl Methacrylate) Coating with Resistance to Marine Diatom Adhesion and Silt Adsorption

Advanced Materials Interfaces
Marine biofouling–the adhesion of marine organisms onto a ship hull–causes increased fuel consumption, leading to massive carbon dioxide emissions.

Marine Applications of Metal‐Modified FEVE Coatings on 6061 Aluminum Alloy for Enhanced Anti‐Corrosion and Anti‐Biofouling

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This study developed a metal–modified fluoroethylene vinyl ether (FEVE) organic coating on 6061 aluminum alloy, supported by a micro‐arc oxidation (MAO) pretreatment layer, to enhance corrosion resistance and antifouling performance in marine environments.

Image Cytometric Analysis of Algal Spores for Evaluation of Antifouling Activities of Biocidal Agents

Scientific Reports, 2017
Chemical biocides have been widely used as marine antifouling agents, but their environmental toxicity impose regulatory restriction on their use. Although various surrogate antifouling biocides have been introduced, their comparative effectiveness has ...

Leveraging the Highly Data‐Rich Northeast Arctic Cod (Gadus morhua, Gadidae) to Identify Key Biophysical Factors Behind Recruitment Success

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 1006-1027, July 2026.
The recent markedly reduced recruitment success (recruitment per spawner stock biomass) of Northeast Arctic cod (Gadus morhua, Gadidae) is seemingly largely attributed to the joint negative effect of increased temperature and cannibalism but also predation on the postlarvae by Northeast Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus, Scombridae).

Natural antifouling compound production by microbes associated with marine macroorganisms — A review

Electronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2016
In the marine environment, all hard surfaces including marine macroorganims are colonized by microorganisms mainly from the surrounding environment. The microorganisms associated with marine macroorganisms offer tremendous potential for exploitation of ...

A Multi-Bioassay Integrated Approach to Assess the Antifouling Potential of the Cyanobacterial Metabolites Portoamides

Marine Drugs, 2019
The cyclic peptides portoamides produced by the cyanobacterium Phormidium sp. LEGE 05292 were previously isolated and their ability to condition microcommunities by allelopathic effect was described.
