What is fouling


According to Marine Paint research, is defined as: A particular species adhering to and growing on a hull depends on the waters through which the vessel moves, the season, and how much time the vessel spends in port.
Bacteria, cyanobacteria, diatoms (unicellular algae), and protozoans (unicellular a...

Paints and coatings containing bactericidal agent nanoparticles combat marine fouling

Scientists have discovered that tiny vanadium pentoxide nanoparticles can inhibit the growth of barnacles, bacteria, and algae on surfaces in contact with water, such as ship hulls, sea buoys, or offshore platforms. Their experiments showed that steel plates to which a coating containing dispersed v...

Marine paints: The particular case of antifouling paints

Elisabete Almeida,Teresa C. Diamantino, Orlando de Sousa


Abstract

The authors present a general overview of marine paints, paying particular attention to the case of antifouling paints. After locating these paints in the anticorrosive protection systems used on the underwater parts of ships and/or oth...
