“…The ability of the coating to control fouling is influenced by the chemistry of the paint binder and the type of biocide present in the coating. These in turn determine the polishing behaviour of the coating and its ability to control the biocide leaching rate (Yebra et al 2006a(Yebra et al , 2006bFinnie & Williams 2010;Bressy et al 2010).…”

The current study investigated the microbial community composition of the biofilms that developed on 11 commercial biocidal coatings, including examples of the three main historic types, namely self-polishing copolymer (SPC), self-polishing hybrid (SPH) and controlled depletion polymer (CDP), after immersion in the sea for one year. The total wet weight of the biofilm and the total bacterial density were significantly influenced by all coatings. Pyrosequencing of 16S rRNA genes revealed distinct bacterial community structures on the different types of coatings. Flavobacteria accounted for the dissimilarity between communities developed on the control and SPC (16%) and the control and SPH coatings (17%), while Alphaproteobacteria contributed to 14% of the dissimilarity between the control and CDP coatings. The lowest number of operational taxonomic units was found on Intersmooth 100, while the lowest biomass and density of bacteria was detected on other SPC coatings. The experiments demonstrated that the nature and quantity of biofilm present differed from coating to coating with clear differences between copper-free and copper-based biocidal coatings.

“…When immersed in water, the soluble pigment particles (such as ZnO) begin to dissolve [77]. The polymer of TBT methacrylate and methyl methacrylate is hydrophobic, which prevents water from infiltrating the paint film.…”

“…With regards to its use as a white pigment, ZnO has a refractive index of roughly 2.00 [50], which is lower than TiO 2 , and why it has been largely usurped by TiO 2 as the most commonly used white pigment in paints. ZnO is still used for certain applications however, most notably as an antifouling agent in maritime applications [51]- [53].…”

Abstract-Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) is one of the most efficient light scattering pigments known to man, and as a result it is widely used to deliver opacity, especially in paint formulations. However, due to the cost of TiO 2 , dwindling resources, and an energy intensive manufacturing process which produces undesirable by-products, substitutes are required to maintain a source of white pigment in the future and to comply with changing sustainability legislation. Many substitutes exist, including kaolin (both untreated and calcined), and hollow latex spheres. These, along with other alternatives, are reviewed.
